6th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Battled well to beat Little Queenie (gave 13lb) over C&D in June and back to that level of form when just denied at Bellewstown last week after racing up with the pace; big player. |

Battled well to win at Navan in June off 2lb higher, safely held twice since in bigger fields at the Curragh; down in grade so don't rule out though best efforts have been over stiffer tracks. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Likeable mare ran a cracking race on her seasonal return in a median auction race at Fairyhouse (6f, good) when just 0.5l behind the winner Tango Flare; rated just 92, however, so looks to be out of her depth in this grade (failed to trouble the judge in three previous runs in stakes company). |

3rd 5 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Eight-time winner including three on turf; won off 87 at Navan last August (6f, yielding); well-beaten when last seen at Dundalk in February; has gone well fresh before so worth a market check on return. |

Eight-time winner including four over C&D, most recently in December off 90; below best in conditions event back at 5f on latest, return to this trip and handicap ranks should suit. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Back on song when convincing winner of a 6f Listed event at Naas (yielding) last October; unable to get involved in two runs at that level in 2026 but he was badly checked back at Naas in April and in better form than the 5l defeat suggests; however, he has more to prove back on this track with good to firm ground quicker than ideal; regular cheekpieces are discarded. |
66/1 |

27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Five-time winner best with a bit of cut in the ground; sole win last season came in a Listed heat at this venue (6f, yielding); may have needed his comeback at Cork and likes it here, but would probably like to see some rain. |
25/1 |

6th 3 (9) |
4th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Just five runs last year but won a Listed race at Naas over this trip in October before a disappointing run in France, even allowing for a less than smooth passage; can run well if back to his best. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Solid form in four runs on turf since an unproductive spell on AW; needs to find extra on the evidence of last Saturday's third at Limerick; previous third at this venue was over 7f. |

5th 6 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 6f 150y |

Dual turf winner has shaped nicely enough in two runs since return from a two-month break; not beaten that far when fourth of 15 at Leopardstown latest (7f, good) and place claims if backing that up. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Did well for new yard last autumn, winning three times (5f, AW/good to soft), and he has run some solid races in defeat in 2026; this will be just his third run at 6f and others bring more pressing claims. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Did well for new yard last autumn, winning three times (5f, AW/good to soft), and he returned to form when second of six at Bath (5f, good) recently; however, he may prove vulnerable in this hotter contest. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Two-time turf winner in 2024, both at 5f on good to firm and good to yielding ground; is now 14lb below his last success and not in bad form when last seen at Dundalk in March; worth checking in the market on return to turf. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
C&D maiden winner in 2023; added two 5f turf wins in 2024; very encouraging third back from a break over C&D in February under this rider; didn't look the easiest mount for a 10lb claimer last time when hanging; he's 11lb lower than his last winning mark and Coen back aboard is a plus. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y |

Won a C&D maiden in 2023, and added two turf 5f wins in 2024; last month's third over 5f was encouraging after a break; every chance with 10lb claimed. |

9st 7lb |
Useful sprint handicapper on turf; sprung a 66-1 shock when beating Powerful National in a 5f Group 3 race at Dundalk last October; no sign of anything remotely comparable in four runs since February. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Three turf wins including over C&D last September and biggest win came following month in Dundalk Group 3; yet to hit that sort of form in three starts this year in Listed contests; back in handicap company now. |
