Posted some good runs in maiden hurdles without winning including here; unlucky to unseat here in a handicap last time; has a chance if back to best form. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 7lb |
Runner-up in three maiden hurdles (including here) last summer; made a positive return to action at Limerick in May when a 10l third (2m4f, soft) but didn't find the expected improvement back there last time (2m4f, good, 5-2)) when beaten 22l; must bounce back. |

11st 8lb |
Narrow winner of a 2m4f maiden at Wexford this month; that was his eighth start over hurdles, and his handicap rating of 116 was left unchanged; others are better suited by the race conditions. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Top rated here at 116 and plenty of placed efforts in bumpers and maiden hurdles; not a bad run on handicap debut at Cork five days ago and should be on the premises back in a maiden, although has to give weight away to all. |
9/4 |

Has been solid in defeat in three maiden hurdles lately from 2m-2m4f; could go well on handicap bow; watch the market. |

10st 9lb |
Novice hurdler who has failed to sustain his progress in two handicap attempts; physical tweak (wind surgery since last run) needs to make a difference. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Had useful form in Ireland in a bumper and maiden hurdles; beaten at evens on British debut (2m7f) but under a positive ride back over 2m at Uttoxeter he made a lot of the running for a hard-fought win; faces a much stiffer examination here. |

Last seen 15 months ago when third in a heavy-ground maiden at Clonmel; that entitles him to respect but hard to know what to expect after so long out; has changed trainers. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 7lb |
In good form since returning from a 956-day absence, reeling off a Ballinrobe maiden hurdle win before a comfortable debut beginners' chase success at Kilbeggan last time (2m4f, yielding) with Ho My Lord 7.5l behind him that day; he should handle this step up in trip; he is lightly raced and there is likely more to come. |

5th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 95y |
11st 12lb |
Runner-up in first two hurdle starts in 2022; returned from mammoth break at Limerick with a reasonable fourth; well fancied at Ballinrobe last time (2m7f, good) when duly obliging with a winning margin of 13l; goes chasing now and there could be more improvement in him. |

11th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 218y |

Runner up in first two starts over hurdles but those were in 2022; back from mammoth layoff with a respectable fourth at Limerick (2m1f, good) in May; this longer trip is more suitable; top rated at 111 and the one to beat if backing that last run up. |

11st 4lb |
Runner-up in maidens at Limerick (2m1f) and Bellewstown (2m4f, good), and latest conqueror has since followed up; may find 2m on the sharp side but has each-way claims in the new cheekpieces. |

27th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 110y |

Standout effort a 2l second of 10 in a maiden hurdle at Limerick (2m1f) in May; 2m5f may have been too far when disappointing on latest at Wexford; rated 115 and he's a big player dropped back in distance. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |
10st 12lb |
Sole success came over 2m1f at Limerick in May last year; looked like he might add to his tally when unseating two out at Killarney in May (20.5f, gd-yld) and 2lb lower now; 2m7f-3m perhaps too far the last twice, could rebound back in trip. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 60y |
11st 5lb |
Limerick maiden winner last year and finished good third in the Lartigue at Listowel; easily best run since and just beginning his challenge (going well) when unseating two out at Killarney in May, most recently would have gone closer but for pecking two out at same venue last month over 2m7f; remains of interest; also due to run here yeasterday (3.12). |
