11th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
2-5 over hurdles, the latter win gained on handicap debut at Sandown (2m, good to soft) in March; may still have more to offer but some of the others here have stronger form. |
12/1 |
|
10th 8 (2) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Unexposed on the Flat and he scored on handicap debut when winning the Student Derby at Curragh (1m2f, good) for Andrew Slattery just under a year ago; largely campaigned over hurdles for this yard and he won at Plumpton (soft) and Sandown (also 2m, good to soft) in February/March under Conor O'Farrell; turned over at odds-on in a three-runner Plumpton handicap when last seen in April but far from ruled out on this Flat return. |
9/1 |

3rd Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 114y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Good-ground Flat winner who is improving over hurdles; won easily here on soft and did well to follow up in a steadily run race at Sandown (again 2m; good to soft); he's now 2-2 in the hood and probably still on a fair mark despite latest 5lb rise; the step up in trip is the grey area. |

16th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Has won five races up to 1m1f from 34 Flat starts; fine runs in defeat in premier handicaps at Leopardstown and Galway over the summer but was a bit below that level in the Cambridgeshire here last time; can be keen so needs to settle better. |
7/1 |
|

30th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Progressive 6yo won at Leopardstown in June and has stepped forward again in thee runs in defeat since, latest when beaten a head in Colm Quinn BMW Mile at Galway; 5lb higher but remains very much one to keep on side. |
6/1 |
|
12 (3) |
29th Jul 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
8st 12lb |
Progressive 6yo won at Leopardstown last month and most recently career-best at same venue when staying on third to Slieve Binnian in premier handicap, having not had the clearest of runs; each-way claims. |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Completed a 2m AW hat-trick over the winter and she posted another good effort with second of five in 1m4f handicap at Epsom in April; that form has been well advertised since so she's not taken lightly eased 1lb after a break. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 5 (2) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Ex-Irish mare who secured an AW hat-trick once upped to 2m across December and January but suffered odds-on reversal when dropped to 1m6f in bid for the four-timer; drops further in trip returned to turf (had form on grass in Ireland) on this first start for three months; others more persuasive. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (7) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Record of 3-3 since upped to 2m, most recently scoring readily at Lingfield last week; incurs 5lb penalty but Jude Fernandes takes off 7lb; ran well over C&D prior to the hat-trick; progressing well on AW and commands respect. |

10st 2lb |
AW winner, showed potential for turf success with several good Curragh runs last season; beaten favourite in races at Limerick and the Curragh this season for this stable; seems risky but could feature; competing from a new career-low, 23lb below initial mark after debut win. |
6/1 |

23 (17) |
23rd May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |

10st 0lb |
Won at Tramore last month off 10lb lower; not in the same form since and was well held in a Roscommon claimer 12 days ago; may be in handicapper's grip for now. |
12/1 |
|
5th 9 (1) |
18th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 94y |
9st 0lb |
Three-time Flat winner, went up 11lb for a convincing success in a 1m4f handicap at Tramore last month; subsequent runs in a Flat handicap at Galway and a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan raise significant doubts; well enough treated by the race conditions if recapturing form. |
6/1 |

11th 1 |
8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |

Three-time Flat winner, going up 11lb for a convincing success in a 1m4f handicap at Tramore last month; may have gone as far as he can on the Flat off his new mark and a good time to go back hurdling; claims on his third in a Punchestown maiden hurdle in June; one of two runners for the stable. |

Versatile sort having won over hurdles, fences and twice on the AW; put up his best effort on this third start for this yard when second of ten in a similar contest at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) eight days ago (a nose in front of Fighting Poet); shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 7 (3) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A fair winning hurdler/chaser for Gordon Elliott but signed off for that yard out of form and has been beaten a long way on his two runs for current handler; drops into his first classified and needs to show more. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Had jumping issues and struggled in Hexham chase on last month's stable debut; now 5lb lower than when placed over hurdles at Stratford (2m2f, good) on final start for Daisy Hitchins but still has something to prove. |
20/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Two handicap hurdle wins for Daisy Hitchins last year (1m7f/2m3f, good to soft) included one off 8lb higher, and an inconsistent profile since the autumn does at least include a Tapeta Flat success and a serviceable chase debut; some positives ahead of stable debut. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |

Out of form in December when last seen over hurdles but looked back in good nick when winning on AW in February and is 5lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to soft) in March 2025; interesting. |

Likeable front running veteran goes well here; last won over C&D in May 2025 off this mark and was beaten a neck in this race last year, again off this mark; showed he retained ability when second at Fairyhouse in May; trip was too far on latest, could make a bold bid. |
