1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 120y |
10st 7lb |
Won on fourth chase start off 74 at Down Royal (19.5f, good) in early May; raised 5lb and couldn't follow up over 2m6f at Tramore later that month; drop back in trip here is a plus; not discounted. |

Won maiden point-to-point in February and won at Downpatrick (19.5f, good) on latest; runner-up failed to give the form a boost since but has to be respected off 5lb higher. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo; built upon encouraging stable debut (over hurdles) when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last month and bettered that form when clear second to an improver at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) a few days later; can cope if there's rain about; good chance. |

12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Scored over fences for Shark Hanlon in August 2025 but lost his way subsequently; back to his best on his second start for his current yard when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last Tuesday; shouldered with a 7lb penalty but will be suited by the step up in trip and holds claims. |

1st 2 |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Won over fences in Ireland last August (2m3f); his respectable stable debut was over hurdles (2m) and he was keeping on at the finish; wants further ideally but one to consider under Harry Cobden. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
10st 9lb |
Some decent placed form over fences last year, most notably when 6.5l second to Kyle Valley at Tramore (2m6f, yld) in handicap chase off 79 in May; proved he's in good heart when runner-up in point-to-point last month so he could figure. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 8lb |
Yet to score after 34 starts between hurdles and fences but has run well at times, including latest when staying on second (Early Arrival 8.5l away third) to a clear winner in 2m6f Tramore handicap chase in May; place claims again. |

15yo veteran is the oldest in the field; well beaten in both starts this season; new blinkers need to have a dramatic effect. |

29th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 100y |

Bits and pieces of form off low marks, twice in the frame at Kilbeggan at 2m2f/24.5f; pulled up at Wexford on most recent start; more needed to make the breakthrough. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Returned to form to cause 50-1 shock over C&D (soft; front pair clear) last month and is now 3-13 over hurdles; it's hard to predict whether she'll be in the right mood again but she won't mind if the ground dries out. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Scored at Ayr (2m) in November on just her second run for current yard but well below par all three runs since, only 11th at Carlisle (2m1f) last month; others are preferred. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Ex-Irish; 33-1 winner at Ayr (2m, soft; tongue-tie refitted) in November on second run for present yard but she hasn't run as well since, last time when stepped up to 3m; others look stronger. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |

16-race maiden over hurdles, albeit his sole placed effort came here over 2m1f last summer; didn't jump well when pulled up on only chase start. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y |

0-16 over hurdles; 5.5l second at Wexford last August off 2lb higher a standout effort; modest form both starts this year; others look more convincing. |

Won back-to-back 1m handicaps at Cork and Roscommon last autumn (yielding/soft), yet to hit that level this term in four attempts; returns to a longer trip. |
