10st 13lb |
Two wins on the Flat in 2025 but losing run over hurdles stretches back to a Grade 2 win at Cheltenham in December 2020; new yard now and has been off since October; may need this run. |

Veteran has had a good season on the Flat, recording 2m wins at Tramore and Clonmel; decent run back at 1m4f on latest and now reverts to hurdles for first time since January 2024 (Grade 2 Cheltenham novice winner in his day). |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 170y |
10st 13lb |
Dual-purpose maiden had been placed over hurdles for Gordon Elliott but has been poor in two starts for this yard (both here) and needs improvement on her best form anyway. |

17th Mar 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 105y |

0-16 on the Flat; best effort over timber came in a 2m maiden hurdle here last year but was still beaten 13.5l in that contest; not obviously well treated for handicap debut and best watched. |

Regressive Flat maiden wasn't beaten far on hurdling debut last year before falling; will be better suited to handicaps. |

Maiden's best efforts have been over much shorter trips; tame recent Killarney effort doesn't augur well. |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
8st 9lb |
Notched a three-timer last summer with wins at Bellewstown (1m7f, good), Ballinrobe (1m5f, good to yielding) and Galway (1m6f, yielding); made a moderate return at Ballinrobe last time and regular rider Patrick McGettigan is not aboard. |
40/1 |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 4f 183y |
9st 6lb |
Won three in a row last summer (1m5f/1m6f, good-yielding) and narrowly beaten over today's trip in big field at Galway; absent since October so may just need this (regular rider switches to Granville Street). |
14/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Won three in a row on the Flat in the summer under Patrick McGettigan (1m5f/1m6f, good-yielding) and reverted to this code with narrow second in a big field at Galway (1m4f, soft) a fortnight ago; clearly thriving and has a big shout with the step back up in trip a likely plus. |

Sole win came here last September (1m5f, good) but numerous placings include this term at Sligo; not much luck in running at Leopardstown on latest so remains of interest, especially given his record here. |
8/1 |
|
9th 10 (13) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 180y |
9st 10lb |
1-28 record is a concern; compiled a sequence of seconds; placed seven times in all, including at Sligo 12 days ago; senior rider aboard, with a very capable apprentice on the stable's other runner Eastern Wind; hard to be sure which one will prove best. |
10/1 |

3rd 6 (2) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |

Decent performer over this kind of trip; had four seconds (three for this rider) and a win last year and he's had a spin over hurdles to warm up; ground doesn't matter to him and should be thereabouts. |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Two wins last season, both of them under today's rider and the second of which arrived over C&D (yielding); creditable enough seasonal return off 9lb higher at Navan when a 5.5l eighth of 20, shaping as though he would improve for the run; in the mix. |
14/1 |

8th 3 (11) |
25th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 5f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Two wins last season, both gained at the main expense of members of this field; edged out God The Highness at Sligo; ended the campaign with a 1m6f Curragh victory over Quiz Test; 9lb higher now, same apprentice claiming 7lb. |
8/1 |

16th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Off the mark when making much of running over slightly shorter at Sligo in August and pick of two runs since when non-staying fourth to Grann's Boy over 2m1f at Thurles last week; drop back in trip here should suit. |

Flat winner is 0-26 over hurdles; off since heavy defeat in handicap chase at Thurles in October; has run well here on the Flat in the past but overall record fresh suggests he might need this after 194 days off. |

Two Flat wins from 56 starts, placed 16 times; 26-race maiden over hurdles, placed five times; fair run on the Flat last week; no chasing experience; overall record suggests he will find a few too good. |

5th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 200y |

Second reserve; best efforts have come on good ground, including C&D second last season off 47; soft ground against him of late and similar scenario here. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 77y |

Wasn't beaten far here on penultimate start over further; didn't build on that at Sligo subsequently and tough race to break the maiden tag. |
