Dual hurdle winner at Thurles (2m6f/2m) didn't run too badly, having been hampered, on recent run; not one to rule out. |

11st 10lb |
A market mover when an 11.5l fifth here in May and was 11-2 when brought down early next time; he's a better chaser than hurdler, but that's reflected in his marks. |
6/1 |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 10lb |
Attracted heavy market support at Cork last time (2m3f, good) but could only manage fifth; punters likely attracted by now 19lb lower hurdles mark, but dual chase winner is yet to match that form in this sphere; may want softer ground than this. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 50y |

Much improved sent chasing last season, winning twice (including here); sent off favourite over hurdles at Thurles and fences at Leopardstown when below best; again couldn't take advantage of significantly lower hurdles mark here last time (2m1f, yielding) when tailed off; attractive mark but clearly risky. |

Has generally struggled since winning at Galway (22.5f, good) last September; a bit better when a plugging-on third of 16 at Tramore (2m5f, gd-yld) on latest but was 16l behind the winner; longer trip here a plus. |

2-42 when trained in Ireland; respectable fourth under Ben Smith at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) in February was easily the best of her four races for new yard; 7lb lower today but she probably can't be relied upon. |

Dual hurdles winner and has won a chase; never better than midfield here last month (3m2f, good), but much better at Limerick (2m7f, good) last time when a 2.75l runner-up; could build on that. |
