Just 1-24 over hurdles and that win came in 2024; finished last season bang out of form and similar story at Galway after a break on latest; hard to fancy. |

11st 5lb |
Maiden point winner in March (3m, soft), but a 20-race maiden under rules; last of two finishers at Pusk on latest point start; stiffer task here. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Out of form over hurdles/on the Flat in Ireland last year; caused 16-1 surprise in point at Hutton Rudby (3m, soft) last month, her third start for this stable, but was safely held on next outing; not easy to predict on chase debut. |

15th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |
10st 9lb |
Better than ever last year, winning over hurdles twice, including here (2m6f, yielding); 0-12 chasing but stayed on for third over C&D in May after racing wide; and would have got closer at Wexford last time but for repeated jumping errors; place chance if jumps better. |

11st 6lb |
Won a valuable handicap chase at Listowel (2m6f, soft to heavy; handles good) in September when 6lb lower and kept on well to finish third back over hurdles last time; not entirely dismissed, though he is an 11yo now and does lack recent match practice. |

10st 0lb |
Course winner over 3m; the last of three hurdle wins came in 2024; a good run over 3m last month but was poor since, both back here; a squeak if back in form. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Won back-to-back handicaps in 2024, the first of them was this race off 10lb higher (good) and at Tramore off 17lb higher (2m5f, good to yielding); lost her way badly following that but there were positive signs in her 3l third of 14 over C&D last time, staying on strongly; well handicapped if backing it up. |
