2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
1-25 strike-rate; runner-up to Burgundy Man over C&D (soft) last October; underwhelming in two starts this year, beaten 47l at Downpatrick (3m, good) 19 days ago; blinkers are now added. |
7/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 150y |
10st 11lb |
Sole win came over C&D last year off 3lb lower; was hit and miss since but can improve from recent comeback at Cartmel when beaten 15l; a player. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Had a below-par Defence Witness behind when a C&D third off today's mark last June, and belatedly off the mark next time out back in Ireland; can go well after a break without necessarily being able to threaten a win. |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 110y |
11st 9lb |
Two of three hurdles victories have come over C&D, including last time when winning off a mark of 109 (good); a pair of decent runs in defeat in prior chasing starts; he's in fine spirits at the moment and loves this track so has a lot going for him but softer conditions would pose a question. |
4/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 11lb |
Chasing the last twice, going close over 2m7f here and then a rallying third at Tramore (2m6f); won back-to-back handicap hurdles earlier this year but his mark took a knock and those recent chasing exploits were off much lower ratings; can still run well with a solid course record. |
3/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 4lb |
Gained back-to-back wins over hurdles in April/May, here off 88 (21.5f, yielding) and off 100 at Downpatrick (2m6f, good); now rated 109 over timber; denied by a head off lower chase mark by Thehairyfella on latest; up 3lb for that but good chance off 19lb lower chase mark. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Irish raider; reverts to hurdling after running reasonably well in a recent Downpatrick chase (2m7f, good) but has a modest strike-rate (1-23) and is very inconsistent; refitted visor replaces cheekpieces. |
10/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 150y |
10st 10lb |
Sole hurdles win came at this track in October 2024 off 4lb higher; was well beaten back over fences here last time and has to do much better. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 3lb |
Veteran with poor strike rate, but has found a bit of form lately culminating in a win over nearly 3m at Downpatrick; a quick look at his lengthy race record reveals that he hardly ever runs left-handed, though, which has to be a for a reason. |

0-11 over hurdles and 0-7 over fences, though was chasing the winner when unseating late on over C&D in October; could go well. |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 150y |

Dual point winner but achieved little in seven runs over hurdles; goes chasing with a good bit to prove and headgear is tried. |

10th Jun 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y |

Two wins in points early in his career; nothing in his hurdles form to suggest he can make his presence felt; pulled up at Cork last month. |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 11y |

Maiden has been in the frame several times over hurdles but has been well below her best last two starts in this sphere; has to rebound. |

8th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 6f 97y |
11st 0lb |
Maiden signed off for 2024 with placed efforts at Tramore (21.5f) and Downpatrick (2m6f) on good-good to yielding; disappointing efforts both starts in 2025; needs to bounce back. |

15th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 0y |

Maiden placed in three of last five runs in this sphere in 2024 (including at this venue); didn't take to chasing when pulled up at Downpatrick on return from 276 day break; needs to rebound back over timber. |

Second reserve; sole success came between the flags; 0-13 over fences and no signs of a breakthrough success in recent runs; pulled up when last seen in July; well out of the handicap here and hard to fancy. |

Point-to-point winner extended Rules' record to 0-16 when slipping up in a Downpatrick chase latest; not easy to make a case for on return to hurdles. |
