31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Dual 1m AW winner for former yard and went close on yard debut at Dundalk in November; modest form in five attempts hurdling, most recently when beaten 47l in a 2m2f conditions hurdle here three weeks ago; tough task giving weight to all. |

Two-time 1m AW winner for former yard; went close on debut for this stable on last Flat start at Dundalk (10.5f); no impact over hurdles last thrice and 0-7 record on turf on the Flat doesn't inspire confidence; drawn wide. |

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. |
12/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 110y |

Landed a 1m soft-ground handicap at Killarney in October; ran on well when less than a length off Launch Time over 7f at Leopardstown; better suited by 1m and is weighted to turn the tables. |

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. |

Both previous turf wins have come over 1m but landed a 1m4f handicap at Dundalk in February; recent turf efforts leave him with a fair bit to find, but has dropped to a mark 7lb below his AW figure. |

Both turf wins came over 1m but proved stamina for 1m4f when scoring at Dundalk in February; nice prep run for this at Navan over 1m2f and the step back up to this trip is a plus but he's got a tricky draw to overcome. |

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. |

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. |
6/1 |

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 wins here over 7f-1m but does stay this far and has multiple placed efforts over C&D; on a dangerous mark and a recent spin over hurdles at Wexford will have blown away any cobwebs; chance with rider taking off handy 7lb. |

Has finished in the first three in her last six races on turf; narrowly denied in a 7f claimer at this venue in May; backed that up with third placings in a maiden at Bellewstown and a handicap at Naas; thoroughly deserved her win in a 7f claimer here last month; has joined Ian Donoghue and can continue to pay her way. |

0-17 but has looked like her turn is near, placing the last four times over a range of trips from 5f to 1m; good 0.5l second to Gloriously Glam on last try over this trip in May, so shouldn't be far away back in a handicap. |
