18th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 92y |
11st 12lb |
Won over 3m2f for Gordon Elliott in the early part of last season; may improve from a satisfactory 2m4f Listowel run on stable debut, though possibly needs further than this. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 100y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Made it 4-5 over fences with 10l win in three-runner handicap at Stratford (extended 2m6f, good to firm) last month and beaten just a neck in a match at Perth (2m4f, good) a fortnight ago; bumped into an unexposed winner last time and there is every chance that he will again be bang there. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Progressive 6yo who comfortably beat two rivals at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) last month and is now 4-5 over fences; went up another 4lb for that but will be fine over this shorter trip and makes obvious appeal. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won his first three races over fences (2m4f to an extended 2m5f) and, in first-time cheekpieces, ran well enough at Cartmel (2m1f; Krak 15l behind) to believe he's still on a workable mark; hard to knock. |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner on yielding; won a 2m4f Sedgefield maiden hurdle (good) in April on return from 244 days off and the second, third and fourth from that race have all won since; yard had a welcome winner on Thursday at Leopardstown; lightly raced sort should be fine over this shorter trip. |

11th Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Debut Kilbeggan bumper winner (2m, yielding) in summer 2023; bettered his opening Punchestown hurdles effort when chasing home the now 121-rated Major Barry in a Roscommon maiden (2m4f, good) last July; found a suitable opportunity to reappear from a 277-day absence; shortlisted. |

20th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 150y |
10st 6lb |
Won a Kilbeggan handicap over 2m4f in May and has been fairly consistent in defeat since; however, was beaten 17l in a Wexford novice last time and needs plenty more today. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |
11st 9lb |
Dual hurdle winner got off the mark over fences in a Kilbeggan handicap in May; solid efforts over hurdles and fences since; saddle slipped early so Galway run last time is forgiven; has 11lb to find on ratings with Le Coq Hardi. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Irish maiden hurdle winner who is one to watch in the betting back down in trip on his second stable start but there was no return to form at Cartmel (2m6f) in August last time and he has plenty to prove. |
40/1 |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Pulled up on chase debut for Henry de Bromhead in June and sold for £800 after last month's down-the-field hurdle run; still has low mileage but needs a revival for new stable; upped in trip with hood refitted. |

21st Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 89y |

Maiden has posted some good runs in defeat up to 2m5f on goodish ground but opposable on balance of form |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 2m 2f 200y |

Maiden has been consistent in defeat on last three starts; beaten 6l over 2m5f at Sligo last time and this shorter trip may suit better; one to consider. |

19th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Placed in a Downpatrick bumper (2m3f, good) but that was in 2024; rated 87 after three run over hurdles, all at Downpatrick; beaten 30l when fourth on latest after break; much more needed. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 12lb |
Veteran went close in a 2m3f bumper (good) here two years ago and returned to this track on both starts last year when just okay form over hurdles; returns from 14 months' absence but not discounted in a weak race. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Won off 5lb lower here in May (2m3f, good to yielding); bounced back from two below-par efforts to finish a 3.75l third at Sligo last time (2m5f, good); return to this venue and application of a tongue tie may get a bit more from him. |

6th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 168y |
11st 8lb |
Gained his second win over hurdles when landing 2m3f Downpatrick handicap in May; withdrawn twice on good ground before allowed to take his chance at Galway last week but never counted on similar ground when midfield over 2m; back up in trip here, any easing in the ground would help his chances. |
