28th Apr 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 213y |
11st 10lb |
Point, bumper and maiden hurdle winner; off the mark over fences at this track (2m5f) in November; better effort when second to C'Est Ta Chance in a Thurles novice event over a similar trip; good effort when winning a three-runner Cork event; takes a big jump in class. |

10st 10lb |
Point, bumper and maiden hurdle winner got off the mark over fences at this track (2m5f) in November; better effort when second in a Thurles novice last time over a similar trip; can race keenly so not sure will stay 3m but is the most likely to give the top-weight a race. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who came good for Olly Murphy at second attempt, in Market Rasen maiden (2m4f, good) last month; should be okay back at 2m and can handle some underfoot ease; likely to give another good account. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Placed over hurdles and fences for Henry de Bromhead, she was sold to join new yard for 38,000euros in May; made a pleasing start for new connections when second of 11 finishers at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last month, shaping like this stiffer test of stamina should suit. |
5/4 |

16th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Ex-Irish mare who made the frame on all five hurdling starts for Henry de Bromhead (1m7f-2m6f) and was placed on her chasing debut two runs ago; changed hands for 38,000euros in May; leading contender on stable debut. |

Won back-to-back handicaps at Cork (2m1f, good) and Tipperary (2m, good to yielding) in August/October; tailed off in a Punchestown novice handicap next time (2m1f, soft to heavy); not too bad at Cork last month when eighth of 19 (2m3f, yielding); could build on that and this ground is what he wants. |

11st 2lb |
One of eight for trainer; maiden hurdle winner built on a good runner-up finish at Gowran on his third chase start to win a four-runner Wexford beginners' chase (3m1f, soft) at his leisure last time; that form probably doesn't amount to much, but he's not ruled out now entering handicaps. |

Bumper winner who got his sole Flat win at the Galway festival two years ago; fine run back at Galway this year when second of 20 (2m1f, yielding); not a bad run at Killarney following that when behind Ragmans Corner and Pinot Gris but was well beaten behind a lot of these in the Irish Cesarewitch last time; needs more. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
12st 7lb |
Completed a hat-trick when winning at Kelso (extended 2m5f) ten days ago, making it 2-2 over fences, with all victories coming on good ground (handles soft); had a hard enough race there and shoulders a penalty here, so the booking of 5lb claimer William Shanahan looks a positive and another bold showing can be expected if this run doesn't come too soon. |

Dual Flat winner in Denmark and now a dual winner over hurdles after narrowly taking a small-field novice at Newcastle last month (2m4f, good); could be on a fair mark for this chasing debut but he'll need to take to fences. |

11st 5lb |
0-3 over hurdles in Ireland for Seamus Fahey but was very respectable sixth at Wexford (2m, good to yielding) in first-time cheekpieces in March; goes without headgear on this stable debut but has a part to play if ready to roll after six-month break. |
