17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
All wins have been at 6f on AW or a sound turf surface but encouraging attempt at today's trip in premier Leopardstown handicap last month, not quite getting home after racing keenly when under 4l off stablemate Rahmi; could go close here if settling better. |

Three-time C&D winner was recording second turf win when scoring in first-time cheekpieces at the Curragh in late June; ran no sort of race there last month in Scurry Handicap however; still respected. |

11th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 6f 150y |
9st 13lb |
Three turf wins include one at Fairyhouse (6f) in 2024; high head-carriage proved his undoing when second off his reduced mark at the same venue on Wednesday; had excuses at the same track last week (upset in stalls, not clear run) when well backed in an apprentice handicap won by Monastere. |

2nd 13 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Three turf wins include here (6f) in 2024; yet to hit form on turf this year but has taken a 14lb drop in the handicap and excuses here last week (upset in stalls, not clear run) when well-backed in an apprentice handicap; no form at this trip (from few opportunities) but not one to rule out. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y |

Three turf wins, none since a Curragh success in 2024; also a C&D winner during the same campaign; no better than ninth in five outings since April; hard to fancy. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 63y |
8st 7lb |
Both wins have come at this track but over 6f/7f; this season's form linked to Genesis and Headmaster puts her in the mix, although several others would seem to have marginally stronger claims. |
12/1 |

5th 12 (7) |
28th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Both wins have come at this track but over 6f/7f; good fourth over 6f here on latest; had an excuse on her previous start, she was reported coming in season; cheekpieces for the first time, may find a few of these rivals too quick. |
12/1 |
|
4th 19 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Both wins have been at this track, including early last season over this trip (soft) and better form when third to Go Athletico in Scurry from out of handicap; reportedly coming into season when disappointing joint-favourite on C&D seasonal return in March, more expected of now. |

Both wins were earlier this year over 6f and made it 0-6 at 5f when only midfield at the Curragh two weeks ago when they claimed 7lb off her back; needs more. |

27th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |

Won over 6f on AW and at this track earlier in the year before second to Gazelle D'Or in a C&D premier handicap; mostly good runs since but needs more in this company off an unchanged mark. |

4th 1 (7) |
26th Aug 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 3y |
10st 0lb |
3yo filly has been kept busy this season; won at Dundalk in April and at the Curragh in June off 71; hasn't troubled the judge of late, favourite at latter venue on latest when showing good speed for long way; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces (not latest) and drops in grade so respected. |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 205y |

Last four starts at the Curragh; maiden over a bit further than this and ran creditably on handicap debut since; dropped 1lb but still needs a bit more. |

5th 8 (8) |
28th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y |

Improving with each run this season, hitting the frame in two maidens here before getting her head in front over the extended 6f here latest; form knocked since and she's not obviously well treated. |
10/1 |

13 (17) |
4th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 63y |
9st 3lb |
Twice placed in maidens last season before an ambitious bid in a Listed race at Newmarket; has confirmed a fair standard of form in two 6f outings at this venue this season; third behind No Return (handicap winner since) and second to the well-fancied Bonus Time 12 days ago; should go close. |

19th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Three-time winner over 5f-7f on turf in Ireland but has beaten a total of one rival in two runs at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) for this yard; first-time hood and the return of a tongue-tie needs to make a big difference. |
25/1 |

12th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
8st 8lb |
Six-time course winner, including twice over C&D, but his last four wins here have come over 6f; however, he did go close off this mark over C&D in May and should get a strong pace to aim at; not out of this. |
7/1 |

5th 6 (3) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 180y |
9st 9lb |
Six-time AW winner; was close up in third behind Clonmacash at Dundalk in April; second there on latest, reversing form with Clonmacash in the process; has the merit of being a C&D winner; definite chance for 10lb claimer who has made the frame in three of the five Irish races she has ridden in. |

Nine-time winner, including five on turf; last won over 6f (good) here in May 2025; went close in a 21-runner 5f handicap at Naas three starts ago; faded late into fifth behind Sovereign Cry when favourite back at Naas last time. |

Nine-time winner including five on turf; last won over 6f (good) here in May 2025 off 65 and is 5lb lower now; went close in big field over this C&D (good) on penultimate; below par over 6f at Fairyhouse 3 days ago but could rebound back here with rider claiming valuable 7lb. |

Record of 2-42 (1-28 on turf); didn't look like a winner in waiting during a winter AW campaign and below-par again on return to the turf at Navan (6f, heavy); 5f more suitable but needs a revival. |

Hard to win with, as illustrated by 2-41 record; won 5f Dundalk handicap off 73 in December 2024; now down to 52, having been regressive since second in a claimer last summer; needs to step up on recent Dundalk form. |

Three-time course winner over 5f/6f on varying ground; most recent run this term was a step in the right direction (considerately-handled never nearer sixth) and could reverse form with a couple of these with top rider replacing inexperienced 10lb claimer; down to a career-low mark. |
