7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Three-time hurdles winner (also chase winner); 0-22 on Flat; fair placed form last season, though beaten 11l when third in this race 12 months ago; needs to step up on this term's outings at Gowran and Limerick. |

Three-time hurdles winner (also chase winner) is 0-21 on the Flat but went close over this trip at Thurles last autumn off today's mark; can't rule out. |

11st 10lb |
Three-time hurdles winner (including here) is 1-4 over fences; that win came at Wexford (2m, good) off 7lb lower last August; out of depth in Listed hurdle latest but this more suitable and she goes well here; not out of this. |

Maiden hurdle winner for Henry de Bromhead and in-foal mare steadily improving for this yard, winning Tipperary mares beginners chase and most recently second to a clear winner in 2m5f Killarney mares hurdle; looks out of her depth here though. |

Maiden hurdle winner for Henry de Bromhead and won over fences last time for this yard; has a shout on these terms if back to some of her better hurdle form. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 155y |
11st 7lb |
One of two for yard; bumper and hurdles winner on yielding and soft to heavy; much improved on second chase start when going close in a beginners' at Tramore (15.5f, gd-yld) in late May; this longer trip worth a go on the evidence of that run; chance. |

14th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Two-time winner over hurdles with his last win coming over C&D in April off 98 (16.5f, yielding); has been running consistently since then without winning; 6.75l sixth of 10 at Wexford last time (2m1f, good to yielding); each-way chance but 2lb wrong. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 180y |

Wide margin winner at Tramore in April and several good runs in defeat subsequently; behind several of today's rivals in those defeats; consistent sort should be thereabouts but may find one or two too good. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Two wins over hurdles in 2019 but nothing since and his recent Cork fourth (2m1f, yielding) was a pretty remote one; 10lb higher mark in this sphere and others make more appeal. |

1st Jan 2024 Heavy 2m 0f 180y |
11st 12lb |
The last of his two wins came in a handicap in 2020; outclassed in a beginners' chase last time and showed that he retains some ability when midfield over hurdles the time before; cheekpieces now tried. |

30th Nov 2023 Yielding 2m 2f 91y |
11st 12lb |
Gained the most recent of two hurdle wins in a handicap at Kilbeggan in 2020; ran only once the following year and missed all of 2022; retains some ability judged on a couple of Flat starts this year, but set a tough task here on chasing debut. |

18th Nov 2023 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 0y |

Not seen over timber since March 2021 and no wins since 2020; missed all of 2022 and while he's shown he retains some ability on the level in a couple of recent Flat starts, he's probably best watched back over timber for now. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 6lb |
Novice chase winner at Tramore (2m, good to yielding); would have gone close if not hampered at Tipperary on handicap debut following that; returned to Tramore for another win last time over the same trip and ground; up 5lb now but the new trip may unlock more improvement after he has shown some signs of stamina in his runs. |

30th May 2025 Good 1m 7f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Four-time hurdles winner and off the mark over fences at second attempt in C&D novice last month when making all; likely would have gone closer but for being hampered when third in Tipperary handicap latest so potential remains off this mark. |

Back in Britain after three unsuccessful runs for an Irish yard in early part of this year; makes stable debut from a workable mark and is versatile regarding ground but he's tricky to weigh up at the moment. |
