9st 6lb |
Consistent sprint handicapper last year; won off a mark of 91 over C&D on his seasonal debut; raised 11lb for that and took another 8lb rise for beating useful yardstick My Mate Alfie in a Listed race at Naas in April; suited by soft ground. |

Gave Betsen 1lb and a 2.75l beating in a 5f Curragh (soft) handicap on his return, his third career win; hiked up 11lb for that win and now steps up into stakes company for the first time; soft ground fine; place claims. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Ex-Irish gelding whose good spell in 2024 featured a Group 3 win and who ran creditably a few times last year; seemed to need the run at Doncaster on stable/seasonal debut but has work to do to reverse placings with Aramram and Jasour. |
25/1 |

8th 11 (6) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Previously trained by Ger Lyons in Ireland; best efforts in 2025 when runner-up in Listed event and Group 3 at the Curragh (both 6f, good); changed hands for 250,000gns in the autumn; major player if cherry ripe on his first start for new connections and needs watching carefully in the market. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Enjoyed a purple patch at the backend of last season which included a win in this race; had been running well in defeat this season until failing to fire in the Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock; may be able to get back on track in these calmer waters, especially with rain forecast. |

10st 2lb |
Course legend has won 10 of his 12 races at this track and amassed 575,000GBP in prizemoney; has won twice at Listed level this season and second in a Group 2; however, wasn't himself when eased and well beaten last time; has run well in defeat in this race for the last two years but the trip stretches him and is vulnerable again. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Ex-Irish (one win); has started to threaten for this yard and he wasn't beaten far when fourth of 11 at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) last Friday; dropped a further 2lb and he won't mind what the weather does; considered. |
10/1 |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo; has steadily found his form for current yard and wasn't disgraced at a higher level last time at Ascot; could go well as he handles any conditions. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo; slow start to life with this stable but he has dropped in the weights and his last two runs have been more encouraging, notably his Pontefract third eight days ago; should go well. |

Two wins since joining Tony Carroll, the latter in a small-field Class 4 at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) in May; solid effort from a less-than-ideal draw in the Epsom Dash in June; off since but he has run well after short break before. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 5f 3y |
9st 7lb |
Locally trained three-time C&D winner; won here on latest off 73 under Colin Keane and mark left unchanged; won't mind if it rains and she won this race last year off 1lb lower; obvious chance again. |
3/1 |
|
1st 4 (5) |
26th Aug 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 3y |
9st 7lb |
Both wins from the front over C&D, her local track, most recently last October off 72; quiet season so far (out of depth on first run) but sure to have been primed for her return to this track and Keane back on. |
4/1 |
