Point form was nothing to shout about but he made all the running for a debut success under rules at Cork (2m1f, good); had the run of things that day but he's unexposed. |

Finally made the breakthrough in 2m3f Downpatrick maiden in June (good) at the 35th attempt; most recently just okay effort at Kilbeggan back in handicap company; more needed. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 12lb |
Finally made the breakthrough in a Downpatrick maiden hurdle in June (2m3f, good) at the 35th attempt, having placed on numerous occasions; didn't bring that momentum to a beginners' chase at Wexford last time when pulled up after he made a bad mistake at the first and lost his action; overall record is off-putting. |

Long-standing maiden finally got it done when winning readily over hurdles last month; second in three of 13 chase starts, and some fair runs over fences without being placed in April/May; these types can kick on once they get their heads in front, and Donoghue prefers him to Sophia Rose. |

Below form on the Flat three weeks ago and now 0-13 since joining Iain Jardine but was second to Alvesta over C&D (good) on latest hurdling start and is also suited by slower ground; no surprise if he features. |

10st 2lb |
Did well to finish third after stumbling at the start at Carlisle (1m1f, good) last month and has since run well over hurdles; no issue with track, trip or ground conditions and has possibilities for a trainer who has won this three times since 2021. |

Sole win over hurdles came here in 2024; also ran well on the Flat here when second in a 1m4f maiden when 1.25l ahead of Dream On Baby; well below that level at Galway since so has to rebound. |

Poor strike rate hurdling (1-25) and pick of three recent runs on the Flat when staying on late into second in 1m4f Tramore maiden (found to have in blood in both nostrils); interesting but this is a stronger maiden. |

Best of his three efforts came when fifth of 16 in a maiden hurdle at Cork earlier this month (In The Trenches runner-up); no obvious reason why he'll reverse the form here. |

Just held on when scoring at Punchestown (2m3f, gd-yld) in June off 92; weakened late over 2m4f off 3lb higher at Wexford latest; not sure this step up in trip will suit on that evidence. |

Has run well the last twice since returning from a break; particularly when pulling 25L clear with one other when second at Wexford last time; raised 6lb for that but she appears to have responded well to the application of blinkers and she may get her day in the sun here; jockey has plenty of point-to-point experience. |

Battled to gain a first win when successful over hurdles at Limerick in December off 84 (2m6f, soft to heavy); tailed off at Punchestown next time; bounced back when runner-up back at Limerick last time (2m7f, heavy), had Mickey Hulie 17l behind in third that day; best form on softer. |
