Course novice hurdle winner; hampered on two occasions when pulled up on Limerick return in May; lying second when falling two out here two weeks ago, worth considering in a weak race. |

Novice hurdle winner here (3m) who went up 8lb for 2m6f Fairyhouse lady riders chase win in November (yielding); jumping issues when fifth of 17 to Sequestered at Leopardstown in December; hampered on two occasions (by left-jumping Ceroc) when pulled up on Limerick return in May so that run probably forgiven. |

Won a 3m event at Perth in July; unseated four out at Wexford, moderate run at the same venue on next start; better at Kilbeggan last time, took third after a mistake at the last; staying type who has won over 3m2f. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 157y |
10st 11lb |
Two-time chase winner, winless since November 2023; had been running poorly but ran better when beaten 10l into fourth at Limerick 16 days ago in first-time cheekpieces having been hampered two out; they're left on now and he's on a nice mark if he can build on that. |

Two-time chase winner hasn't got his head in front since November 2023; hasn't looked like ending the dry spell in two starts for this stable; beaten 54l at Killarney latest; cheekpieces tried. |

Four wins, split evenly between chasing and hurdles; losing run stretches back to November 2023 and debut for this yard was forgettable, as were his final runs for previous one. |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 3m 1f 110y |
11st 4lb |
Maiden hurdle winner on soft (2m6f) two years ago; seen just three times since however, including subject of running and riding enquiry at Ballinrobe last year and most recently never nearer fifth of 14 in 2m6f Roscommon beginners last month; potential improver on handicap debut (now upped in trip) but high enough mark on evidence to-date. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 2m 5f 150y |
11st 12lb |
Winning hurdler rated 109 in that sphere; minor promise in both chase starts including when catching the attention of the stewards at Ballinrobe when last seen in May 2024 (2m1f, yielding, found to be lame post-race); tongue-tie is added to hood and steps back up in trip; check market. |

10st 13lb |
Won two staying handicap chases on good ground in the first half of last season; ordinary form in recent months; addition of blinkerss failed to do the trick at Kilbeggan eight days ago; joint-favourite then, faded after making a lot of the running. |

9th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 100y |

Won two chases last year, including over C&D, but has failed to fire in three starts this year; drops in grade now, rider claims a handy 5lb and blinkers go on; could revive. |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 3m 1f 110y |
11st 4lb |
Won two handicap chases at about 3m during the second half of last year (including beating Hascoeur Clermont off 107 at Cork) but needs to improve a fair bit on both runs this term, fading quite tamely at Roscommon last time. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Gained first chase win over C&D (good) just 17 days ago, bolting up by 11l; on the face of it, a 6lb rise for that looks a shade lenient but it probably wasn't the strongest of races and this is tougher; likes it here but needs to improve again to follow up. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 155y |

Dual hurdle winner including once here, is 0-14 over fences but has been placed lots of times including third in this race last year; pulled-up over hurdles last time but a player if rebounding. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |

Dual hurdles winner was poor at Wexford in April off 4lb higher (2m4f, good to yielding) but rebounded over fences back there last time when a distant second of 11 (3m2f, good to yielding); can't be ruled out but others are more appealing. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y |

10th Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 194y |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 155y |

Got off the mark over fences when taking this race last year but hasn't repeated that form since between hurdles and fences; however, is 1lb lower than a year ago so has to be respected. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |

Three-time chase winner, including at Killarney in May (3m2f, good to yielding) is 0-6 over hurdles so has a 24lb lower mark in this discipline; hasn't contested a hurdle race since 2024 and never for this yard so he looks like a huge danger to all off this mark but this trip looks tight for him. |
