13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Four AW wins in Ireland in 2024 (10.7f-1m4f), all in blinkers; modest hurdle form for Ben Pauling in 2025; makes his stable debut after 205 days off and he goes without headgear. |

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. |

10st 0lb |
Off the mark at the eighth attempt in a C&D maiden last week (Ozark Daze behind); much worse off at the weights with that rival back in handicap company; should go well again at a track he likes but may struggle to uphold form with Ozark Daze. |

10st 2lb |
Best form has been at 1m2f but it was a Listed race in which she struggled when trying this far for the first time at Naas 19 days ago; others might be better treated anyway; tongue-tie joins regular cheekpieces. |

13th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 4f 46y |
10st 2lb |
Four-time winner, latterly in 2023; continues to threaten now and again, as at Galway in August, but questionable whether he wants the ground this testing. |
12/1 |

10th 9 (9) |
22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 15y |
8st 11lb |
Four-time winner for Andrew Slattery with last win coming in 2023; went close at Galway in August (1m4f, yielding) when Thatwilldoso won; posted another decent effort at Roscommon last time when third, behind Clear Quartz and Granite Bay; can go well again. |
9/1 |

3rd 1 (16) |
1st Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 17y |
10st 1lb |
The last of his four wins came in 2023; was just denied at Galway but was below that form at Chepstow five days later, both over this trip; 4lb higher but can run well if back to form. |

7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Consistent in Ireland in 2020 and 2021, not in 2022 but the best of his efforts that year make this look a good mark; won a maiden over 1m6f but peak efforts have been over a little shorter; the big issue, though, is over how ready he will be after 645 days off the track. |
