13th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 95y |
9st 5lb |
79-rated gelding won twice in June at Cork and Leopardstown, both over 1m on nice ground; midfield on soft to heavy at the Curragh latest (1m) and has hinted that this sort of trip might suit, though he's not bred for it. |

4th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Has enjoyed a fine campaign; back to back wins in June saw him go up 13lb but he has continued to acquit himself well; another sound run in a Killarney rated race latest (1m, good); probably doesn't want it too soft. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 30y |

Both wins on goodish ground but versatile as regards conditions as it was yielding to soft when second in a 1m handicap at Galway where three of today's rivals were behind; came from well off the pace that day so it was some effort. |

Added second turf win when keeping on well to comfortably land a 1m Leopardstown handicap on seasonal return (1m, good to yielding); follow-up attempt under a 7lb penalty perhaps came too quickly on softer ground; up 10lb compared to her win but not discounted. |

AW winner over 10.5f in March and her higher-grade third at Naas was a good effort; 1m4f has seemed a bridge too far, though, and long way behind Masego over that trip at Bellewstown; excuse for latest run (1m2f) at Navan. |

Won at Newbury (1m, good) in May on third start for this yard and followed up when unpenalised at Yarmouth (1m, good) five days later; runner-up off this 6lb higher mark at Goodwood (1m1f, good to soft) last time, when outstayed, and he could play a leading role back down to 1m. |

9th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 132y |

Encouraging second at Navan (1m6f, yielding) in August and may have found 1m2f against him when a beaten favourite at the Curragh 11 days ago; potential pace angle here and return to further should help; each-way claims. |

Came good late in his three-year-old campaign when the blinds went on; back-to-back wins in 0-60 company at Gowran (1m, heavy) and Dundalk (10.5f); after eight months off, ran okay when upgraded to this level, finishing pretty much upsides Unterberg and Sinbad My Dad at Roscommon (10.5f). |

Showed significant improvement in first-time blinkers to win a handicap over an extended 1m at Gowran last October; proved he could handle a sound surface with a follow-up success at Dundalk in November; went up 14lb in total; further improvement feasible this term, but blinkers left off here. |

8st 12lb |
Won in fine style at Gowran (1m, gd-yld) in May but paid a price for that 4l success, going up 10lb; soundly beaten off revised rating back at Gowran (9.5f, yielding); eased 1lb and the return to 1m is a plus but needs a career best off this mark. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Turf and dual Tapeta winner who justified favouritism with a narrow success at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form but he flopped at Bath (1m, firm) last time and needs to bounce back after that heavy defeat. |
12/1 |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Course winner (1m2f, good to soft) last September and he has made good progress since, adding two AW successes (9.4f/7f) to his tally; close third over C&D last month (good ground) but not in the same form at Kempton three weeks ago; can't ignore if as effective on today's faster ground. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |

Was hit hard by the handicapper for easily winning a restricted 9.5f maiden at Gowran on heavy in September; good run when fourth over 1m2f at Leopardstown last month and seemed to stay well enough when third over 1m5f at Ballinrobe, getting going a bit late; longer straight here will suit and any rain a plus. |

Rounded off last term with emphatic win in 9.5f Gowran maiden (heavy), pick of three handicap efforts this term when good fourth at Leopardstown (1m2f), tame enough finishing effort at Cork latest; doesn't appear an obvious candidate for this longer trip. |

Yarmouth and Salisbury 6f winner in the spring (good and good to firm) off at least 7lb lower, but diminishing returns in the cheekpieces since and visor is now reached for; she's still that bit more compelling at that sprint trip, regardless of posting one of her better 7f efforts latest. |
