2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y |
11st 13lb |
Dual 2m hurdles winner was a disappointing favourite on chase debut at Wexford in July after not jumping fluently when last seen; last win in this sphere came in a good ground Thurles handicap last December off 114; returned from a break with a win on the Flat in early July; chance. |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Dual 2m hurdles winner last year on good ground (rated 121) and emerged from 156-day absence in fine form to win 1m4f Tramore Flat maiden 15 days ago, making all to beat an odds-on shot decisively; very interesting now sent chasing, handles soft. |

Dual hurdles winner last year on good ground, also fair level of form on the Flat, including runner-up in handicaps at Gowran and Clonmel over 9.5f; absent since February but entitled to be thereabouts if staying this longer trip. |

11st 2lb |
Finally got off the mark over hurdles at Downpatrick (2m2f) last May; tried chasing again last month but well below par in handicaps (up to 2m2f) at Wexford and Limerick; needs this return to hurdling to spark a resurgence. |

Not much promise over hurdles and well-beaten off 91 and 89 in last two starts in that sphere, including here over 2m6f; can only be watched on chasing debut. |

Has shaped better in maidens since the blinkers were fitted but was beaten 90l at Downpatrick this month; stable has had no winner since May 2022 and this gelding has very little chance on recent form. |

Twice placed in maiden hurdles in 2024; weak form last year; good enough to win a recent maiden point at Castletown-Geoghegan, but the form does not amount to much. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 5 |

Consistent on the Flat/over hurdles this year, and deserved last month's narrow win at Plumpton (2m, good; only time he wore a visor); can remain very competitive after 3lb rise. |

Doubled his tally over hurdles when winning in a first-time visor at Plumpton last month but he was below his best back on the Flat at Goodwood (1m6f, good) 13 days ago; drops back down in grade with a place chance. |

100,000euros 3yo; third foal from an unraced half-sister to various winners, including the bumper/smart 2m4f-2m6f hurdler Medinas; doubly represented trainer Stuart Crawford has operated a 15% Perth strike-rate over the last five years; hood and tongue-tie on for debut; interesting. |
