Hasn't been at his best on the Flat the last twice (effective in that scene) but he's talented and won a 2m maiden hurdle at Navan in March without much fuss, fulfilling the promise of his initial effort in a good race at Naas; just a worry that those best efforts have been in the mud and this trip represents a new venture. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Ran creditably at Ayr in the latest start of his light 2026 campaign; steps back up in grade but could go well returned to this scenario, having gained his most recent success over C&D (in April). |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Has mainly proved consistent since joining this yard (233213126101), his latest win coming by a head at Ripon (1m, good to soft) in April; probably needs a bit more back up in grade and may not want the ground to dry out too much. |

11st 4lb |
Not the most consistent sort but enters calculations on last month's second over 2m at this venue, when those behind included King Kali (fourth) who was returning after a lengthy absence; three seconds from his last five starts, but lesser displays in between; blinkered first time. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 100y |

Dual-purpose; sole success over hurdles came off 3lb lower at Bellewstown (2m1f, gd-yld) in April 2024 for Gavin Cromwell; yet to really hit form for this stable, though did run ok over 2m4f here in August; drops in trip and place chance if repeats that off 3lb lower. |

A dual C&D winner, his trainer's local track; last year's form also included a second placing behind Cornmarket over C&D; probably needed the run here in May, and was much improved when winning in June; up 5lb for that; deserves respect. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |

Dual-purpose; 3-11 over hurdles; solid Flat run at Navan (1m6f, heavy) after 156-day absence in March but has failed to fire in two handicap hurdles since; remains 9lb above last winning mark; may need respite from the handicapper. |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Reached the frame twice in similar races on AW under Brodie Hampson in February; well treated on those efforts but hasn't found the same form back on turf (good to firm/good) after a break, including well behind Star Start and Austrian Theory at Catterick 17 days ago; the return to softer ground could help but leap of faith needed. |

Down the field in two turf handicaps this summer after a five-month absence; on a dangerous mark but there are risks attached; blinkers replace cheekpieces today. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |

Patchy form since joining this yard and well behind I'd Go Maniac on his return from five months off at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) 18 days ago, but is 9lb lower than when winning at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) for Ian Williams a year ago; first-time tongue-tie. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |

Won a 2m2f handicap hurdle here off 86 last year; made a bad mistake when tailed off on chasing bow in a Wexford beginners' in July (2m4f, good); again tailed off at Killarney last time (2m1f, good to yielding); may do better now in handicaps but needs to. |

Versatile sort having won over hurdles, fences and twice on the AW; put up his best effort on this third start for this yard when second of ten in a similar contest at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) eight days ago (a nose in front of Fighting Poet); shortlisted. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

A fair winning hurdler/chaser for Gordon Elliott but signed off for that yard out of form and has been beaten a long way on his two runs for current handler; drops into his first classified and needs to show more. |

One win from four starts on the level in France, staying on well to make all when last seen in November; bought for 20,000euros since and interesting recruit for this yard but possibly more of a long term project. |
