14th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Emerged from a short break for second career win when made plenty of use of in Roscommon conditions event over this trip 13 days ago, clear of remainder in just holding off a strong favourite on soft ground; 10lb rise looks a bit harsh but will appreciate the ground. |

1st Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 63y |
9st 8lb |
Hasn't added to Gowran maiden win of last year, decent efforts twice in conditions events at same venue in June; below best in Curragh handicap latest but can't be ruled out in an open race. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y |

Meets Shiota and Mississippi River on better terms after they finished in front of him at Naas in April; best runs have come at Gowran including when winning a maiden there last October (1m, soft to heavy); returned to that venue last time when a shade disappointing after finishing third of four; appears to be stable second-string. |

Out of a winning sister to Derby hero Serpentine; also blinkered at the Curragh and could manage only eighth of 14 behind a well-fancied stablemate; Wayne Lordan rode that day but he's now on Light As Air. |

8st 12lb |
Curragh maiden winner (1m4f) was touched off in the Petingo at Leopardstown last time by a head (1m5f, good to yielding); up 2lb now; best form is on nice ground so a drying forecast is in his favour and the new trip may help him; towards the forefront of calculations but draw a disadvantage. |

Improving 3yo went close in 1m2f handicaps early in the season and off the mark in workmanlike fashion on latest in 1m4f Curragh maiden in July; blinkers replace cheekpieces here and could have more to offer at this trip; 1lb wrong but rider claims 5lb. |

Ordinary form in maidens at Down Royal (7f) and Thurles (1m); one for handicaps more than likely. |

10th Oct 2024 Good 1m 0f 44y |
9st 1lb |
Only 10-3 for a Down Royal maiden on his debut back in June, beaten roughly 6l finishing sixth of 13; didn't get an ideal trip and is a likely improver stepping up in trip if fully tuned up after 111 days off. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 157y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Signed off on the Flat in Ireland with 1m6f win last summer but showed only modest form on first two hurdling starts; was bumped and fell at first hurdle last time; fair bit to prove. |

2-11 on the Flat in Ireland, with one of those wins coming last time out over 1m6f; that was off a modest mark and unlikely to be good enough to win a race of this nature on hurdling debut. |

Won a Flat claimer last summer and holds a rating of 63 in that sphere; huge prices and never involved in four hurdle outings; worth a market check on handicap bow. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
10st 11lb |
Locally trained 4yo; Killarney maiden hurdle winner last July (2m1f, yld-sft); added a Limerick handicap hurdle off 112 in March (2m, soft); tailed off on latest at Bellewstown and now switches attention to chasing; would probably prefer softer ground. |

21st Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 89y |
11st 8lb |
Flat winner has a kink in him, and has twice run out, but solid seconds last twice and there was good money for him last time when clear of the remainder at Sligo, beaten around 2l by 115-rated rival; ground suits and this is a good opportunity. |
7/4 |

Twice a 1m course winner, the latest in November off 8lb lower; soundly beaten on last four starts, including twice over the extended 1m2f; now drops to 7f for the first time in the 20th race of his career; hard to be sure how he will cope. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |

Weak form in three maiden outings at Gowran; in rear at Limerick when 5lb out of the handicap; 11lb wrong this time, safe to rule out. |
