6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Irish raider; 13-race maiden whose best effort came over hurdles when a close second at Tramore (2m5f, good) last August, but three attempts over fences have seen her pulled up twice and tailed off once; Sean Bowen booked and, while a return to better ground and handicap company may help, she still has plenty to prove. |

11st 12lb |
Largely consistent hurdler, latest win came at Limerick (16.5f, good) in handicap off 102, bolted up by 15l; couldn't land a blow off 12lb higher lto; plenty on plate on chase debut; cheekpieces tried. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |

Series of placed efforts (including twice here) rewarded by 2m1f Limerick win early last month under enterprising ride, kept wide and making all in beating Dairy Force an eased 15l (good); 12lb hike makes this a lot tougher and unlikely to be given such leeway this time. |

11st 4lb |
0-10 over hurdles for Philip Dempsey in Ireland but signed off with pretty good fifth of 16 at Fairyhouse (2m, yielding) in October; has hood refitted for stable debut; worth a glance in the betting. |

Maiden was third in consecutive handicaps over 2m1f at Wexford in July but has been below that level twice since, including at Gowran last week; needs more. |

4th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 10lb |
Chased home a clear winner in a Limerick maiden in November (yielding) and has run encouragingly in Wexford handicaps over the summer on good ground, filling the frame twice; recent Bellewstown effort was a step backwards, but in the mix if at his best, although softer conditions would raise a doubt. |

Three-time Flat winner is 0-20 over hurdles but some decent efforts this year, including C&D third to Splendid Choice on penultimate (good) off this mark; never featured after slow start at Limerick on latest when claimer-ridden; senior rider now takes over and one to consider. |

A 15-race maiden but her best form has come here; beaten 3.5l into third by well-handicapped rival over C&D in October off 7lb higher; below form three starts this term but she would have a big chance if reproducing October effort. |
6/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 110y |

Now 0-4 under rules, chase debut third in Tramore handicap last October probably her best effort; lots to find with a couple of these on last month's C&D debut effort. |

11st 10lb |
Sole win came over C&D in May off 89 (good); has generally run well since, most recently only caught late under a positive ride when third at Kilbeggan (second won next time); 2lb higher but every chance. |
9/2 |

9th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Held up to win a Wexford handicap hurdle by a neck off 89 in May (2m1f, good); similar tactics at that venue last twice, fifth of 14 and then a 15l fourth last time, where the winner got loose in the lead (just in front of Slea Head and Surviving Murmansk); can't discount. |
7/1 |

24th Jul 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 150y |

Off the mark over C&D in May off 89 and okay run back here early in the month off this mark but clearly needs to improve to play a major role. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 50y |

Sole win came at Tramore (20.5f, yielding) in April off 5lb lower, pulling well clear with second; ran fine at Clonmel off revised mark; unseated back at Tramore when under pressure and beaten 19l, but didn't enjoy a clean run; contender. |

8st 13lb |
He's won here over hurdles and he broke his Flat duck at Redcar (1m6f, good to firm) recently; he's just 3lb higher today and the longer trip may suit; could be in the mix. |

Dual hurdle winner since joining Iain Jardine in the autumn and a very respectable fourth of 13 on the Flat at York (2m, good to firm) a fortnight ago; contests this easier race from the same mark; must be considered. |

Some good form over hurdles, including a win at Hexham (2m, good) last month; shaped when fifth in this code at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in May as though he could do with a longer trip, and he gets it today; interesting. |
