15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
11st 5lb |
Smart chaser for Harry Fry; two point-to-point wins for current yard this year; midfield in Listowel hunter chase on latest (beaten 18.5l); more needed back over hurdles. |

1st Jun 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 150y |
11st 11lb |
Won a Grade 2 handicap over 2m4f a couple of years ago for Harry Fry before losing form; some good efforts in point-to-points, including recent win under this jockey; previously, was only around 7l off stablemate Solitary Man over 2m4f at Cork (disqualified, rider weighed in marginally light). |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
11st 4lb |
No success yet over fences and is beginning to look well exposed, the addition of cheekpieces (replaced here by blinkers) failing to bring improvement the last twice; declining mark but hard to fancy, although better ground in his favour. |
14/1 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Cheekpieces are reached for following underwhelming run behind Ocean Of Mercy at Kilbeggan latest when 7.5l behind off level weights; may get closer now but in general 10 chasing runs have been middling. |

3rd 3 |
5th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 95y |
11st 12lb |
Is 0-9 chasing but a couple of placed-finishes; okay runs this year and his 7.5l fourth off 128 in a handicap around here last time was one of his best (3m2f, good to yielding); sets the standard on ratings. |

Punchestown bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins; 150-1 and tailed off on debut for this yard in Grade 3 Red Mills Hurdle at Gowran in February; well beaten in Roscommon handicap last month; cheekpieces. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 180y |

Rewarded for some consistent efforts when getting up close home for a game success at Kilbeggan two weeks ago; sound jumper and stays well so might not be far away. |
6/1 |
|
1st 6 |
8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 40y |
11st 2lb |
No win over fences since 2023 but is in good heart; beaten a neck at Kilbeggan (20.5, good) last month and beaten 15l into fifth in Galway Blazers eight days ago, may have made a better go of it but for being caught in a pocket between the final two fences; his third start in just over two weeks but chance if he doesn't feel the effects of that. |
5/1 |

5th 19 |
31st Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 6lb |
Hasn't won over fences since 2023 but comes into this in good form; beaten just a neck in a Kilbeggan handicap chase (20.5f, good) on latest; raised 1lb for that and this is tougher but has run well on both previous visits to this venue so not totally discounted. |

3rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 10lb |
2-23 over fences, those wins gained mid-winter in 2022/23 season; fourth in two handicap runs in recent months; was due to run in the 6.30 here on Friday; not suited by the race conditions. |
20/1 |

3rd 20 |
1st Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 12lb |
Back-to-back chase wins two years ago; nothing since then, finished in front of Lightkeeper when fourth at Wexford when last seen (2m3f, good); that was her best run for a while; refused to line up at Punchestown in April, so comes with risks attached. |
20/1 |

4th 6 |
4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 7lb |
2-22 over fences; poor form recently and a 10l fourth of eight at Punchestown last month wasn't hugely encouraging; refused to line up at Punchestown in April; a risky profile and others are in better form. |

Dual hurdles winner for Gavin Cromwell, currently rated 127; has been chasing with Henry de Bromhead; makes Flat debut at the age of eight on his first start for Rory Devine. |

12th 18 |
31st Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 7lb |
0-9 over fences but has run well at times, including when a 1.5l second in this race last season for Gavin Cromwell; 2lb lower now and blew away the cobwebs after a 279-day break with a respectable run at Wexford earlier this month; preferred by O'Keeffe and an interesting runner. |
12/1 |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 8lb |
Beat smart Oscars Brother in 3m hurdle here when with Gavin Cromwell; maiden over fences but his second of 20 in the Galway Blazers (2m6f) at last summer's festival showed what he's capable of; back from a long break and this smacks of a Galway prep, with yard also having likely favourite in this. |

10st 2lb |
Six-time winner, 4-38 over fences; chase mark has tumbled but good third at Ballinrobe (2m4f, good) in veterans race in May and decent run over hurdles at Sligo over inadequate trip; brought down at first at Kilbeggan last time; yard won this last two years. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 85y |

Six-time winner (four over fences) is now 31lb lower than his last chase win in 2023; good effort when third of 13 at Ballinrobe in May (2m4f, good); 2m2f over hurdles last time at Sligo was on the short side for him; place chance. |

3rd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |

Has recorded three of his five wins at Punchestown, the most recent was last June; ran well at a big price there in January on his second run after a break. |
8/1 |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 51y |
10st 0lb |
Was gaining fourth win over fences when coping with better ground over 2m4f at Punchestown eight days ago, recording a third win at the track in what was a messy race; not certain to back that up but 4lb rise gives him every chance (2lb out of handicap but rider claims 3lb) and has won over hurdles around here. |
11/2 |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 55y |

Three chase wins have come on soft/heavy ground; out of form since last win in March 2024; showed no sign of a return to form when beaten 27L at Down Royal last time; dropped 3lb but hard to fancy. |
