Got off the mark when winning a Navan handicap over 1m6f but was poor at Down Royal since and questions to answer on that performance. |

Strong in the market and stayed surprisingly well when scoring at Navan a month ago; 2lb rise no issue but this is a better race. |

Two placed maiden runs on heavy earlier in year; however, hasn't shown the same level of form in handicaps and has to improve but down 4lb a help. |

9st 6lb |
Maiden hurdle winner; won over this trip in a Bellewstown handicap in October 2024 off 64; cut out most of the running when fourth over 10.5f in November on second AW start; prominent over C&D last time before gradually weakening into seventh; down 3lb now. |

9st 11lb |
Won off 3lb lower over 1m4f at Bellewstown (yielding last year); has shaped as though ready for a return to this sort of trip on her last two starts at 1m4f-1m5f (went close sole previous start at 1m6f); big chance. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 207y |
9st 5lb |
Won from 4lb higher last year at Hamilton (1m4f, soft); has shown little since and was last seen on the end of a 34l defeat returning from an absence two weeks ago at Fairyhouse (1m2f, good); needs to bounce back. |
33/1 |

6th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Won twice last summer, at Ballinrobe off 49 and Hamilton off 52; going through the motions at Dundalk earlier this year; capable off this mark on return to turf but drawn wide and might need this after a 114-day break. |

Ex-Irish 4yo; opened his account with hurdles win in July when last seen (stable debut); interesting off current mark back on the Flat. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-14 on the Flat and 0-6 over hurdles when based in Ireland but was close third in 13-runner Cork handicap hurdle (2m4f, good) in May and will be hard to beat if somewhere near that form here; recently changed hands for 20,000euros; drops back in trip for stable debut. |

Modest Flat maiden ran reasonably in her opening three maiden hurdles but was well behind at Downpatrick latest; worth a market check on handicap debut. |

Modest Flat maiden has run respectably in her three hurdle starts including here last time; isn't the yard's first-string on jockey bookings but can't be ruled out. |

Second reserve; best efforts have come on good ground, including C&D second last season off 47; soft ground against him of late and similar scenario here. |

Wasn't beaten far here on penultimate start over further; didn't build on that at Sligo subsequently and tough race to break the maiden tag. |

9st 8lb |
Sole win came here last September (1m5f, good) but numerous placings include this term at Sligo; not much luck in running at Leopardstown on latest so remains of interest, especially given his record here. |
8/1 |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 180y |
9st 10lb |
1-28 record is a concern; compiled a sequence of seconds; placed seven times in all, including at Sligo 12 days ago; senior rider aboard, with a very capable apprentice on the stable's other runner Eastern Wind; hard to be sure which one will prove best. |
10/1 |

3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |

Decent performer over this kind of trip; had four seconds (three for this rider) and a win last year and he's had a spin over hurdles to warm up; ground doesn't matter to him and should be thereabouts. |
7/1 |
