Five-time winner, 2-10 over fences; ran to form when last seen in this sphere in November, beaten 5l into third at Down Royal (3m, good); returned from lay-off with satisfactory run over hurdles 85 days ago; versatile trip-wise and enjoys good ground; could be in the mix. |

13th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Downpatrick hurdle winner in 2024 for Paul Flynn; came back from a long absence for this yard with a close second over hurdles at Wexford; got off the mark over fences since at the same track; should go well. |
9/4 |

8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 120y |
10st 8lb |
Sent off at just 9-2 on return from mammoth absence in a handicap hurdle here 16 days ago (16.5f, good) and denied only by a neck; capable off this mark over fences but the 'bounce' factor has to be a concern and has fallen both previous chase runs at this venue. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 160y |
11st 9lb |
Won a handicap chase at this venue last year; rated 14lb lower over hurdles than fences but hasn't been able to exploit that lower mark the last twice; return to this track a big plus though so can't discount. |

A winner over fences and over timber; rated 13lb higher over fences but failed to exploit lower hurdles' mark on return from a 167-day absence at Clonmel on latest; sharper for that and better expected now. |

All three wins over hurdles at Sligo but only one success since 2021 and she's been off 276 days; tough ask given her record fresh. |

Has won a point, maiden hurdle and beginners' chase but lost her form over fences for Gordon Elliott last autumn; no better on debut for this yard but could do better returned to hurdles today. |

Decent level of chase form and bumped into an improver when just denied at Tramore last time; handy 7lb claimed and will handle an ease although doesn't want it too testing. |

Point winner has a record of 1-10 over hurdles but has run creditably faced with stiff tasks at times; made a solid start to chasing when second to a better fancied stablemate at Tipperary; should go close with more to come. |
7/4 |
