Two nondescript bumper runs before improved to make winning hurdles debut in admittedly weak 2m3f Downpatrick maiden last month when allowed a soft lead; forecasted rain an unknown and will need to improve again to play a major role here. |

No show in spring bumpers at Punchestown and Ballinrobe; can do better in this company on his hurdles debut. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Hurdle/chase winner who has won four times on the Flat since moving to current yard earlier this year; lacks recent match practice over jumps and that could count against him in this competitive a race. |

Usually races prominently; 4-7 for new yard this year, including two wins on Southwell Tapeta (unraced here); fifth to Shrimp Shady in Chester Plate and ran well again when second at Thirsk last time; each-way chance. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Usually races prominently; won four of his six starts for new yard this year, including when returned to turf for eight-runner race at Musselburgh (2m, good) in April; has excuses for the two defeats, on latest occasion fifth of 17 in the 2m2f Chester Plate despite the work he had to do to front-run from wide draw; one to note. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 10lb |
Hurdles winner two seasons ago; gained a first Flat win at Tramore in July on his third run for this yard, in first-time blinkers, scoring by 10l; some concern that he has been a beaten favourite in two small-field events (hurdles and Flat) at the same venue since then. |

15th Aug 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Bounced back to form when gaining a first Flat win on his third run for this yard over C&D last month in first-time blinkers, successful by 10l; hefty 12lb hike for that but interesting if headgear continues to work; just second over hurdles here on Thursday. |

Won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024 for John McConnell; came back to form in first-time blinkers to easily win on the Flat here over 1m4f last time; has to be respected back hurdling assuming the blinkers have the desired effect again. |

28th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 135y |

Has run well on several occasions this season, notably when second at Tramore in May; below best at Bellewstown on latest; overall record as a 23-race maiden does not inspire confidence. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 40y |
10st 1lb |
Maiden has mostly run well this year; beaten just 2l when runner up at Tramore in May; beaten similar distances on last three starts and needs to find a bit more to get her head in front; cheekpieces replace blinkers worn last time. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 180y |

0-21 but some reasons for hope in her runs this season; was a 2l second at Tramore in May (2m, good) and okay efforts at Cork (2m2f, good) when fifth of 23 and when third of ten over C&D last time (good); more needed to win but definite place possibilities. |

Muhtathir filly cost 11,000euros at the breeze-ups and 16,000euros as a 3yo; dam once-raced half-sister to French winners Cosavita (1m7f/2m hurdle) and Lionata (11.5f); pulled up on debut in Loughanmore mares maiden point-to-point in April; best watched on Rules debut. |

Win came at Gowran (2m4f, soft) in October off 86; safely held next two starts, but fair run here over an inadequate 2m last time when 4.75l fifth of 13, best work late on; merits consideration back up in trip. |
