10st 12lb |
Flat winner but he's 0-9 over hurdles and has been beaten 17l or more in four handicaps (2m1f-3m) since November; mark continues to fall but he needs the cheekpieces to make a difference on this drop back in trip. |

1st Jun 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Latest of three Flat wins for Jessica Harrington was off 84 last summer; improved of late over hurdles; mild promise when sixth at Bellewstown and then 22-1, dropped in grade to beat geldings at Wexford; needs proper good ground and trainer admits she's unpredictable. |
3/1 |

16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
12st 0lb |
One of two for trainer; three-time Flat winner for Jessica Harrington on good/good to firm; moderate hurdles form for new yard, but her sixth of ten at Bellewstown last time was not her worst effort; in this lower grade for first time. |
18/1 |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win from his 29 starts but close fourth in handicap at Ayr (7f, good) two starts ago and slow ground may not have suited there subsequently; has run well here in the past and could be involved. |

Only 1-28 but it was his second run after wind surgery when close up in Spun To Gold's race here last week; soft ground would not be ideal should it get wet. |

Just 1-26, winning a Navan claiming maiden in 2023; lost her form on AW last winter and poor back there last time; handles soft but not easy to fancy. |

12th Jul 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

Sole win from 25 starts came at Navan in a maiden claimer in 2023 over 1m; highly tried at this venue earlier this year with her best effort being a 1.75l third over 1m4f; poor in five runs at this track following that and tailed off when attempting hurdles for the first time at Cartmel last time; tongue-tie now added to hood. |

Wide margin winner at Down Royal last year off 62 (7f, good); some okay runs following that but well beaten in last four starts and needs to return to her best. |

30th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Won the 3yo handicap on this card last year off 62; 1lb lower now and should strip fitter for her comeback run at the Curragh when sporting blinkers (removed); draw not perfect but dangerous to dismiss (course form figures at 7f read 221); considered. |

Curragh h'cap winner in October 2023 on heavy ground over a mile; encouraging reappearance when fourth at Leopardstown but backwards step 53 days ago when 13th of 15; up in trip and needs more, while could do with some rain. |
20/1 |

13th 10 (5) |
12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Gained first win on final start of 2023 at the Curragh (1m, heavy) off 63; only seen twice last year but plenty to take from last month's comeback run here when staying-on fourth over 1m2f; cheekpieces now added and could well improve enough to feature. |
14/1 |

4th 6 (14) |
16th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |

Gained first win on final start of 2023 at the Curragh (1m, heavy) off 63; only seen twice last year and failed to fire at Galway and the Curragh at around 1m4f; entitled to need this run and is best watched unless the market speaks. |

Of interest on her best form for Jim Bolger but she's finished well beaten in two starts for new connections this spring; lots to prove for now. |

Second reserve; best efforts have come on good ground, including C&D second last season off 47; soft ground against him of late and similar scenario here. |

Wasn't beaten far here on penultimate start over further; didn't build on that at Sligo subsequently and tough race to break the maiden tag. |
20/1 |
Verdict
Despite hanging to the left TISCOMMONKNOWLEDGE showed notable improvement at Naas when tackling this trip for the first time. With Wayne Hassett taking off a very useful 7lb she may account for last week’s Gowran winner Expecto and top weight Rapid Mission who looks reasonably treated for his handicap debut. [Alan Sweetman]
