10th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 80y |
11st 2lb |
Fair novice chaser before going pointing and hunter chasing; again showed his affinity for Killarney when winning a hunter chase there in May before disappointing at Listowel; more needed. |

Has a particular fondness for Killarney and won for the fifth time there three weeks ago, where he beat What Path by 1.5l over a slightly shorter trip; was just doing enough, so headgear back on; likes good ground. |

Another in here with plenty of back-class; visored when disappointing at the Cheltenham Festival but that aid was missing when 15l behind Journey With Me at Cork, where 2m4f was on the sharp side; better expected here. |

Dual bumper and hurdle (including here) winner was a winner at Killarney and Tramore last summer over fences while was runner-up in a Galway Grade 3 novice chase in between; has gone well fresh and is respected on return. |

1st 4 |
16th Aug 2024 Good 2m 5f 180y |
10st 12lb |
1-3 in chases; won a mares' beginners' chase at Killarney in May (2m5f, good); jumped left on second chase start at Punchestown but better at Galway on latest, beat just 0.5l in a Grade 3 novice by a solid yardstick in Ashdale Bob; gets weight from the boys here but needs to improve again to take a hand in the finish. |
2/1 |

2nd 7 |
1st Aug 2024 Good 2m 2f 54y |
10st 8lb |
Listed winner over hurdles made the ideal start over fences with a comfortable success over 2m5f at Killarney in May; jumped left and probably didn't stay effectively behind Reverend Hubert at Punchestown; will be more at home over this shorter trip than most and likely to go well. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |

Much better chaser than hurdler, three wins include handicaps at Punchestown and Cork in 2024; long losing run since, but has shown himself in good heart on the Flat of late. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Bumper winner in 2020; best known as a three-time chase scorer, runner-up five times on the Flat (three times at Killarney, twice at this venue); probably ran close to his handicap mark when third in a 1m7f maiden at Leopardstown last month. |

Bumper winner in 2020; best known as a three-time chase scorer, runner-up five times on the Flat (three times at Killarney, twice at Tramore); vulnerable in a race of this type at the age of ten. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
10st 12lb |
One of three for trainer; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; moderate efforts in the autumn and two outings back from a break haven't been much better. |
25/1 |

8th 6 |
7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Dual-purpose type; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; best effort last year when fourth in a 24-runner handicap chase at the Punchestown festival; not a bad run at Fairyhouse after a break; however, Come On The Lads seems to be the yard's number one. |

Dual-purpose type; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; best effort last year when fourth in a 24-runner handicap chase at the Punchestown festival. best form over shorter than this and on better ground; lacks a recent run. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Another ex-Gavin Cromwell inmate who secured narrow win over fences at Punchestown (2m, good to yielding) in June; 0-5 for this yard but February's close second of five at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) on penultimate start was a creditable effort; stable in fine form. |
7/1 |

3rd 5 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Hurdle/chase winner for Gavin Cromwell who has improved with each of his four runs for this yard, most recently close second of five at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft); that looked a warm little race and he's respected. |

Hurdles winner has been placed only twice in 12 chase starts, notably beaten a neck in 2m2f Limerick novice at Christmas on testing ground; pulled up in first-time cheekpieces (now discarded) on Kilbeggan comeback in late May and questions to answer now, especially on this quicker ground. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 80y |

On losing run since a maiden hurdle win at Leopardstown in December 2023; beaten 33l when last seen at Punchestown in June; likely best watched on debut for new yard. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
10st 11lb |
Won this in 2024 off 1lb higher mark and timely return to form last month under forcing tactics, winning over 2m at Punchestown and only denied by a neck off 5lb higher over 2m4f at Kilbeggan; up another 3lb but likely big player again. |
9/2 |

2nd 12 |
15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 6lb |
Back to form with third chase win in fine style at Punchestown nine days ago (20.5f, yielding), making all to win by 3.25l; 5lb rise for that, but won this race off this mark last year; obvious chance if in the same form but consistency not a strong suit. |
4/1 |

1st 5 |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 50y |
10st 13lb |
2-30 over fences, both wins coming at Kilbeggan; is 5lb below his latest win but he's been out of sorts for a while and not an ideal preparation for this when falling at the fifth fence at Kilbeggan just six days ago; fourth in this last year but others make more appeal. |

10st 6lb |
Dual chase winner but hasn't won since taking a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024; was second to Femme Magnifique at Tramore and the ground was maybe too soft at Roscommon since; could rebound and be a player. |
20/1 |

10th 6 |
8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 100y |

Six wins include two over fences and was runner-up at Tramore ten days ago on good ground; handles these conditions. |

2nd 8 |
29th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 110y |
11st 0lb |
Two chase wins in 2024 (including a novice over C&D) but it has been slim pickings since then; no joy in 2025 and modest run at Wexford on return from a break on latest; on a dangerous mark but needs a revival. |
