22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 110y |
11st 8lb |
Four-time hurdles winner; not solid on his form this term, latterly for new yard; unseated rider at Taunton over fences on latest; best form is on better ground than this. |

23rd Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 51y |

Three wins at Downpatrick and one at Carlisle which was the latest in February; showed nothing in two runs since that win but encouraging signs when fourth at Gowran 20 days ago and he's back on his last winning mark. |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner but 0-14 hurdling, joining current yard after C&D claiming fourth a year ago; didn't count on recent comeback run at Punchestown, entitled to come on for that. |
12/1 |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Lost form for his previous trainer after two good runs in September 2024; plenty to prove on his first run since out of his depth in a Flat maiden last autumn, previously a moderate fourth in a claimer over hurdles. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Started 2025 with a four-timer, the last leg coming here; not at the same level of late but well treated if staging a revival. |
11/1 |

9th 1 (4) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner; drops into a 0-55 for the first time since completing the last leg of a four-timer at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) in February, since when he has won over hurdles; may have done too much early when fifth of 12 back here 18 days ago; very much of interest at this level; stable also runs Boujee Gold. |
6/1 |

Rattled off a four-timer on the AW at the start of the year including two wins over C&D; won over hurdles in June and capable of playing a part off this mark if producing his best. |

Returned to some sort of form on her debut for this trainer when a solid fourth in a 2m2f handicap hurdle at Downpatrick last month; more needed but well-handicapped if coming back to form. |

3-20 over hurdles; shaped like the run was needed after six months off at Sligo on latest when 33-1; remains 2lb above last win and might need another run or two to hit top form. |

Six-time winner, the latest over C&D in May off 2lb lower; underfoot conditions shouldn't faze him but he does need to rebound from a lesser effort at Chester six weeks ago. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 219y |

Course 2m3f winner over hurdles in February; not much encouragement from two Downpatrick chase runs; early days and may find her level in handicaps. |
12/1 |

10th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 100y |
11st 5lb |
A lot to find based on ratings and she has been well beaten in her last three runs at the track, including on chase debut last time when 28l behind the winner; hard to see the necessary improvement coming. |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 165y |

20th Sep 2024 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 9lb |
Ran a nice race when a 6l fourth off 92 at Wexford on his penultimate start, his best effort to date in handicap hurdles; didn't back that up at the same track on latest and cheekpieces are now reached for; chance if reproducing his Wexford fourth. |
14/1 |

7th 1 |
7th Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Showed ability in first maiden hurdle run at Tramore (2m, soft) when beaten 6.5L; no impact on handicap debut on return from a break at Punchestown but shaped well for a long way when fourth, beaten 6L, in a 2m1f handicap hurdle at this track four weeks ago; same mark today and big chance if building on that; tongue tie is retained. |

10st 7lb |
Standout effort a 4.75l second of 20 at Punchestown last October off 80 (2m4f, good to yielding); pulled up on return at Down Royal but much-improved fourth of 21 at Cork (24.5f, good) this month when making good headway from rear; shortlisted. |
5/1 |

4th 14 |
10th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 80y |
10st 6lb |
Standout effort a 4.75l second of 20 off this mark at Punchestown last October (2m4f, gd-yld); pulled up on return from a 138-day break at Down Royal latest (3m, good); may have needed that and not discounted. |
14/1 |

12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Took a big step forward off reduced mark in first-time cheekpieces at Punchestown in October when second to a clear winner (2m4f, good to yielding); respectable enough effort on soft ground at Tramore last time when fifth (2m5f); trainer in better form now, so not discounted. |

Dual handicap winner and better than ever when third of 23 at Leopardstown over Christmas (good to yielding); slower ground not ideal since then and could be a factor here in first-time cheekpieces. |

16th 16 |
8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 10y |
10st 9lb |
Gained second handicap win off 104 at Cork in November (2m, yielding); well beaten at Punchestown next time but improved for step up in trip when staying on third of 23 at Leopardstown in December (20.5f, good to yielding); weakened into a 20l fifth of ten at Thurles (2m7f, heavy); better chance if the ground dries out. |

29th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 6f 126y |

Gained second handicap win off 10lb lower at Cork in November (2m, yielding); well beaten at Punchestown but improved for step up in trip when staying on third of 23 at Leopardstown last month (20.5f, good to yielding); not certain to back that up on softer but respected. |

Course winner on soft ground in October last year off 90 over 21.5f and 2lb lower now; best run since when beaten 6.25l over this C&D in August but no impact in two runs since; visor now tried instead of cheekpieces and hard to know what to expect. |

26th Aug 2024 Good 2m 3f 100y |

Sole win did at least come here over hurdles last October and again ran well back here in that discipline two starts back; however, he was soon in trouble when tailed off on his chase debut at Kilbeggan only last Friday (beaten too far out to blame the trip of 3m1f); cheekpieces tried. |
