15th Jul 2024 Good 1m 0f 20y |

Seven wins on AW and was in good heart at Dundalk over the winter but 0-33 on turf and best watched after a layoff. |

Irish 9yo who is a multiple winner at Dundalk and is currently in a consistent vein of form; retains plenty of ability but has failed to cut the mustard in three previous Good Friday attempts (all here). |

Much improved this year, recording wins at Navan (1m2f), Ballinrobe (1m5f) and Limerick (1m4f); fair third at Killarney in July before finding the company too demanding in a Galway premier handicap; needs to bounce back from a moderate Leopardstown run; down in trip now; good 7lb claimer. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 1lb |
9yo is rated 85 and is the best treated at the weights here; okay efforts in maiden hurdles on last three starts and won a C&D claimer by 8l on his last visit to this venue in March; hard to beat if replicating that form. |
5/2 |

4th 10 |
23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

Four-time Flat winner who has finished runner-up in four of his seven races over hurdles; missed out on a good opportunity last time (6-5f) and has classier opposition to deal with now. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 12lb |
Decent Flat performer (four wins) who landed Tramore maiden hurdle last year; ran okay on handicap bow in big-field novice contest at Fairyhouse in April; looked in need of the run after a break on stable debut a fortnight ago; eased in grade. |

Progressive Irish filly who made it 2-4 in handicaps with a stylish success at Punchestown (1m1f) last month; runner-up has gone in since so another bold showing on the cards despite a 8lb hike in the weights. |

Has come down in the world a long way since 7f Listed win for Ger Lyons in 2022; started the season with an encouraging third in 1m2f Fairyhouse contest in June but both runs since not at the same level, not seeming to stay 1m last time; drops back in trip. |

Has come down in the world a long way since 7f Listed win for Ger Lyons in 2022; started the season with an encouraging third in 1m2f Fairyhouse contest in June but later in month didn't build on that at Leopardstown; back from a break and drops in trip (has won on soft-to-heavy). |

Has come down in the world a long way since a 7f Listed win for Ger Lyons in 2022; rated 102 at his peak; was running off a career-low 53 when starting the season with an encouraging third in a 1m2f event at Fairyhouse 13 days ago; good chance if building on that. |

Seven-time winner but hasn't scored since May 2024 and has been off since running well to finish third in a Ballinrobe claimer in July last year; record when fresh suggests he might need this. |

Won final start in Britain but poor form so far here in two handicaps here and a maiden hurdle; booking of Keane clearly interesting and could be capable of better in this headgear combination; one of seven runners for the stable. |

Twice a winner in 3-runner flat contests (rated 84) for the Crisfords on a decent surface; bought for just 7,000gns at the Newmarket Autumn Sales and faded badly in straight on yard debut at Dundalk last month; tongue-tied here for hurdles debut and may want better ground. |

Useful on the Flat at best, 1m2f winner on good; respectable efforts in maiden hurdles here in April/May; hard to fancy on subsequent form; very poor run in first-time blinkers at Cartmel on latest, heavy ground may have been an issue. |
