20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 135y |
9st 6lb |
Good level of form last summer culminated in a deserved success in a 1m2f handicap at Navan; very regressive this season, though, and hard to fancy on current evidence. |

Dual turf winner and thrice runner-up here, including in last year's renewal; form tailed off later last year, but better for his return to action. |

21st Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 75y |

Won over 1m1f at Clonmel last month but has been poor twice since and has to bounce back; seems to handle heavy ground. |

Not one of her better efforts at Gowran; has been generally reliable this season and deserved her Clonmel win on her penultimate start; visor now replaces cheekpieces. |

27-race maiden but was only beaten a neck in a soft ground 1m handicap at Gowran in June; hasn't kicked on since and may need a bit further than 7f these days. |

7th 13 (12) |
2nd Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Maiden after 26 starts was well beaten over further here last time; however, was runner-up over C&D in June so has to get back to that form. |

13th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 100y |

25-race maiden who went close to getting off the mark over 1m here in June; however, not as good twice since and has a tough draw to overcome now. |

Second reserve; belatedly off the mark at Navan in July but form has dipped since a claimer second in August. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Turf winner is 0-4 on the AW; has failed to fire in handicaps (including over C&D) since second in a Sligo claimer in August; others make more appeal. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 116y |
11st 6lb |
Flat and 2m maiden hurdle winner was only beaten 10l in last year's Fred Winter, but has struggled since; while going a longer trip in first-time blinkers wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, perhaps the trainer knows better. |
12/1 |

25th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 2f 150y |
11st 10lb |
Won on the Flat and single hurdles win came in Fairyhouse 3yo maiden 13 months ago; not disgraced in Fred Winter at Cheltenham; however, has struggled in handicaps since; plenty to find with Theflyingbee on recent running. |
10/1 |
|
12 (13) |
16th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Dual-purpose filly is 1-6 on the Flat, the win coming off 58 at Listowel (1m4f, good); narrowly denied off 10lb higher at Killarney (1m3f, heavy) in follow up bid and raised another 5lb; out of form in last two runs over hurdles but return to this sphere could spark a revival. |

Maiden has been regressive in the last year; a falling mark is some help but still doesn't appeal on recent evidence. |

Got off the mark at the tenth attempt over C&D last month (good); benefited from a strong gallop when winning that day; won with plenty in hand but hard to have confidence in him backing that up. |

19th Jun 2025 Yielding 1m 1f 0y |

First reserve; good second at Bellewstown (1m4f, yielding) last October off 55; hasn't matched that in two runs this term; blinkers worn last time replaced by cheekpieces (wore them at Bellewstown); needs a revival. |

Placed in low-grade AW handicaps for Olly Murphy earlier this year; beaten 20l over hurdles on yard debut and then unseated in his first chase; risky. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Placed in two low-grade AW handicaps for Olly Murphy in February/March but was last of six when back over hurdles here (2m, good) for new stable last month and is not bred for chasing. |

Won over 1m on the Flat in Ireland in 2024, but Olly Murphy was unable to get a win out of him in five runs over hurdles and two on the Flat; sold for 5,500gns to join new yard last month; best watched on stable debut. |

Dual-purpose maiden is 0-7 on turf on the Flat; triple figure odds for all six starts for this stable and hasn't troubled the judge; very hard to make a case for from 3lb out of the handicap. |

One of two for yard; Flat recruit didn't show a whole lot in six runs in that sphere (rated 39); not an obvious candidate for hurdling on pedigree; probably best watched on first start over timber. |
