24th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 55y |
11st 2lb |
132-rated hurdler, although only a maiden win to his name, and decent stayer on the Flat as well, third in last season's Cesarewitch; has been hard to place over hurdles, front-running sixth over 2m6f at Galway last time; not bred for this game and stiff task on chasing debut. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 108y |

Is 1-12 over hurdles; well beaten back on the Flat at Royal Ascot last time; needs a return to best hurdle form but can't be ruled out. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Poor strike-rate (two maiden wins) in Flat and hurdling spheres and he went the wrong way in his latest hurdles campaign; however, he ran well in two major Flat handicaps last season, including when third to Beylerbeyi in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f, good to firm); 3lb higher today but 7lb claimer Harry Vigors is booked; like so many, he has each-way hopes. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Below form on the Flat three weeks ago and now 0-13 since joining Iain Jardine but was second to Alvesta over C&D (good) on latest hurdling start and is also suited by slower ground; no surprise if he features. |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (13) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Did well to finish third after stumbling at the start at Carlisle (1m1f, good) last month and has since run well over hurdles; no issue with track, trip or ground conditions and has possibilities for a trainer who has won this three times since 2021. |
12/1 |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
0-10 over hurdles but made the frame on last three attempts, losing out only by a short head on one occasion; placed twice on the Flat lately will be suited by today's trip/ground; good chance. |

26th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y |

Has shown no ability in four Flat starts; worth a market check coming from this stable but surprising if he could find the requisite improvement on his hurdles debut. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won 3yo maiden at the Curragh in 2023 but he hasn't run on the Flat for nearly two years and an ordinary strike-rate over hurdles in the meantime suggests he'll struggle off his current mark back at this game. |
25/1 |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
1-19 over hurdles, the win gained from the front at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) in April; below that form when fifth of six in recent 2m Uttoxeter handicap, though, and others in this field have much more potential. |
20/1 |

26th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Only win in 18 runs over hurdles was in a maiden on penultimate start in April, that after finishing a well-held third in a 2m4f handicap; latest run at Punchestown three months ago is forgiven (tried a visor) but he's unconvincing against some of these. |

16th Oct 2024 Good 2m 0f 59y |
11st 7lb |
Dual Flat winner; off the mark at fourth attempt hurdling with much-improved effort when running away with 2m2f Down Royal handicap in January; staying on in midfield when a last-flight faller at the Punchestown festival latest; absent since a poor run at Tramore in late May. |

Dual Flat winner; off the mark at fourth attempt hurdling with much-improved effort when running away with 2m2f Down Royal all-aged handicap in January; run may have come too soon when she attempted a quick follow-up at this venue six days later. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

Dual-purpose sort is 1-10 on Flat turf; won on the AW at Dundalk (1m4f) off 3lb lower in January and ran well at that venue following that; well beaten back on turf at Gowran 11 days ago (1m4f, yielding); suspicion he's not as effective on this surface. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 161y |
10st 7lb |
Won 2m Thurles handicap in March 2025 for Aengus King; inconsistent before and after that long-priced success; attracted some support at Wexford last month on her stable debut, faded after stumbling three out; some merit in her run at Cork early in the month. |
11/2 |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
10st 8lb |
Won 2m Thurles handicap in March 2025 (good-to-yielding) but generally out of form under both codes this year, latest on last month's yard debut at Wexford when well-supported, having stumbled three out; could be capable of better judged on recent market support. |

Won a handicap hurdle at Thurles in March 2025 but undistinguished form outside that; pulled up on her final start for Aengus King over C&D last time; new surroundings need to have had a big effect on her. |
