12th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 166y |
11st 7lb |
Not the most consistent on the Flat but useful on her day and three wins to her name, including over 1m4f at 2024 Galway festival; hurdling debut and has been off since November. |

Similar mark off which she won over 1m4f at Galway over a year ago but struggling to recapture that level of form, with last two runs very disappointing; this only her second run on the AW. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Form for new yard this term comprises two placed efforts over 1m and a running-on sixth over 7f; useful over 6f early in career but isn't crying out for the return to this trip. |
7/1 |

6th 12 (11) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Smart 2yo for Wiliam Haggas; won a Killarney handicap in July 2024 when trained by Willie Mullins; two good runs for new yard this spring, third at Newcastle and Pontefract (both 1m), and likely to be in the shake up. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent ex-Irish gelding who's never run on ground faster than good; didn't take to hurdles in one try last autumn but solid comeback off this mark three weeks ago and this does seem to be his time of year; no surprise to see him take this. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 6 (10) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Beaten a nose at Goodwood (1m6f, good; 2lb lower today) last May but that's far and away the best of his six runs for James Owen, who won this race in 2024 and 2025; beaten 24l when evens for hurdling debut in October when last seen; needs a major revival. |

11st 11lb |
Irish 6yo who justified market support at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) on last attempt over hurdles, opening his account; interesting back in this sphere, especially if again backed; tongue-tie fitted on return from layoff. |
6/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 219y |
11st 8lb |
Off the mark over hurdles in a modest contest at Hexham in June; good effort in a 1m4f Flat maiden at the Galway festival; tailed off on his chase debut at Downpatrick; could be a different proposition in a handicap. |

8st 7lb |
Is 0-8; best run for current yard a 4.5l third of 18 over C&D on yielding in August, her second good run at this venue; no impact in two starts since when ridden more positively; could go well on ground she handles if reverting to more patient tactics; 1lb wrong at the weights. |

11st 1lb |
Sole success over hurdles a Fairyhouse maiden (2m, heavy) in February 2024; beaten a head off 3lb lower at the Galway Festival last August (2m1f, good); shaped like this trip might suit when remote third behind Jacovec Tavern at Punchestown (19.5f, yielding) in sole start since; could go well. |
5/1 |

3rd 10 |
29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 58y |
11st 11lb |
Won over 1m6f on the Flat at the 2024 Galway festival; never landed a blow when 6-1 for the big amateur handicap at the same fixture last July; different proposition later that week, only just denied in a valuable 2m1f handicap hurdle; could be a big player if fit and ready. |

Won over 1m6f on the Flat at this meeting last year; never landed a blow when 6-1 for the Q.R. Flat race earlier this week; best form is on testing ground so rain would enhance his chance. |

Four-time Flat winner was placed in a maiden hurdle last season; big improvement needed from his first two handicap attempts at Navan and Fairyhouse. |

11th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Four-time Flat winner ran well in a few maiden hurdles without winning, including at this track; however, has been well beaten on the Flat and in a h'cap hurdle lately so needs a return to best. |

11st 5lb |
Sole win in 24 starts (including jumps_ came in a heavy-ground 1m3f maiden at Killarney in 2023; placed over hurdles before a fair fifth on the Flat at the Curragh on his penultimate start; remote tenth at Tipperary 11 days ago. |

Two-time Flat winner; out of form in that sphere the last twice and held by Arctic Flame on the form of her 22l sixth on her hurdling debut at Clonmel in May; others appeal more. |

28th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |

Low-key effort behind a few of these at Leopardstown earlier this month but return to quicker ground may help and she's back on her last winning mark (also went close off 77 in Clonmel handicap in September); Neve Bennett who claims 7lb has ridden her fair share of winners; could go well. |
