26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Well beaten over 2m here on stable/hurdle debut in May and ran to just a fair level when placed over that trip on next two outings; however, last year's useful Irish Flat form over middle-distance/staying trips in headgear offers hope he can improve over hurdles now he's upped to 2m4f with a visor refitted; interesting. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Fairly useful on the Flat in Ireland; quiet on hurdle/stable debut and although he ran better to be second at Worcester (2m, good to soft), that was a modest race; likely to need more here. |

Two AW wins during her spell in Ireland; folded tamely and failed to beat a rival at Southwell last month on debut for new yard; others preferred. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Two-time Flat winner who is 0-7 over hurdles; had been struggling to get competitive in this code prior to his third of seven at Plumpton (2m, soft) last month; firmly in the mix if backing up that latest effort. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Three-time Flat winner (1m1f-1m4f) who showed promise in maiden hurdles but his progress stalled in spring 2025, pulling up on handicap hurdle debut and finishing well beaten on his final start for Denis Hogan in May last year; brought down at the first on stable debut after an absence this April (20-1), but still sets the standard with a mark of 110. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Three-time Flat winner who has also shown promise over hurdles; well beaten in this code last May and bought out of Denis Hogan's yard for £17,000 later that month; absent since but he's one of the likelier winners if at the top of his game on this comeback and stable debut; watch the betting. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 137y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time Flat winner on a sound surface last year; not as effective a hurdler (0-6), standout effort when second to a 10l winner in C&D maiden last month; stiff task on Flat latest; place claims back in maiden company but no easy task conceding weight. |

Four-time Flat winner has also won over hurdles; won over 1m7f at Leopardstown in July but has been below that level since off this mark and has to rebound. |

Likes a stamina test, last three wins at around this trip including at Leopardstown last month off 71; hampered start when never counting at same venue 9 days ago but that run can be forgiven and remains a player. |

Not long with Donegal yard and Donegal rider aboard; all six wins have come on AW at Dundalk, but he went close at Roscommon this time last year; best at 1m4f but has run some decent races over 2m. |

Front-runner rated 69 after nine starts on the Flat; beaten 1l off that mark in a 1m4f Roscommon handicap (good) on seasonal reappearance last month; finished second in this race last year behind Magical Zoe; unlikely to get an uncontested lead here but she has place claims. |
