22nd May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 2f 185y |
11st 12lb |
Won over C&D last July and came back to form when a comfortable winner of a Tramore claiming hurdle last time; needs to do more back in handicap company but yard is maintaining its good form so respected. |

Has been hit and miss in defeat over fences in last six months; won over hurdles at Downpatrick last summer off 100 but not as good off a higher mark; needs best. |

Improved with each run over hurdles recently and seemed to appreciate the step up to this sort of trip at Ballinrobe last time; needs more again on chase debut but not ruled out given she's on an upward curve. |

Possibly value for more than the neck margin when winning at Tramore last month; only 4lb higher and is at the right end of the handicap here; every chance of getting in the mix. |

1-7 over fences, the win coming at Clonmel in January (2m, heavy); soundly beaten off revised mark twice since and handicapper slow to relent; others appeal more. |

Showed that he was getting the hang of things over fences when second over C&D at the Christmas meeting; backed that up when justifying favouritism in heavy ground in a 2m contest at Clonmel in January; posed no threat off his revised mark at Thurles five weeks ago. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |
12st 1lb |
Dual hurdles winner; gained first chase success at Killarney (20.5f, good to yielding) when keeping on well to score by 0.5l; now 7lb higher but this represents an ease in grade and he's ground versatile. |
5/2 |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 100y |

Dual hurdle winner who is 0-8 over fences; still made favourite last time at Thurles (2m5f) and might have threatened but for a late mistake; considered, though softer ground is probably his preference. |

Dual course winner, also placed here four times; battled well from the front to land a mares' handicap at Tramore last August (good); probably in need of the run on course return in February; likely to strip fitter now; won here on her second start after a break last year; strong contender. |

Decent performer at a modest enough level, three hurdle wins and twice successful over fences off lower marks this term in Limerick handicaps, most recently last month when patiently-ridden to lead two out for ready 11l win (2m4f, soft); up 9lb but remains 10lb lower than hurdles so remains very much of interest. |

Verdict
Potential improvers towards the top of the handicap in Tell us This and Coillte Aris but preference is for the more concrete claims of TINGARRAN EXPRESS, second to an improver at Clonmel recently in similar conditions. Brownstone is another with solid form claims. [Alan Hewison]
