Four-time Flat winner has also won over hurdles; won over 1m7f at Leopardstown in July but has been below that level since off this mark and has to rebound. |

Likes a stamina test, last three wins at around this trip including at Leopardstown last month off 71; hampered start when never counting at same venue 9 days ago but that run can be forgiven and remains a player. |

Won two staying handicaps last year and added another one over C&D (gd-yld) two weeks ago; a 6lb rise makes things harder but another good run likely on the cards. |

Deserved his C&D win in an amateur handicap last October after several solid displays; doubts raised by subsequent form but still merits respect in a race of this standard. |

Deserved win in Clonmel amateur handicap in October (yielding) off 93; solid Thurles effort off revised mark; mistake costly at Clonmel next time; remains of interest if avoiding serious error. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 145y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
3-36 on the Flat and 2-30 over hurdles after signing off for Paul Flynn with a Punchestown win last October (2m, good to yielding); has been running okay on the AW for this yard; not discounted. |

12th May 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won over 2m at Tramore last August for Paul Flynn; yet to reach that form for his new stable, just fourth of five in 1m6f handicap at Southwell 19 days ago; more is required despite an easing mark. |
14/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Five-time winner in Ireland (hurdles/Flat) but he was well held in two starts for this yard at the end of last year; however, he seemed to be going quite well at the top of the straight before weakening into seventh at Kempton (2m, AW) 17 days ago and may take a step forward from that return to action. |

Blinkered when placed three times in middle-distance Flat handicaps on a sound surface for Johnny Murtagh; recent Punchestown sixth was best hurdles run so far and mildly encouraging. |

Blinkered when placed three times in middle-distance Flat handicaps on a sound surface for Johnny Murtagh; needs to show major improvement from handicap hurdle debut at Cork; one of two for the stable. |

Sole win came at Cork in 2023; decent form last autumn, including a close third over 1m4f at Galway and second in a 19-runner contest at the Curragh, with Whats New, Earthsong and Bruant behind; may improve from a Cork run, but has to reverse form with Celtic Drud and Earthsong. |

Sole win came at Cork in 2023; decent form in defeat last autumn, including a close third over 1m4f at Galway and second to Trubshaw in a 19-runner contest at the Curragh, with Plunkett Street, Earthsong and Bruant behind; each-way chance if reappearing in similar shape. |

Sole win came at Cork two years ago but went close last summer over 1m7f at Leopardstown and more recently close third over 1m4f at Galway last month; didn't quite get home in heavy ground at Listowel but solid run nonetheless; blinkers now replace cheekpieces. |

Sole win came over 1m5f (good) at Navan last May; 2lb lower now but was out of form when last seen at the Curragh in October; best watched on seasonal return. |

Sole win came over 1m5f at Navan in May (good) although only narrowly beaten at Listowel off this mark on similar ground; recent Ayr run (soft) leaves her with a bit to find but better ground to suit. |

Handicap debutante managed to win twice on the Flat for Charlie Fellowes but very few positives to take from three qualifying runs in maiden hurdles; well beaten on the Flat latest; others preferred. |

Two wins on the Flat in 2025 but losing run over hurdles stretches back to a Grade 2 win at Cheltenham in December 2020; new yard now and has been off since October; may need this run. |

Veteran has had a good season on the Flat, recording 2m wins at Tramore and Clonmel; decent run back at 1m4f on latest and now reverts to hurdles for first time since January 2024 (Grade 2 Cheltenham novice winner in his day). |
