7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Irish challenger; just 1-8 over hurdles but returned from seven-month break with creditable second of 17 at Galway festival (2m, good) last month and has a big role to play under Sean Bowen. |

11st 4lb |
Three-time Flat winner is 1-7 over timber, that win in a Punchestown maiden (2m1f, soft) last season; absent since poor run at Limerick over Christmas so watching brief advised, unless market speaks. |

Hurdles winner is 3-7 on turf on the Flat; deadheated at the Galway festival (8.5f, yielding) before two lesser runs over hurdles; returned to the Flat at the Curragh three weeks ago to bag another win (1m2f, yielding); up 9lb now but should be in the mix again. |

Touched off in 1m4f Fairyhouse maiden on debut last summer (good) but hasn't run anywhere near that level since, latest on handicap debut at Navan in June; placed hurdler in between; mark remains on the high side. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y |

Fair maiden on the Flat, the best effort of those when beaten a neck into second at Fairyhouse (1m4f) on debut; three good efforts over hurdles this year; good claimer booked on handicap debut. |

4yo who is penalised for winning a Bellewstown maiden in April (2m1f, good); 0-4 in the meantime but the form of those defeats reads well in the context of this race, with his latest conqueror progressive. |

2-7 in points for current stable since this autumn, the latter win gained in four-runner conditions race at Mollington (3m, good to firm; first-time visor; odds-on favourite fell) this month; has more on his plate here but top amateur James King is booked again. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 190y |

The best of four maiden hurdle runs was on soft ground at Punchestown in January; needs a return to that form and blinkers might help. |

14th May 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 190y |
10st 13lb |
Showed small signs of promise in penultimate maiden hurdle start at Punchestown (2m1f, soft); took a step in the wrong direction last time when sent off at 12-1 and tailed off; needs to have improved from mini-break. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
A useful 2m winner for Willie Mullins in 2025; yet to show anything like that form in a handful of runs for his current yard, beating only one in 2m4f Aintreee handicap in May; tumbling in the weights but still needs to step forward. |
12/1 |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |

Ran well in first two handicaps and bounced back from two poor runs with a 2l third of 16 here over 2m1f (soft) on latest; this trip should suit; shortlisted. |

20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Irish maiden hurdle winner who is one to watch in the betting back down in trip on his second stable start but there was no return to form at Cartmel (2m6f) in August last time and he has plenty to prove. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Pulled up on chase debut for Henry de Bromhead in June and sold for £800 after last month's down-the-field hurdle run; still has low mileage but needs a revival for new stable; upped in trip with hood refitted. |

Won on handicap debut here (2m, heavy) in November; won again off his revised mark of 120 here in January (2m5f, sft-hvy); drop back to 2m didn't suit at Fairyhouse latest; better expected over this longer trip; chance. |
