Promise in all four maiden runs in 2022 for Joseph O'Brien at 1m-1m4f at Dundalk and at the Curragh; off 657 days and ran poorly on sole start for current yard at Galway last August; now returns from another absence and can only be watched on handicap debut. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Dam is Ascot Gold Cup winner Estimate; inconsistent for Sir Michael Stoute in 2024; beaten on the nod at Leopardstown (1m4f) last May on debut for new yard, after which he was all the rage for this race but it was a nightmare for favourite backers, as he was shuffled back (from stall 1) and towards the rear entering straight before running on nicely until denied any room again in the last half furlong; absent since but same mark today and he is surely capable of significantly better; granted better luck, he should have a big shout. |
9/4 |
|
9th 15 (1) |
17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Dam is Ascot Gold Cup winner Estimate; inconsistent for Sir Michael Stoute last term, best efforts when second on good to firm in June and drubbing his opponents over 1m6f on AW in August; tailed off in the Melrose at York (6-1) final 3yo outing but made a bright start for new yard when beaten on the nod at Leopardstown (1m4f) last month; needs improvement but there is a great deal to suggest he arrives here with major potential as a stayer. |
7/2 |

16th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Wide margin AW winner at Wolverhampton (1m6f) off 81 for Michael Stoute last August and 11lb higher now; best turf effort a 0.5l second of 6 at Windsor (11.5f, gd-fm); lacks a run but respected on debut for Willie Mullins. |

11st 12lb |
An 80-rated Flat winner ran fine races in his first three hurdle attempts last autumn but was poor in a hood at this track when last seen; however, has a chance if restored to best on return; first-string for a yard that had a Punchestown winner. |

81-rated Flat horse has been placed on latest three of four attempts hurdling, most recently chasing home a 6l winner at Punchestown; tried hooded now and place claims again, more needed to play a major role in a stronger maiden. |

Solid strike rate on the AW (4-8) but remains a maiden on turf after seven starts; however, ran an excellent race to finish a 4l second of 12 in this headgear at the Curragh last time (1m2f, gd-fm); enters calculations off the same mark here. |

All four wins on AW; weak turf record (0-6) is a concern; booking of the very experienced Siobhan Rutledge is the main positive; new headgear combination. |

Seven-time Flat winner won a Leopardstown maiden hurdle in March 2023 (2m, good to yielding) but generally moderate form over hurdles since then; the same can be said of his recent outing on the level at Leopardstown last month. |

Four-time winner, latterly in 2023; continues to threaten now and again, as at Galway in August, but questionable whether he wants the ground this testing. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 15y |
8st 11lb |
Four-time winner for Andrew Slattery with last win coming in 2023; went close at Galway in August (1m4f, yielding) when Thatwilldoso won; posted another decent effort at Roscommon last time when third, behind Clear Quartz and Granite Bay; can go well again. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Off the mark over this trip at the Curragh on yard debut last month under a positive ride in testing conditions by a diminishing margin; good effort at Gowran from 7lb higher a fortnight ago when runner-up (well-backed); not certain to replicate that form on AW. |

Has won five races up to 1m1f from 34 Flat starts; fine runs in defeat in premier handicaps at Leopardstown and Galway over the summer but was a bit below that level in the Cambridgeshire here last time; can be keen so needs to settle better. |

Won three for the Johnstons in Britain, two on quick turf at 1m2f-1m4f; best run for this yard here over 1m7f (good) for this rider last July; poor since and never in contention on seasonal reappearance at Cork (1m, good); this trip more suitable and 3lb below last win but others look more likely. |

Flat and 2m maiden hurdle winner was only beaten 10l in last year's Fred Winter, but has struggled since; while going a longer trip in first-time blinkers wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, perhaps the trainer knows better. |

Dual-purpose filly is 1-6 on the Flat, the win coming off 58 at Listowel (1m4f, good); narrowly denied off 10lb higher at Killarney (1m3f, heavy) in follow up bid and raised another 5lb; out of form in last two runs over hurdles but return to this sphere could spark a revival. |
