From a good family but has yet to show winning potential in three runs over hurdles and rated 93; new hood needs to transform. |

Pulled up in a point-to-point and no show at huge odds in two maiden hurdles; unlikely to be the answer here. |

Held every chance when falling in sole point-to-point; shaped like further would suit in a 2m1f Clonmel bumper last month; could go well on hurdles debut upped in trip. |

Maiden has been placed a few times but has to bounce back from two poor runs; the new cheekpieces need to work. |

Maiden was only beaten 4l in third in a 2m Punchestown handicap in January; stumbled halfway when was poor at Newbury since; is a player if bouncing back. |

Beaten out of sight on Kilbeggan bumper debut; fell at the fourth at Roscommon in a maiden hurdle last time at 150-1 (2m4f, good); unlikely to be involved. |

Always out the back and tailed off in sole start in a Killarney bumper just under a year ago; best watched on hurdles debut in first-time hood. |

Modest form in sole completed point-to-point; weakened quickly when pulled up at Ballingarry in May; half-brother to two hurdles winners but probably best watched on Rules' debut. |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 11lb |
Maiden's best run came when placed in good-ground Wexford maiden last summer; testing ground wouldn't have suited on last month's comeback run and may need more drying to be considered. |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 2f 72y |

0-7, but best effort by far came at Wexford when last seen in July (2m1f, good), losing second in the dying strides; may need this and may want better ground. |

0-6 under Rules and hard to fancy on the back of three maiden hurdle runs at 2m3f-2m4f; drops in trip but others preferred. |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 11y |
11st 4lb |
Opening two maiden hurdle runs were encouraging, notably clear C&D second in August (good); clipped heels when bit underwhelming in Kilbeggan bumper following month but demands respect back hurdling in an ordinary maiden. |
5/2 |

5th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |

Promising debut when beaten 15l in a Roscommon maiden hurdle; built on that when beaten only 1.25l in a Sligo maiden hurdle, both over approx' 2m5f; this trip should be fine on bumper debut and should be involved. |

Huge odds but has run respectably in both maiden runs, saddle slipping at Roscommon last time; can't be ruled out but may be of more interest in handicaps. |

8yo is 2-9 in point-to-points, the wins coming in May 2023; went close at Inchydoney on latest start in that sphere 43 days ago; in good hands and respected on belated Rules' debut. |

Galileo gelding out of the very talented Vroum Vroum Mag was beaten at short odds in a bumper at last year's festival and absent until ready winner of 2m5f Roscommon opportunity maiden hurdle early this month, tending to jump left; back in trip here and part of a really strong Willie Mullins' team here. |

Galileo gelding out of the very talented Vroum Vroum Mag was beaten at short odds in a 2m2f Galway bumper last August but it wasn't a run devoid of promise; off since and surely capable of better for top yard; tongue tie worn on debut is retained. |

Galileo 5yo is first foal out of the yard's top mare Vroum Vroum Mag, smart 1m4f AQPS Flat winner and high-class 2m-3m hurdle/chase winner; tongue-tied for debut. |

Maiden was just denied in a Gowran handicap last time when finishing 14l in front of Harty Cup, though that one has improved since; should run well off 4lb higher for a new yard. |
