1st Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 175y |
11st 9lb |
Smart Flat sort has won twice and seems to stay 1m2f; a solid run in a Curragh Group 3 in April and now rated 101; has stamina to prove on hurdling debut but could be a player if jumping soundly. |

Two wins over extended 1m1f at Gowran last year (maiden/conditions race); failed to make an impact at Listed level next two starts over further; runner-up in Irish Lincoln on return; unplaced favourite for a 1m2f handicap last time; up against it at this level. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 100y |
11st 9lb |
Sole win in nine Flat starts came in 1m4f (good) maiden at Tramore a year ago; gambled on, narrow 0.75l second on stable debut in Chester Plate in May off 86; ran to similar level at Galway last time; could be a nice hurdling prospect. |

31st Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Good first effort for this yard when narrowly denied in the Chester Plate (18.5f, good); led and weakened into ninth of 24 off this mark in a Curragh handicap on latest (1m6f, good); drops in trip now and cheekpieces go on; favourable draw. |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Well-backed to make it a successful stable debut at Chester (2m3f, good) when the line came too soon; previously won a Tramore maiden (1m4f, good to yielding) for Jessica Harrington; up 3lb for his Chester exertions but the choice of McMonagle and could improve over that seasonal return. |

9st 9lb |
Won a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe in May; twice runner-up on the Flat this season, over 1m at the Curragh in March and over an extended 1m3f at Bellewstown in April; form shown in a good light by the winner Tim Toe when third in the Ascot Stakes; needs to bounce back having failed to produce his best form at Down Royal in June; one of the more likely contenders. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 207y |
9st 9lb |
Won a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe, beating a Gordon Elliott-trained runner who was a Grade 3 AQPS winner last year; form of his second placing in a Bellewstown Flat maiden was shown in a good light by the winner Tim Toe when third in Tuesday's Ascot Stakes; missed an engagement at Leopardstown on Thursday because of changed ground; becomes a strong challenger here |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Ex-Irish; made a fine start for his new stable when winning a Class 5 1m4f handicap at Kempton 19 days ago, drawing clear with an unexposed rival despite a steady pace; not missed with a 7lb rise but not out of the question he will kick on again. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
0-6 on the Flat but he won a maiden hurdle at Tramore in April on his final start for Denis Hogan; has since been purchased for £26,000 and makes his stable/AW debut for a yard that does well with new recruits; market should be informative. |

Flat maiden has run with credit in defeat in most of his 10 hurdle starts; third at Limerick last time and a repeat of that will see him go close; ground-versatile. |

22nd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Camelot colt ran okay on Gowran debut (1m2f) in April but two months later dropped out tamely (blowing hard) when upped in trip at Leopardstown (1m5f, good); back from a break on softer ground. |

19th Jun 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 180y |

Improvement likely from an initial run in fifth behind the useful Eastwatch at Gowran in March; may not match Carthusian, but worth noting that his jockey won this race for the stable last year. |
4/1 |

5th 10 (3) |
2nd Apr 2025 Yielding 1m 1f 130y |
9st 8lb |
Fifth foal; half-brother to multiple minor winner Pop Favorite; dam 7f winner by Oasis Dream, sister to French 7f 2yo Group 1 winner Naaqoos; relatively modest pedigree profile by the stable's usual standards; respected all the same. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo; found one too good when favourite for last month's stable debut here (7f) but was evidently suited by combination of drop back to 6f and refitted blinkers when scoring at Windsor (also good to firm) 17 days ago; 4lb higher now but capable 7lb claimer Kyle McHugh is booked; can cope if the ground softens; good chance. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ran three times as a 2yo for Karl Burke before moving to Ireland, where he won a handicap at Dundalk (7f, AW) in March; joined this yard for 6,000gns and finished second at Yarmouth last month (6-5f; 7f); this is a belated first go at 6f but he has shown early speed. |

Ran three times as a 2yo for Karl Burke before moving to Ireland, where he won a handicap at Dundalk (7f, AW) in March; makes his debut for last year's winning stable having changed hands for 6,000gns this month; market useful. |

Middling runs for Ken Condon on the Flat; well behind in two maiden hurdles for current yard; unlikely. |

12th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 215y |

Two fair efforts in Flat maidens in April for Ken Condon and reappeared when soundly beaten on last month's hurdles debut at Killarney, having taken a keen hold; could come on from that. |

Signed off on the Flat in Ireland with 1m6f win last summer but showed only modest form on first two hurdling starts; was bumped and fell at first hurdle last time; fair bit to prove. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
A heavy defeat over hurdles five weeks ago was his only race since October; however, he won three of his four starts once equipped with this headgear on Flat last July-October; the furthest of those wins was 1m5f and he was well beaten trying 1m6f, but it may be rash to dismiss him as a stayer, given he's brother to Magellan Strait who won the 2023 Irish Cesarewitch (2m1f) and half-brother to Lagostovegas who won this race in 2018. |
14/1 |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |

Progressive Flat handicapper last year at up to 1m5f, winning three races and now rated 93; half-sister Lagostovegas was useful 2m-2m2f hurdle winner and two other siblings successful in this discipline; seven months off. |
