29th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 11lb |
The winner of two bumpers and a maiden hurdle; this is a big ask for a maiden over fences (0-4) but his seconds read well (pushed Spread Boss Ted close in one of those) and he looked in need of further than 2m4f when behind that rival and Funiculi Funicula on his handicap debut at Punchestown; could deliver the career best this race demands. |
9/1 |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 8lb |
One of eight for trainer; dual bumper and maiden hurdle winner in 2024; runner-up on chase debut at this venue (2m7f, heavy) before falling four out back here next time; failed to justify 5-6 favouritism at Naas (2m4f, soft to heavy) last time when a 0.5l second behind Spread Boss Ted; now enters handicap chase company. |
16/1 |

2nd 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
One of three for trainer; rated 134 over hurdles; completed a hat-trick (two bumpers/maiden hurdle) in 2024; finished second/third in Graded races over 3m/2m4f; good effort on chasing debut at Punchestown (2m7f, heavy) to take the runner-up spot despite market weakness; fell at four out back at that venue last time; Townend sticks with him and this looks easier than his previous starts. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 7lb |
Listed bumper winner and disappointing that she hasn't managed to win in eight starts over hurdles; dam was a smart chaser, she loves good ground and has O'Keeffe's assistance, so not without positives for chase debut. |

3rd 3 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |
11st 7lb |
Listed bumper winner at Gowran in 2024; decent efforts in maidens at 2m-2m4f; has been found wanting in handicaps, including valuable mares' race at the DRF; had a big ask at the weights when third to Switch From Diesel at Punchestown on latest (13lb worse than handicap terms); contender. |

Listed bumper winner at Gowran in 2024 (2m, good); decent efforts in maiden hurdles at 2m-2m4f; has been found wanting in handicaps, including when aiming high in a valuable mares' event at the DRF; meets Switch From Diesel on 13lb worse than handicap terms. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 55y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner at this track on debut three years ago; ran with credit in four winners' bumpers since despite a stop-start career; promising hurdles debut for new yard when beaten 6l at Down Royal (2m1f, good) 33 days ago, still signs of greenness after nearly a year off; could improve a lot and a leading contender with step up in trip sure to suit. |
5/2 |

3rd 1 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 88y |
11st 12lb |
Punchestown bumper winner on debut in 2023 for Dermot McLoughlin; has had an interrupted career since, but has run respectably in four winners' bumpers in that time; worth a market check on hurdles/stable debut after another break. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
2nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Won a Punchestown bumper on debut in 2023; was then off for a year before running respectably in two winners' bumpers; back after another year off when an 8l runner-up at Tipperary last time; carries a 7lb penalty but this isn't a strong race and he is a big player. |

Has a chance on the form of her second at Naas in March, her second placed effort on testing ground; possibly 2m5f was too far when running poorly last time. |

Maiden has placed on two of her last three starts; beaten 3.5l when second of 17 at Naas (2m, sft-hvy) on latest; raised 2lb but should be in the mix again if seeing out this longer trip (dam a half-sister to a 3m winner). |

Refused to race in a Leopardstown bumper in December 2023; unplaced in a Tipperary bumper last May; not a big price on hurdling debut at Leopardstown at Christmas (race won by Final Demand) but beaten three out and soon pulled up; hooded now. |

Bumper winner; runner up twice from seven starts in maiden hurdles and rated 108; beaten just 2.75l on penultimate at Ballinrobe; not as good at Roscommon latest but capable of better and she holds leading claims. |

Bumper winner; failed to complete in two hurdle starts towards the end of last year but signs she's getting her act together in two runs this summer; built on promising Tipperary return when runner-up in a 2m4f Wexford maiden hurdle last time out; should be involved if she handles the drop back in trip but unproven on slow ground. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 184y |
9st 0lb |
Bumper winner at four and fairly ordinary maiden hurdler; lapped in his last two maidens but that 10l sixth to Enceladus (Royal Ascot handicap winner who followed up in Gordon Stakes last week) catches the eye; maybe it flatters him, but the market will be interesting. |
