11st 4lb |
Maiden hurdle winner at Tramore (2m6f) in May; posted a good Tramore novice run last month but not as good in a Killarney handicap since so has to rebound down in trip. |

Got a 9lb hike for winning a Tramore maiden hurdle in May; well held in three novice hurdles since; 4lb wrong on his handicap debut and probably safe to look elsewhere. |

Won a maiden hurdle over 2m6f here in May; a decent run in a Downpatrick novice since but was beaten 32l there last time; has a lot to do in this company on these terms. |

Had a lot of rivals behind when sixth in two-miler at Navan in November; fair front-running fifth over 2m6f on his return at Ballinrobe (no tongue-tie); only 9-2 when running poorly over same C&D, in a tongue-tie; first run over 3m. |

Maiden shaped like he'd improve plenty for the run when a respectable 11.5l fifth of 16 over C&D, under a positive ride, on his return from a break two weeks ago; interesting. |

10st 7lb |
Beat a good yardstick in his maiden and then ran well from the front in a 3m1f handicap at Kilbeggan, proving no match for Smallcraftwarning; has a pull in the weights with that rival and one to consider. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 200y |
11st 10lb |
Second over extended 2m4f last year; made all to beat 116-rated rival in 2m3f maiden here last month, and talented claimer negates good chunk of 8lb rise; trip an unknown, but some stamina on dam's side of pedigree. |

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. |

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. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 55y |

Progressive young handicapper has won over this trip at Killarney and over 2m6f at Ballinrobe; has a lovely racing weight; can hang left, so trainer thinks he'll be happier back at a left-handed track. |

Surprise 33-1 winner at Killarney (20.5f, good) in July on first run after a break and runner-up has advertised the form; travelled strongly when beaten 0.75l at Sligo on latest (3m2f, good); 3lb rise; deserves to be a leading fancy. |

3rd Oct 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 13lb |
By Galileo and out of his yard's Cheltenham Festival winner Vroum Vroum Mag; didn't hang about over hurdles despite showing useful form in his two races; likely that he needed his first run over fences (after 312 days off) and then won pretty much as he liked at Galway (2m6f, good), the form of which has been well franked by the runner-up; improving and has lots of potential. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |

Beaten at short odds on debut in a bumper at this venue two years ago; won over hurdles at Roscommon last summer after a break; runner-up in a Listed novice here later that month, beaten by the subsequent County Hurdle second Sticktotheplan; ran out of steam on his reappearance in a 3m1f chase at Punchestown last month; likely to be at peak form now. |

Turned over at short odds in Galway bumper on debut in August 2024; scored on hurdles debut on next start at Roscommon (20.5f, good) in July 2025; runner up in listed novice at Galway Festival later that month; off since; dam won over fences and market can guide on chase debut after a 312-day absence. |

Got off the mark on his only start for John McConnell in a handicap hurdle at Wexford in March; sold for £29,000 at Goffs UK since and makes his stable debut here; has shown preference for cut in the ground but is clearly of interest. |
