10th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Winner of a Fairyhouse bumper on debut in November (yielding); some reasonable efforts in maiden hurdles at around 3m without winning; not so fluent at Kilbeggan last time when fading into second (24.5f, good to yielding); needs a bit more to win and needs to give weight away to most, but one of the leading contenders. |

Fairyhouse bumper winner; rating of 113 gives him every chance and he's posted decent efforts at around this trip on his last three starts; obvious chance in first-time blinkers. |

Rated 113; Fairyhouse bumper winner last November; looked short of pace when 10l third over 3m1f at Tipperary and last time when 2.5l second at Punchestown (2m7f); possibilities back up in trip |

Back-to-back hurdling wins at Clonmel last summer; also front-running second at same venue in a 2m3f novice handicap chase; wins were over further; on the positive side, the ground should be ideal for him. |

11st 9lb |
Back-to-back hurdling wins at Clonmel in May/June at 19.5f (good) and 22.5f (gd-yld); modest efforts in first two starts over fences; this trip looks sharp enough on handicap chase debut. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
11st 12lb |
Point winner won a Gowran maiden hurdle last autumn before a fine second in a Galway novice to a subsequent Grade 1 winner; hasn't gone on from that and just fair handicap runs the last twice; has work to do against some of these rivals on chase bow. |
5/1 |

16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 100y |
12st 0lb |
Point winner; 0-4 in bumpers; improved for a tongue-tie over hurdles until dropping out very tamely in Navan Grade 3; the form of his second at Galway reads well; not beaten far on handicap debut at Leopardstown; hard to dismiss. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 118y |
10st 0lb |
Has won two of his last three starts, a 19.5f handicap here (sft-hvy) off 107 in January and a 2m3f handicap at Naas (sft-hvy) on latest in March; career high mark now but he looks progressive and the forecast rain won't inconvenience him; 1lb wrong. |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 10y |
10st 9lb |
Promise in bumpers and hurdles before getting off mark on handicap debut at Punchestown in January (2m4f, soft to heavy); raised 6lb for that and comfortably held in a tougher grade next time (2m3f, soft to heavy); tough enough task again. |
16/1 |

4th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 17y |

Some promise in bumpers and maiden hurdles before getting off the mark in a C&D handicap last time; bumped up 6lb for that and now in a stronger race so will have to progress again. |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 140y |
11st 12lb |
Runner up in sole point-to-point; off the mark on hurdles' debut at Limerick in December (21.5f, sft-hvy); soundly beaten in Grade 2 novice at Fairyhouse (2m4f, yld-sft) on latest; early days still but new tongue-tie needs to eke out lots more. |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Lightly raced 6yo finished second in a point-to-point, just fair rules debut effort in bumper here in November 2024 and absent until winning 2m6f Limerick maiden hurdle at Christmas, travelling well and picking up well to beat an odds-on shot; Danny Mullins now switches to Saint Baco. |

Moderate form for Charles Byrnes, dead in the market when tailed off on handicap debut in August; owner likes to shuffle the pack and has sent 6yo to another sharp operator; tongue-tie and champion jockey. |
