20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 179y |
9st 9lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Harry Kelly; creditable efforts on both Flat starts for this yard; 0.5l third of 8 at Bellewstown in April 2025; 7.25l fourth after layoff at Roscommon latest (1m4f, good); sharper for that and place chance. |

9st 9lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Harry Kelly last year; close third on sole Flat start at Bellewstown (1m4f, good) in April 2025; pulled up over timber when last seen last July; worth a market check on return. |

11st 2lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Harry Kelly; ran well on the Flat at this venue on final start for Kelly; has run poorly in two of his three runs for this stable; makes handicap debut; his two stablemates appear to hold stronger credentials. |

22nd Jul 2024 Yielding 1m 4f 178y |
9st 9lb |
Was disqualified after winning a Sligo handicap before running well in defeat in stronger handicaps at Cork and Curragh over this trip; should be a big player back to maiden company. |

30th Jun 2024 Good 1m 4f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Off the mark at Sligo last month but disqualified as rider claimed the incorrect weight; well-backed to gain compensation off same mark at Cork 16 days ago but left with a fair bit to do when staying-on third (Zoffman second) over this trip; 2lb wrong here but interesting to see what tactics top US jockey employs. |

20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 179y |
9st 9lb |
Chase and hurdle winner ran well on latest when runner-up in the Connacht National at Roscommon; beaten 12l when fourth on sole Flat start over 1m2f at Leopardstown in July 2024; would prefer softer ground. |

8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 1f 24y |
10st 10lb |
Best form on soft and heavy ground; won a novice handicap chase at Limerick in March (2m2f, heavy) off 117; stayed on for a 10l third of 17 over 2m5f (yld-sft) at Fairyhouse in April off revised mark of 124; worth another go at this sort of trip and the more rain that falls the better his chance will be. |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner but 0-14 hurdling, joining current yard after C&D claiming fourth a year ago; didn't count on recent comeback run at Punchestown, entitled to come on for that. |

11st 9lb |
Lost form for his previous trainer after two good runs in September 2024; plenty to prove on his first run since out of his depth in a Flat maiden last autumn, previously a moderate fourth in a claimer over hurdles. |

Progressive hurdler when last seen in February winning Punchestown maiden on yielding; interesting jockey booking for Flat debut. |

19-race maiden; ran creditably when sixth at Wolverhampton in November on first run after wind surgery, but has been well beaten since (1m6f/1m4f, AW/turf); hard to fancy. |

Churchwarden, Stariam
Verdict
Runner-up on three occasions, STARIAM faces nothing of the calibre of smart hurdler Magical Zoe who beat her at Down Royal. Kings Hill brings useful handicap hurdle form to this and is a candidate for a share of the money along with Carlo Bianconi who has plenty of experience. [Alan Sweetman]
