9st 12lb |
Ran well in pair of good maidens over 7f; didn't get home on first try at 1m in another hot maiden at Leopardstown but too early to say he doesn't stay this trip and has been gelded. |

Decent level of ability on both outings over 7f, staying on third here in May and raced handier at the Curragh, losing third late on; doesn't appear an obvious candidate for this step up in trip. |

8st 4lb |
Both wins have come over 7f at Ayr, and he surged back to form when scoring there ten days ago; still lightly raced, in excellent hands, and should be at least as effective over this trip on a stiff track; a danger to all at the foot of the weights. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Down the field over about 1m at Musselburgh and Hamilton on his two starts this season; however, his sole win came over this C&D last August and it's possible the return to Ayr and drop back to 7f will trigger a revival. |
6/1 |

Had some high points last season on which he's realistically treated but his return last week at Musselburgh was underwhelming. |

Won a 16-runner Curragh nursery (7f, good) for Joseph O'Brien in September last year, but has regressed since, especially in six starts since returning for this yard in July; look elsewhere. |

9st 9lb |
Sole win (from 18 attempts) came back in August 2024 and he was down the field on this month's reappearance at Ayr; however, he may have needed that run and he's on a competitive mark on the pick of last season's form (including here); each-way chance if he's back on song. |

Only win was in a maiden claimer at Navan (1m, good) in August 2024 when trained by Tony Mullins; three good runs on the AW when last seen out (October) and one to consider. |

21st Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Some positive efforts in his ten Flat runs; went close in a Curragh nursery last September off 72; returned from a break with a 2.5l third at Limerick in July when hampered by a faller and catching the attention of the stewards; below that level at Galway later that month; makes stable debut and an interesting contender. |

28th Jul 2025 Good 1m 4f 84y |
8st 10lb |
Third runner for yard; went close in a 7f nursery at the Curragh last September off this rating; back to form when hampered by fallers and catching the attention of the stewards at Limerick 16 days ago; tongue tie is added to cheekpieces; can't discount off the same mark. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 70y |
9st 6lb |
Went closest to scoring on nursery debut over 7f at the Curragh last year but has been below that level in three starts at 1m since; the step up in trip on faster ground with cheekpieces needs to help. |

Ran well in defeat in three starts at Listed and Group 3 level this term inc when fourth over C&D in May; had Bonnie Moon and Butterfly Wings behind her when fourth over 1m5f at Navan on penultimate start; no-show in a Cork Group 3 last time when Butterfly Wings finished in front of her (1m4f, good to yielding). |

Went close in a couple of maidens either side of finishing last in the Chesham; beaten 17l on handicap debut last time in first-time blinkers (replaced by cheekpieces worn previously here) and he's the type to bounce back. |
