Bumper and hurdles winner is 0-5 on the Flat and yet to trouble the judge; slipped up and unseated at Gowran; lost action when beaten 25l at Ballinrobe when last seen in June; risky for now. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |

Displayed ability in Ireland last spring and this very lightly raced 5yo is one to watch in the betting; however, he was tailed off at big odds last month in his first two handicaps. |

Showed ability for Gordon Elliott, finishing third on Cork debut (2m maiden, soft; 14-1); remote fourth on first start for this trainer at Uttoxeter last September; still early days but this represents a tough handicap debut off a 174-day absence. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
10st 5lb |
Roscommon maiden hurdle winner last August; soundly beaten in handicaps since and poor efforts on the AW in 2026; failed to beat a rival in 1m Dundalk claimer latest; others make more appeal. |

107-rated hurdler won a maiden in that sphere last summer; ordinary enough Flat form and doubt dropping back from last two runs over 1m4f will be the answer. |

Maiden hurdle winner last year has run well enough in four Flat starts including on AW when trained in Britain; fair bit to find with Sir Callisto on recent C&D run, although that was seasonal debut so could improve; hood now re-fitted. |

8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 100y |
10st 13lb |
Lightly raced 5yo was who runner-up in his final handicap over hurdles (2m1f; 2lb lower); sent off favourite for chase debut off this mark at Downpatrick and ran okay to be beaten 13l into third having jumped deliberately; if sharper for that experience he can go well. |

8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
