Progressive on Flat in 2024, winning three handicaps, showing a liking for good ground; two moderate hurdle runs last autumn were on softer going; capable of better now if returning in good shape after a break. |

Progressive on Flat last season, winning three handicaps; shaped as if return to form was imminent when second at Limerick in June but that looks a false dawn now and was tailed off on hurdling debut at Navan last time. |

Maiden after 23 runs; placed seven times up to 1m4f; two respectable runs this season, plenty of horses behind him on both occasions, seventh of 17 at Leopardstown and sixth of 23 at Navan; hard to be confident but may reward the persistence of connections at some point. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |

One of three for trainer; winner of a Navan Flat handicap in 2024 (1m2f, good to yielding); placed in final three starts for Kevin Coleman on differing ground types before being purchased for 29,000gns; brings a Flat rating of 78 to this hurdles/stable debut. |

Back from a mid-season break with sound efforts in defeat over 10.5f at Down Royal (good) and Naas (yielding); worth another go at this trip but very testing ground would be a query. |

The breakthrough win came over 9.5f at Punchestown last month, having previously gone closer on soft at Clonmel; testing ground appeared to find her out over C&D latest however. |
16/1 |

4th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 5lb |
The breakthrough win had been coming and did it decisively at Punchestown (1m1f, good to yielding) despite a wide draw; fine on soft ground as well but she's gone up 8lb and they claimed 7lb last time, so has more on her plate off this mark. |
8/1 |

Maiden knocking on the door on AW last year and again on turf this summer, most recently making much of running over this trip at Clonmel five days ago when beaten 0.75l; quick return off same mark and seems sure to go close with rider now claiming 7lb although wide draw not ideal. |

Low-mileage filly who responded well to the visor at Killarney last time so surprising to see the refitting of blinkers, in which she was beaten further the time before; still one of the more interesting runners. |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Only 1-23, the win coming over 1m6f at Wolverhampton; did go off favourite here two weeks ago and a lack of pace after starting slowly wasn't ideal (behind Desert Friend); had previously hinted at a return to form. |

1-22 with his win coming comfortably over 1m6f at Wolverhampton off 59 in April last year; not much encouragement in outings at this track but a visor was reapplied (retained) at Wolverhampton last time and ran his best race for some time (although still a 3.25l fifth of seven); others preferred. |
