10st 7lb |
Won three consecutive handicaps last summer up to 2m4f for Donncha Duggan; some fine runs in defeat after including since switched to this yard; has to prove he stays this trip. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Consistent results in Ireland this term featured three summer wins; not disgraced with midfield finish at the Cheltenham Festival (2m4f, soft) on debut for new stable but needs to improve on that bare form. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Consistent form in Ireland this season for Donncha Duggan features three summer wins; absent since finishing second in Listed novice event at Limerick (2m5f, yielding) five months ago; appears to have a stiffer task on debut for new connections but market support should be noted. |

Two hurdle wins last year, a maiden here (good) and a three-runner novice event at Tramore; not disgraced in a Cork Listed novice hurdle in November; fell at five out on chasing debut at Tramore last month; not dismissed. |

20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Two hurdle wins last year, a maiden at Kilbeggan (good) and a three-runner novice event at this venue (good); 110-rated gelding out of the great Solerina; interesting on chase debut given his status as a course winner. |
9/2 |

2nd Nov 2025 Yielding 3m 0f 100y |

Two wins this year, a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (18.5f, good) and a three runner novice hurdle at Tramore (20.5f, good); beaten 5.5l off 110 in a Clonmel handicap 10 days ago; much more needed to be competitive upped in trip in this grade. |

11st 4lb |
Dual-purpose; 4-33 over hurdles; last won at Killarney off 4lb lower last July (20.5f, yld-sft); good ground is fine but lacks a run and overall record when fresh suggests he'll come on for this run. |

Narrowly got the better of a frustrating maiden at Perth (3m, good; from 5lb lower) last August; kept on into never-nearer fourth over fences at Sligo (3m2f) in October but absent since; best watched unless market speaks favourably. |

10st 12lb |
Just one win in 24, and Ffos Las near-miss on second outing for current handler likely owed something to the drop to 0-105 company (3m, heavy); limitations exposed again since and this is tougher still. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |

Had plenty of racing in Ireland where she was effective on good ground; conditions were heavy when going close at Ffos Las a month ago (3m) and she travelled strongly deep into that race; possibilities off 4lb higher. |

1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |

Had plenty of racing in Ireland, winning just the once; made a quiet start for this yard at Chepstow but in a Class 3 handicap over 2m3f and this is easier; should handle the ground and has form over this far. |

Bagged his second hurdles win at Kilbeggan last year off 93 (2m3f, yielding); made satisfactory return to action back at Kilbeggan in June when a distant third (2m4f, good) but never involved there the following month (2m3f, good to yielding); capable on his best day. |

Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott in April 2024; no joy since but latest Galway fifth (2m, gd-yld) in October his best since joining this yard; dropped 3lb and sports a tongue-tie for return; could run into a place if fit. |
