28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |
11st 8lb |
Point winner; runner up in maiden hurdles at Kilbeggan (2m, good), Killarney (20.5f, yld-sft) and Sligo (20.5f, good) last summer; poor when last seen at Listowel in September and probably best watched after break in first handicap unless money comes. |

21st Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 6f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Point-to-point winner; consistent over hurdles in recent months, runner-up on three consecutive occasions; touched off when odds-on at Sligo last time, form due to be put to the test by the winner Sophia Rose in the 3.28 contest; officially rated 12lb inferior to Champagne Kid; has the advantage of race fitness. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 107y |
11st 4lb |
Point-to-point winner has been a gradual improver over hurdles, runner-up the last twice, at Kilbeggan (2m, good) and saw today's trip out well at Killarney when only caught close home, well clear of the remainder (yielding-to-soft); looks the one to beat. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 58y |
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. |

1st 1 |
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 |

5th 17 |

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

14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |
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. |

Rated 105 after four starts over timber; off for 469 days before posting modest efforts in maidens at Limerick and Punchestown on first two starts for this stable; best form on soft ground; hood now tried. |

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. |

1st 6 |
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. |

Is 0-12 under Rules; best efforts have come over hurdles at this venue; not a bad effort on chase debut at Tipperary in July; soft ground may not have suited on latest at Ballinrobe; could do better back at this track. |

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 when runner-up in 2m1f Limerick maiden hurdle in May (good); tame enough finishing efforts since at both Wexford and Cork; more needed. |

6th 10 |
4th Aug 2025 Good 2m 2f 100y |

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. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 8lb |
Limerick maiden hurdle winner this time last year (2m1f, good); travelling smoothly and looked likely to be involved in the finish when sprawling and unseating at the second last at Limerick last time off this mark (2m4f, good to yielding); lightly raced and dangerous if repeating; good third in the Lartigue (2m, good to yielding) in other run at this track. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
