20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Fitted with blinkers for the first time when making all in a 6f maiden at Dundalk in April; he has followed that with three solid placed efforts in Irish sprint handicaps; ran well in his one run on good to firm ground (as a 2yo); should give his running but minor money perhaps his best hope. |

AW maiden winner (6f); in fine form since joining this yard; denied by a short head by Red Evolution on first try at 5f at Cork latest; obvious chance from good draw off the same mark. |

20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) for 50-1 win in Listed race at Ayr (5f, good) in June; needs to prove that level of form was no one-off and she was down the field in a Group 3 at Sandown (5f, good to firm) last time, but she's not written off back in a handicap. |
16/1 |
|
7th 11 (3) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
Clear promise as a 2yo and she didn't need to improve to win a Cork maiden on reappearance (5f, good) in April; took a big step forward with 50-1 success in Listed event at Ayr two weeks ago (5f, good; cheekpieces on for the first time); has to prove that wasn't a flash in the pan. |

Useful sprinter won twice last year over 5f at Cork but has been absent since that last success in July; previously won a C&D maiden and is off a 6lb lower AW mark so has to be considered even though he lacks a recent run. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Irish handicapper whose AW double in Britain this year has taken his record since being gelded to 3-6; improving and can't be dismissed, despite being a stone higher than for last turf attempt (which he won). |
10/1 |

1st 9 (1) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Made it 2-5 since being gelded when winning at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; he's won twice on Polytrack at Dundalk; this in-form Irish challenger holds solid claims up 4lb for last time. |

Both wins were earlier this year over 6f and made it 0-6 at 5f when only midfield at the Curragh two weeks ago when they claimed 7lb off her back; needs more. |

27th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Won over 6f on AW and at this track earlier in the year before second to Gazelle D'Or in a C&D premier handicap; mostly good runs since but needs more in this company off an unchanged mark. |

4th 1 (7) |
26th Aug 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 3y |
10st 0lb |
3yo filly has been kept busy this season; won at Dundalk in April and at the Curragh in June off 71; hasn't troubled the judge of late, favourite at latter venue on latest when showing good speed for long way; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces (not latest) and drops in grade so respected. |

4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 205y |

Easy Tipperary maiden winner on yielding/soft in May and decent effort when third in h'cap at Down Royal last month but disappointed over C&D on stable debut 12 days ago; probably needs rain and up against it on these terms. |

Three-time winner at 6f; made all to win on testing ground here in March; solid effort on latest at Cork (7f, sft-hvy) when a 1.5l second of 8; dropped 1lb for that but would prefer softer ground than this. |

9st 8lb |
Reached a mark of 87 as a juvenile for Jessica Harrington after a run in the Coventry Stakes and two seconds over this trip at Navan; regressive in four outings last season; has been dropped to 64 and is potentially interesting if his new trainer can rekindle his ability; hooded first time on stable/handicap/AW debut. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 180y |

Quite exposed at this stage, having failed to fulfil juvenile promise of last year which included two narrow defeats here at 5f; first-time cheekpieces need to bring about a revival. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y |

0-7 on turf; earned a rating of 87 on the back of two good 5f Navan maiden runs last season; now rated 78 after two poor efforts this term; big chance on paper but on this year's evidence his mark may flatter him; withdrawn when unruly at stalls at the Curragh last month; risky. |
