3rd Oct 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 60y |
11st 2lb |
Smart bumper form and a high-profile recruit to the Elliott yard; by no means disgraced but fell short of market expectations in Grade 1s at the Cheltenham and Punchestown festivals, and a similar tale when made favourite for the Galway Hurdle (first-time tongue-tie); that race didn't go entirely to plan and this strong traveller retains potential. |
5/4 |

7th 4 |
30th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 11y |
11st 2lb |
Smart bumper form; fell with race at his mercy on hurdles debut at Leopardstown in December; survived a final flight blunder to win a maiden at Thurles; best of the Irish in the Supreme Novices', though no threat from the last; faded quite tamely in Grade 1 at Punchestown; retains a good reputation and has been a leading ante-post fancy. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 132y |

One of three for yard; smart bumper form; fell with race at his mercy on hurdles debut at Leopardstown in December; survived a final flight blunder to win a maiden at Thurles; didn't get home up the Cheltenham hill in the Supreme last time; this track should suit better; preferred by Kennedy and big chance if cutting out the jumping errors. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Smart in bumpers and getting there over hurdles after digging deep for a successful handicap debut under Jack Stenhouse at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft); 7lb rise seems harsh enough but he'll probably improve again for going 3m. |
5/2 |
|
1st 6 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Unraced on soft/heavy; handicap debutant who looks particularly well treated on his strong bumper form; has gradually found his feet since switched to hurdles and latest effort, namely solid second over 2m3f at Taunton, has received a couple of boosts; interesting contender. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 9 |
17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Irish bumper winner on Boxing Day 2024; ran well in hot bumpers at Aintree and Punchestown festivals for new stable last spring but disappointed (albeit in a Grade 2) on hurdle debut in October and was just a respectable fourth at Exeter (2m, good to soft) last month; still has potential but needs to take a good step forward here. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 108y |
11st 0lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner looked set to score over 3m at Wexford before being run down by Kiltealy Park; similar effort in a Roscommon novice down to 2m since; needs more back in a handicap but considered. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 204y |
11st 8lb |
Won a 2m3f Limerick maiden hurdle and unseated at the first in a Punchestown handicap next time; didn't jump that well and idled badly when just denied in a 3m Wexford novice last time; down massively in trip; highest-rated here but far from bomb-proof. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 3 |
27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 0y |
11st 5lb |
Bumper winner over 2m3f; off the mark over hurdles over the same course and trip in March at the fourth attempt, winning by a handsome margin at short odds; unseated at the first on handicap debut at the Punchestown festival; hard to be sure if he is worthy of an official rating of 130 that gives him an excellent chance here in theory. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 132y |
11st 12lb |
One of three for yard; bright start over timber, winning a C&D maiden (heavy) and beating Blake by a head in the Royal Bond; limitations seemingly exposed in Grade 1 company on his next three runs but back on song with a Grade 2 win at Fairyhouse last time (left in lead after Blake fell at the last); wouldn't want the track to dry out too much. |
13/2 |
|
1st 1 |
5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 10lb |
Has failed to make an effective transition to Grade 1 company in three attempts since in Grade 2 Royal Bond C&D victory over Blake in November; around 2l behind fellow outsider Too Bossy For Us (sixth) when eighth in the Supreme Novices'. |
13/2 |

8th 4 |
10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Proved useful in bumpers but is held by a couple of today's rivals on Punchestown festival running; form over hurdles (kept to 2m) features a narrow success in Grade 2 at Fairyhouse and respectable fourth in steadily run Grade 1 at Leopardstown, sandwiching a Christmas flop that is best forgiven (bled from nose); however, may lack the class needed for this assignment. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 58y |
11st 12lb |
Point-to-point and bumper winner; second on hurdling debut at the Listowel festival; made all for 8l Galway maiden win in October (2m); jumped well when same tactics employed to win a rated event over an extended 2m4f at Fairyhouse in November; lack of a recent run is a mild concern. |

Won a point-to-point and added a Limerick bumper in March (yielding); struggled at Punchestown afterwards but reappeared last month with good hurdling debut effort when chasing home an odds-on shot in Listowel auction maiden (good-to-yielding); major player. |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Gowran bumper winner last season for Willie Mullins; reappeared for current yard in February to lower the colours of a Mullins-trained odds-on shot in 2m4f Punchestown maiden hurdle, that runner-up subsequently a good winner at Limerick; exciting prospect, one for the shortlist. |
8/1 |

1st May 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 94y |

Beat the very useful Cardcounter by 5l in a Curraghmore point-to-point last October; hacked up at Gowran, beating another point winner by 9l, with subsequent Limerick runner-up Powerful Paddy beaten 27l in fourth; Patrick Mullins prefers to Limerick winner Dani Donadoni. |

Useful bumper winner; has been brought along steadily in this sphere, a patiently ridden seventh in 1m4f Kempton novice 26 days ago; looks capable of a fair bit better now going handicapping and not without interest. |
