13th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 120y |
11st 9lb |
Dual hurdles winner got off the mark over fences for the first time at the eighth attempt at the Galway festival (2m2f, good); 4lb penalty for that could prove pivotal and his overall form doesn't suggest that a follow-up is guaranteed; trainer won this race last year though. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 54y |
11st 7lb |
Two wins over hurdles for Gavin Cromwell; 0-7 over fences and has a tendency to jump left at times; ground conditions will suit but soundly beaten over hurdles on latest and others make more appeal. |

Won a Tramore claimer comfortably in April and was a decent third in a Downpatrick handicap since for this yard; raised 1lb and can go well again. |

10st 0lb |
Maiden made a promising seasonal reappearance at Wexford but hasn't built on that; beaten 13l when fourth at Downpatrick and then pulled up over C&D latest; has gone well here before but others more convincing. |
16/1 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 13lb |
Has a knack for finishing second (runner-up in four of last six starts); filled the second spot again on his return at Wexford in May (2m1f, good to yielding); just fourth at Downpatrick (2m2f, good) last time when outpaced before keeping on; should be thereabouts again. |
6/1 |

Has finished runner-up in four of last five starts, including on return from 225 days off at Wexford on latest; nudged up another 1lb, but has gone well over C&D before and a leading contender. |

Won back-to-back handicap hurdles at Downpatrick and Down Royal over 2m6f/3m last August; 0-9 on Flat and first go in this discipline since 2024; disappointed over hurdles at Wexford last time. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Fourth in this last year before winning handicaps at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) and Down Royal (3m, good to firm); pulled up on seasonal return at Clonmel in June (2m7f, good) but much more promising was her 8l third of 18 at Limerick last time (2m7f, good), despite making a bad mistake; interesting. |

Long-standing maiden over hurdles but numerous placings, including good second in 2m3f Punchestown lady riders' contest last month; has his chance again, encouraging jockey booking. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 12y |

Plenty of placed efforts but is a long-standing maiden over hurdles; fair Flat run last month; only 11-2 at Clonmel on Friday, but was soundly beaten. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y |
11st 4lb |
Maiden after 16 runs under all rules; back after an absence with two runs over the summer, the best of which was a fifth in a Wexford h'cap chase; needs his best back over hurdles. |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Returned from a lengthy break to make stable debut at Downpatrick 9 days ago when fifth of 11 (2m2f, good) after leading at two out; entitled to improve from that but majority of hurdles form is not great; needs to improve on chasing debut; trainer also runs Figurehead. |

Won off 1lb higher at Tramore last year; chased home Chesterbaylad at Cork earlier this month but not in same form twice since; beaten 25l on latest and others make more appeal. |

Won a handicap hurdle at Tramore a year ago; right back to form when runner-up in a handicap hurdle at Cork on Monday; suited by a sharp, left-handed track and will go close if coming here in the same form. |

0.5l second in a 2m Tramore maiden hurdle (yielding) for Philip Rothwell in October 2024; lightly raced since and beaten 19.5l when third of 7 on second start for this yard in a Down Royal maiden hurdle last October; might need this run after 218 days off. |

Plenty of experience, second in ordinary 2m Tramore maiden a year ago his best effort for Philip Rothwell; never sighted on yard debut in Downpatrick handicap in July, likely to find this tough back in better maiden company. |
