8st 11lb |
Reeled off a hat-trick last summer at around 1m and better again when second in C&D conditions event in September; two poor runs this term however so hard to be confident in and wants easier ground. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
10st 0lb |
Won over C&D at this meeting in 2024 off 15lb higher; that win came on yielding and his last win came on heavy so while well handicapped, could probably do with a drop of rain. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 20y |
9st 1lb |
Five wins for Joe Murphy, latest of them over 1m1f at Tipperary in October; big prices and has shown little in four starts for this yard; mark tumbling, but prefers it soft and will be of more interest when the rain returns. |

10th 7 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 63y |
9st 12lb |
Five-time winner for Joe Murphy; yet to find his form for this stable; reduced rating now (4lb below his last winning mark) but needs to show some spark before becoming a betting proposition again. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Multiple wins at 7f-1m in Ireland, including on Polytrack, but she hasn't looked well treated on turf in Britain; has a lower AW mark but still has enough to prove in her first run over 5f. |
10/1 |

4th 1 (4) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Eight-time winner in Ireland but all over 7f/1m, and three starts over 6f/7f for this yard have yielded little; takes another drop in class but best watched for now. |
12/1 |
|
9th 4 (1) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Eight-time winner in Ireland (7f/1m) who has yet to sparkle in two 6f starts for this yard, including when beaten 12l to finish last of eight at Windsor (good to firm) on Monday; this trip is more suitable so heed any market signals. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Has a record of 3-5 at this track and ran well enough over 1m2.5f in a premier handicap last time; probably didn't get home over that trip after a wide passage and can do better today. |
10/1 |
|
10 (8) |
15th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Three course wins over 1m; best run this term when third at Leopardstown last time over 1m1f; this trip is a query but can be involved if staying. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Hat-trick of wins here this winter, including two over C&D; upped 19lb for those wins and never counted when favourite in conditions event before okay effort in C&D handicap two weeks ago; has a bit to find on these terms. |
11/1 |

7th 2 (2) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Hat-trick of wins here this winter; upped 19lb for those wins and disappointingly never counted when favourite in rated event won by front-running Carolina Jetstream on latest; bit to find off current mark. |
13/2 |

5th 4 (3) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 10lb |
One of two for trainer; in fantastic form since joining this yard, winning his last three handicap races here; won over 1m in November, and again in December when beating Carolina Jetstream by 1l; dropped back to C&D last time when seeing off Big Gossey by 1.25l; worse off with that rival now but likely to put in a bold show once again. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 90y |
11st 7lb |
Rated 73 on the Flat and a three-time winner in that sphere; good second on seasonal return in a Cork maiden hurdle (2m1f, good); promise in his two Flat runs following that; one of the main players. |
9/4 |

5th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y |

Three-time Flat winner over 1m1f on a sound surface; third of five behind subsequent Grade 1-winning hurdler Hello Neighbour on last Flat 2024 start at Roscommon; runner-up in a maiden hurdle at Cork last month on first run after a break; same placing on the Flat at Naas eight days later; has an edge over Instant Appeal; strong chance. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 184y |
9st 11lb |
Latest win was just under a year ago over 1m1f at Leopardstown, although twice went close on AW over the winter (at this trip and 1m4f); well held in two starts at Leopardstown this summer, although it was a hot race last time and this is more his level. |
14/1 |

9th 9 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
8st 11lb |
AW and two-time turf winner whose last success came over C&D (good) last August off 9lb lower; may have needed latest run over 1m4f here after 105 days off so may take a step forward now dropped back in trip with that run under his belt. |
20/1 |

8th 6 (6) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |

Three wins have been over shorter trips, including here last summer (1m1f, good); only caught late over this trip on AW over the winter so has to be considered on turf return. |

6th 12 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Course winner off this mark last year over 7f; zero luck in running when a close sixth over 1m here on latest; yet to run over this far a trip but her dam was a 1m4f winner so decent prospects of staying the trip; big chance if she does. |
7/2 |
|
6th 2 (7) |
16th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Two wins on AW, 1-30 turf record is a negative; respectable form lately; not a lost cause judged on her fourth in a 20-runner C&D event and same placing at Gowran nine days ago. |
