Modest in maidens and was beaten 22l on handicap debut at Wexford; major improvement needed; tongue-tie retained. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Hasn't shown much in maidens at 16.5f-22.5f including one here; potential improver on handicap debut in first-time tongue tie; check the market. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Comfortably won Worcester maiden (2m, good) on last summer's stable debut but has been some way below that form on all three starts since; will be fine over today's trip but needs to get career back on track. |
25/1 |

3rd 1 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who justified skinny odds with minimal fuss in Worcester maiden (2m, good) on stable debut in August; he's one of the two form picks on that and earlier evidence, but the heavy defeats in his two handicaps since tell a very different story. |
7/2 |

12st 2lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who justified skinny odds with minimal fuss in Worcester maiden (2m, good) on stable debut in August; beaten the thick end of 50l on handicap debut in valuable event over 2m4f back there the following month; off since and drops back in trip with drying ground probably in his favour. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 12lb |
Ten-race maiden over hurdles but some good efforts in defeat last year in maidens, most notably when second at Roscommon in August; returned from break at Bellewstown 27 days ago, pulled up before last; needs improvement on chase debut up in trip, but not out of it on pick of form. |
18/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 30y |
11st 4lb |
Seven-race maiden but some good runs in defeat; back-to-back runner-up finishes in maiden hurdles at Roscommon and Ballinrobe last August on better ground; way below that at Downpatrick when last seen in September. |
8/1 |
|
5th 6 |
19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 110y |
11st 0lb |
Six-race maiden but some decent runs in defeat, including back-to-back runner-up finishes on last two starts; best run was at Roscommon when a lot went wrong (interference, mistake, hung), and he was still a 1.25l second; this is the longest trip he has tackled under rules. |

10st 9lb |
Dual hurdle winner is rated 128 in that sphere; hasn't been as good over fences in four starts but best effort came when fourth in a Clonmel novice last time; raced a bit awkwardly then; will need plenty more today. |

|
4th 4 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Rated 130 over hurdles but yet to replicate that level over fences; beaten a cumulative distance of 97l in first three chases at Fairyhouse (2m5f, yielding), Galway (22.5f, yielding) and Leopardstown (2m1f, yielding); best form on good ground so needs the track to dry out. |

Has been showing a fair standard over hurdles, making the frame in three of his last four outings; lack of chasing experience raises a doubt. |

Third in a six-runner maiden hurdle over 3m1f at this venue last summer; two moderate runs over fences before last November down the field in a handicap hurdle at Limerick at Christmas and absent since. |

3rd 4 |
22nd Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y |

Shaped well at Wexford (2m5f) and Galway (2m6f), latterly behind the Ebor favourite Hipop De Loire; faces nothing of his calibre here and should have better days ahead of him. |
3/1 |

5th 7 |
30th Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 0y |

His debut earlier this month was a promising fifth of 14 (beaten 14l) in a maiden hurdle at Wexford (2m5f, good); form boosted by the winner and he should improve so has to be on the shortlist. |

Picked up a wound when disappointing in his latest maiden (strong favourite) and had been steadily progressive; doesn't look badly treated on his second at Wexford with the winner since going on to better things. |

5th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 59y |

Runner-up in maidens at Limerick (2m1f) and Bellewstown (2m4f, good), and latest conqueror has since followed up; may find 2m on the sharp side but has each-way claims in the new cheekpieces. |

Standout effort a 2l second of 10 in a maiden hurdle at Limerick (2m1f) in May; 2m5f may have been too far when disappointing on latest at Wexford; rated 115 and he's a big player dropped back in distance. |
