11st 9lb |
Dual hurdle winner got off the mark over fences in a Kilbeggan handicap in May; solid efforts over hurdles and fences since; saddle slipped early so Galway run last time is forgiven; has 11lb to find on ratings with Le Coq Hardi. |

Off the mark over fences in emphatic fashion at Kilbeggan (20.5f, yielding) in May off 7lb lower; not beaten far in both starts since, including when just 2.75l behind the winner at Killarney latest (2m7f, good); yard had a winner here on Tuesday; should go well again. |

Versatile sort won over hurdles at Listowel in June but has failed to fire in that sphere twice since; returns to the Flat in a first-time visor; others arrive in better form. |

11st 13lb |
Winner of a Sligo maiden hurdle in May last year (2m4f, good); beat precious few rivals in four beginners' chases to date; pulled up at Tramore when badly hampered at the first last time; others preferred. |

1-11 over hurdles and rated 100; tailed off in all three previous starts over fences and similar story last two starts in novice hurdles; lacks a recent run and others appeal more. |

18th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 48y |
10st 3lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner has run excellent races in defeat on his first two starts on the Flat; was only 1.5l behind Eagle Fang at Killarney and he has since run a huge race off 90 in the valuable Q.R. handicap at Galway; has to concede weight to most of these but big chance. |

2nd 11 (3) |
29th Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 43y |
11st 12lb |
Dual bumper winner and maiden hurdle winner; fine comeback run and Flat debut when second at Killarney (1m6f, good) earlier this month and top amateur rider remains loyal. |
9/1 |

2nd 12 (3) |
14th Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 55y |
11st 12lb |
Dual bumper winner and maiden hurdle winner; lightly raced individual and unlikely they have got to the bottom of him yet; back from a five month break, but dangerous if the market gives the right signals. |

11st 7lb |
Winning hurdler is 0-2 over fences but shaped like his turn was near here on penultimate when chasing home Rockonliam (19.5f, good); hampered and unseated at the first on latest at Galway; chance, but might prefer more of a stamina test. |
6/1 |

28th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 54y |
11st 11lb |
1-12 over hurdles; posted a solid effort on chase debut in a beginners' at Wexford (19.5f, good) last month, keeping on from the back for a 4.5l second of 14; not obviously well treated for handicap chase bow but not written off. |

Made a successful handicap debut at Ballinrobe in May (2m, good) and couldn't have given his true running back there two months ago; could yet prove himself worthy of this mark. |

22nd Jul 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 89y |

Promise in all three maiden hurdles starts before C&D success eight weeks ago on handicap debut; ability to handle this track is an asset; capable of a good showing. |

27th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 57y |
11st 12lb |
Handicap debutant has shown promise in all three of his maiden hurdles at 2m-2m3f; ran respectably here in a 16.5f bumper a year ago; opening mark looks fair and he is worth a market check on return from 263 days off. |
