26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |
12st 0lb |
Won a bumper and two hurdle races, including a C&D maiden last year; the best of four chase runs this year came at Wexford last time; has a fair bit to do off topweight back to hurdles today. |
11/1 |

2nd 2 |
8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 20y |

Bumper and hurdles winner is 0-3 over fences and hasn't troubled the judge; soundly beaten over C&D the last twice; new cheekpieces need to eke out more. |

Dual bumper winner is 2-8 over hurdles, both wins coming over about 2m; solid runs in defeat in 2m4f handicaps the last twice and should be competitive off same mark. |
12/1 |

Dual bumper winner is 2-7 over hurdles; won a Tramore maiden on New Year's Day (2m1f, soft) and Ayr novice (2m, soft) the following month; failed to fire in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham; chased home an easy winner at Roscommon last month; better ground should suit, judged on bumper form. |

12st 0lb |
Started favourite for the Defender Bumper in 2024 but disappointed; runner-up on two of three starts since returning this year; gave trouble at the start at Tipperary last time and beaten 11l into second; holds the best form but is vulnerable too. |

Cost 28,000euros as a 3yo; started favourite for Goffs Defender Bumper in 2024 but only midfield; absent for 431 days until much better form when a clear second at Bellewstown early this month (good); tongue-tie now fitted and likely leading player. |

Placed twice in bumpers; mildly encouraging hurdles debut in 2m3f maiden here in June (good) but poor effort at Bellewstown last month; eligible for a mark after today. |

Third on debut in a Bellewstown bumper last year before disappointing at Listowel; not a bad run at the former track last week on return but is best watched on hurdling debut. |
14/1 |

5th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 40y |

A promising third over C&D on debut last August but was well below that level on soft ground at Listowel next time; has to resume progress after a break on debut for new yard. |

25th Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y |

Put up a promising debut effort at Bellewstown last month over 2m; pedigree suggests that this trip should suit better, so considered. |

23rd Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 209y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Progressive in three outings in Ireland, winning under a penalty at Ballinrobe (soft) and subsequently changing hands for £100,000; however, he ran no sort of race in a Listed event at Newbury (heavy; 12-1) on his debut for current yard and this contest is even more competitive. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Won on good ground at Wexford before defying a penalty on soft at Ballinrobe where he quickened up smartly for a 5.5l verdict; previous and subsequent exploits of the runner-up gives that form substance; since recruited for £100,000; hard to dismiss. |

Sligo bumper winner in August (18.5f, good); promising hurdling debut in a 2m4f Fairyhouse maiden last month; should have learned plenty from that initial experience and capable of making her presence felt here. |

Point-to-point winner; a staying-on third at Navan last September (2m3f, yielding) was her best run for Matt Daly; failed to build on that on her last two starts before a break; down the field at Clonmel last month; an intriguing amateur-ridden Closutton runner now. |

20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 0y |
