14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 7lb |
Two-time Flat winner; makes handicap debut over hurdles after not showing a whole lot in qualifying runs; potential improver and needs checking in the market for shrewd yard. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Two 1m wins at Dundalk for his previous yard; only seventh of 12 in a 2m6f maiden at Downpatrick but the RPR he recorded that day firmly puts him in the mix. |

8st 11lb |
One of his three wins came over C&D and has often run well in defeat here, too; second to well-treated types at Galway and Dundalk in later months of last year; well supported into 10-3 when third to Kitty Bear at Gowran last month. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Three-time turf winner and often placed but 0-22 on AW and placed only three times; hard to make a strong case on recent AW form; however, he is so much more effective on turf that a good showing is not out of the question. |

1-42 on turf; struggled on the AW last winter but showed more when fifth at Roscommon in May; failed to repeat that effort at Gowran; one of her better turf efforts at Leopardstown last time; four years since she recorded a 1m victory at that track. |

Turf record is poor (0-26) but more effective on AW (2-25); this year's form hasn't offered much but is 8lb below last winning mark so can't be totally discounted. |

9st 9lb |
Five-time winner (two on turf) effective at 1m-1m4f; had been running well on the AW this year before a poor effort on testing ground at the Curragh when last seen in April; this ground more suitable and has gone well fresh, but yet to win off this high a mark. |
14/1 |

12th 21 (10) |
3rd Apr 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Five-time winner, two on turf, both over a mile on good; in good form on the AW lately, won 1m4f handicap at Dundalk in February; 0.75l second to Unterberg 14 days ago on AW; needs a good pace to aim at and trip a bit sharp; soft ground would be a concern. |

Was returning from 235 days off and making her stable debut when fourth of nine in a selling handicap at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) last month; shaped then as though a drop in trip may suit, but still looks up against it even at this level. |

One of two for trainer; three-time winner here, the latest over C&D in December off 48; didn't get the best of runs when unplaced here in February (5f) and raced wide when weakened into ninth of 11 last time (6f); can do better. |

Added to her two 6f wins here when taking a C&D handicap last time by a neck; up 5lb for that win, and has never won from a mark this high; should give a good account of herself all the same; declared for the 2.08 here on Wednesday. |

No luck in running in the Listowel event in which Linger For Longer and Zabriskie Point finished in front of him; had previously shown improved form to beat Methgal narrowly at Leopardstown, with Zabriskie Point close up in the third; clear chance on that form. |

Beat Methgal by a short head at Leopardstown (7f, yielding to soft) to gain his second win from 29 starts; raised a fair 3lb for that but overall form suggests he's not certain to back it up. |

Three course wins at 7f/1m and is now 2lb below his last winning mark from January last year; consistent runs since the turn of the year, placing in three of his four runs; left with plenty to do last time before running on to take a distant second behind Aingeal Dorcha; decent chance off same mark and kind draw, but this is a higher level. |

2nd 9 (10) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Three-time course winner at 7f/1m; consistent lately; last two runs at this trip suggest he can be competitive here; took him a while to get an opening when running on into fourth behind Aingeal Dorcha last time; definite chance of turning the tables. |

Maiden was placed three times in AW handicaps last winter and ran well above her handicap mark when pushing Gloriously Glam close in 7f Gowran claimer eight days ago, albeit when allowed to dictate a steady pace; handicap mark has gone up 9lb but meets that rival on same terms here; blinkers now tried and drops in trip. |
