9st 6lb |
Has run some good races in handicaps this term, notably his fifth of 20 in the Scurry Handicap at the Curragh, but nonetheless hasn't lived up to market expectations on several occasions; discarding the headgear backfired when he was never travelling over 6f at the Curragh last time; now blinkered and steps up in trip. |

A little bit hard to figure him out but, to be charitable, probably still learning his trade; unlucky fourth to Chicago Pope early in the season; staying-on fifth of 20 in the Scurry here was a good effort; ridden 2f out and just stuck on one-paced when third at Naas latest; visored last twice, now goes unaided. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 205y |

Dual winner over this trip last year and promising fourth over C&D on his return; not so good next twice, but decent fifth of 20 in Scurry Handicap (extended 6f) at the Curragh where couldn't go the pace at halfway before keeping on late; had three of these behind and it was a creditable showing on first start against his elders. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y |
10st 0lb |
Gained a second career win when beating Zenford by a short head at the Curragh (7f, good) on penultimate; soundly beaten off 5lb higher mark back there on latest; may be on a tough mark for now. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Gained second career win on latest over C&D (good) and the runner up Zenford has won since; 5lb rise for that short-head success seems fair and his C&D form figures now read 311; should be in the mix again. |

Sole win came in a Galway nursery on soft ground in July; was poor in a similar race at the Curragh last time and has a lot to find in this company; looks yard's second-string. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
10st 3lb |
One of two for yard; has progressed since tackling handicaps, winning at Galway off 72 and runner up over this C&D off 81 last time out (4lb higher now); decent run in the Ballyhane sandwiched between those efforts; needs to improve further to win off this mark. |

Was busy at two, winning nurseries at Navan and Cork over this trip; below his best this term until returning to form to take second place behind a front-running winner Midnight Dusk at Fairyhouse; took him a while to get into the clear then; leading contender. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |

Was busy at two, winning nurseries at Navan and Cork over this trip; below his best this term but not bad runs on two latest; down 3lb but needs more; looks stable second-string. |

Did plenty of racing at two; winner of two 6f nurseries on easy ground and ran well to take fourth in the Birdcatcher at Naas; a bit high in the ratings since then; needs to step up on the form of a recent Cork run. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Fair effort when a 3l sixth behind City Escape in a classified event at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) last week, but that took his record to 0-15 and he needs to find more to make a big impact back in a handicap. |
9/1 |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Not disgraced over 1m2f in this grade on last two starts but is yet to be placed after 14 starts and needs to find something extra on this drop back in trip. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Ex-Irish gelding who ran with a bit of credit when fourth of ten in a similar contest at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) last time, but has yet to be placed in 12 starts; hood will need to make a difference. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
She's hard to fancy on what she showed on her five starts in Ireland for Adrian McGuinness; however, her new trainer does very well with recruits from other yards and she's one to watch in the betting on stable debut. |
14/1 |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 30y |

Beaten about 6l on nursery debut at Galway (7f) where she was slowly away on soft ground; did finish behind Invincible Will but could be given another chance under these conditions and now hooded. |
20/1 |

Not an obvious contender on her maiden form, in good hands and may improve. |
