2nd Oct 2024 Good 2m 1f 120y |
11st 3lb |
Killarney maiden hurdle winner in July 2023; rated 127 in that sphere; mixed bag since and has finished well-beaten on both chase starts, over 2m4f at Kilbeggan and 23.5f at Killarney on latest; surely capable of better and the drop back in trip here should suit; gets weight from his rivals and has a chance if on a going day. |

10st 13lb |
Useful juvenile hurdler and is rated 127 at that game; cheekpieces worn when collared late at Ballinrobe are left off over this longer trip; interesting to see if this Flat-bred takes to fences. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won a novice handicap chase at Taunton (2m, good) for Joe Tickle in January and fair third over same C&D next time; changed yards last month having had a wind op, and was a well-beaten third of three at Chepstow on stable debut (2m, good); hung right there so this track should suit better. |

3rd 3 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Able to dominate when cashing in a career-low mark at Taunton in January (2m, good), his sole win in 14 chasing starts; hasn't gone on since, but back to within 2lb of that figure now and one previous wind operation provoked a small spike in form; chance on first start for new yard. |
11/4 |

3rd 2 |
19th Feb 2026 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Off the mark at the 11th attempt over fences at Taunton (2m, good) in January, and he's run well on testing ground in the past; below par on his last two starts but drops back in grade today and could give a good account. |

11st 10lb |
Dual purpose; won a C&D maiden hurdle (yielding) in May 2024; raced exclusively on the Flat in 2026; cheekpieces replace blinkers worn for last two starts; worth a market check on return to hurdling. |

12th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 182y |
11st 11lb |
Flat/hurdle winner; seemingly perked up by the new blinkers when a rallying third at Dundalk 19 days ago (1m4f); whether he'll be as good again is open to some debate. |

3rd 8 (4) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 0lb |
Sole success for this yard came in Ballinrobe maiden hurdle in 2024; fine effort at big odds over C&D after long layoff in January when fourth to Voice Of Reason but unable to back that up in two subsequent starts; new headgear. |

10st 10lb |
Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott in April 2024; no joy since but latest Galway fifth (2m, gd-yld) in October his best since joining this yard; dropped 3lb and sports a tongue-tie for return; could run into a place if fit. |

Maiden hurdle winner earlier this year has been mixing this sphere with chasing and on the Flat since, running mostly well in defeat; fell just short once again on his handicap debut at Punchestown last month; up another 2lb but a leading contender. |

Won handicap hurdle at Down Royal last March but inconsistent and has not made a serious impact with cheekpieces enlisted for his two runs for new yard; balance of form suggests he has work to do. |

Third reserve; dual-purpose sort who has two wins on the level, his last win coming in a Galway festival premier handicap in 2023 off 82 (1m4f, good to yielding); not far behind at the Curragh in June (16.5f, good) but well beaten over hurdles the last two times and 3lb wrong. |

8th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 129y |

Course winner on the Flat; rated 132 but no win over hurdles since November 2022; ran well on the level at the Curragh in June but beaten 17l on return to this sphere at Kilbeggan last month; others make more appeal. |
