Has shown promise in two starts since returning from a break; has an edge over Avandra on Wexford running, but that rival showed improved form when second at Tramore recently. |

Ran okay in a low-grade 1m5f handicap a month ago (blinkers returned) and there has been the odd bit of promise in handicap hurdles; 0-16 under both codes, but no forlorn hope here. |

Dual-purpose maiden yet to trouble the judge in either code; soundly beaten on last two Flat starts and over hurdles on latest; drops in grade and blinkers return, but hard to fancy. |

11st 4lb |
A maiden under both codes and now exposed over hurdles, being 0-14; however, he's finished runner-up on seven occasions and, although below his useful best in 2026, he has the strongest form claims in this weak a maiden. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 204y |

Flat maiden has run well in defeat lots of times over hurdles (13 starts) including at Limerick last time; ground-versatile and has the highest published rating in the field so should be bang there again. |

3rd 9 |

11st 12lb |
Second in seven of his 12 races over hurdles, including when beaten 16l by subsequent Grade 1 winner Zeus Power at Thurles last December; had a Flat run last month; overdue for a win and looks the part here despite his concerning profile. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 50y |

Maiden was beaten 5l by today's rival Global Skies at Clonmel last time, his best handicap run; raised 2lb for that and, if he has progressed since, can run respectably again. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Maiden gelding by Frankel; started his career with the Gosdens; has shown potential for a belated breakthrough in his two most recent races; recovered from interference at the start to finish fourth over this trip at Down Royal in May; leading contender based on his second to solid yardstick Jurality over 1m5f at Navan; same good 7lb claimer aboard now. |

Maiden produced one of his better efforts on latest when not far behind a couple of these rivals at Down Royal (2m, good); place shout if he backs that up, but overall profile suggests that's not guaranteed. |

4th 14 (12) |

Dual-purpose Flat winner; 1-6 over hurdles and rated 120; promise in first two chase attempts, earning a rating of 117; beaten 17l into second of 12 behind talented Supersundae here (22.5f, gd-yld) in April; 9l fourth of 10 at Killarney (2m5f, gd-yld) 22 days ago; leading claims. |

Flat and hurdle winner is rated 120 in the latter sphere after showing consistent form last season; ran well enough on chase bow at Kilbeggan, albeit beaten 17l; can improve from that and be involved. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 70y |

Useful form on the Flat and over hurdles (rated 120); suited by staying trips on the Flat; should be fit for chasing debut after AW run at the beginning of the month. |

French AW winner; fell on debut at Punchestown; non-runner twice on account of good ground since her 13l Cork third in July; ran okay on soft in France so the forecast rain looks a plus for her; chance in a race that lacks depth. |

The pick of her form is a fourth in a Gowran handicap from a 13lb higher mark in June last year; her runs since then have been poor and she was last seen finishing a 32l ninth of 11 at Clonmel in May; cheeckpieces go on but they need to spark huge improvement. |
