16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Unraced over 1m and well beaten on stable/AW debut at Southwell (7f) in August; however, he failed to settle and may have needed that latest start, and one of his two wins in Ireland came on heavy ground; no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

Won twice on turf in Ireland and had competitive form in a handicap at this trip; latest run there in a new tongue-tie was highly respectable and he could be interesting on yard debut with Billy Loughnane booked; AW debut. |

Both wins have been at the Curragh over 6f-7f and in varying ground; solid efforts all three starts this year including over 6f at this track last week; the cheekpieces worn then are replaced by a tongue-tie; needs more on these terms. |

Won at Listowel in June; no impact off revised mark next three starts but then went close at Naas; midfield on his two most recent starts; C&D maiden winner on yielding ground a year ago; all nine races in 2025 have been over further; first-time blinkered. |

Finished first past the post on debut at Navan (extended 5f, soft) in 2023 but demoted for interference; unable to replicate the form in three subsequent sprint maidens but the market should be helpful now back from a layoff on handicap debut for new yard. |
