11th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 205y |
9st 12lb |
Won a 6f rated race at Navan on his fourth start, with Fresh Fade, First Approach and Parkside Lad among his victims; found things too demanding last time in a Listed race in which Morehampton and Fresh Fade fared better. |

Rated 92 after four starts; gained first win in a rated race at Navan (6f, good) on latest (Fresh Fade 0.75l behind); seemed to handle soft ground when fourth at Galway on penultimate; not without a chance. |

Fourth in maidens in the Curragh and Galway; can be rated a possible future winner but may be flattered by an opening mark of 89; gelded since his last run. |

9st 5lb |
One of four for trainer; some good runs in defeat in four maidens, including when beaten a head by Madbadanddangerous over C&D last month (yielding to soft); couldn't justify 5-6 favouritism at Thurles three days ago (1m, good to yielding) and McMonagle jumps off now. |

4th 1 (1) |
9th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 44y |
9st 9lb |
Encouraging debut at Leopardstown before hitting the frame in 7f Galway maiden; headed late on when narrowly denied at Naas (7f, yielding to soft) in first-time tongue-tie (retained) three weeks ago; the third bolted up at Killarney on Monday; sets a good standard up in trip. |

2nd 2 (7) |
18th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Encouraging debut at Leopardstown when beaten roughly 6l before hitting the frame in a Galway maiden over this trip (beaten roughly 2l); form has a solid look to it and he's a big player if he takes to the first-time tongue-tie given that we know he'll handle conditions. |

9st 7lb |
0-7; best run came when a 5l second of 8 in a Killarney maiden last October (1m, sft-hvy); shaped promisingly enough when denied a clear run back there in May (1m3f, good), but needs to rebound from dire effort at Newbury last time. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
0-6 and he needs to produce more than he's managed in Ireland this spring in his first two handicaps (1m4f/1m3f, good to yielding/good); however, his trainer has an excellent 13-41 (32%) record with his British raiders in the last five years; firmly in calculations in first-time headgear. |

Elzaam colt cost 1,000euros as a yearling; half-brother to 7f winner Hear Me Roar (RPR 73); dam 7f 2yo winner (88), sister to 7f winner Dutch Monarch; not an obvious type to make an immediate impact. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Ten races in all and on a roll recently with wins when upped in trip at Carlisle (1m3f) and Newcastle (C&D); he's been coming from off the pace and, despite scoring by just a neck last time, leaves the impression he has more to offer; a leading contender raised just 3lb since latest start. |

1st 8 (4) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Opened his account in Carlisle handicap (1m3f, good; Hey Havana third) last time on second run since being gelded and returning from a layoff; up 3lb but he ran creditably in both of his starts here and this extra furlong could help him progress again; player. |

Elzaam gelding cost 4,000euros as a yearling; first foal; dam 6f AW 2yo winner (RPR 77), half-sister to winners Tivoli (6f 2yo/7f) and Miss Helen (7f); easy to back but very promising debut run in Leopardstown auction maiden over this trip last month, staying on well in chasing home a shock all-the-way winner; won't need to improve too much to go one better here. |

Elzaam gelding cost 4,000euros as a yearling; first foal; dam 6f AW 2yo winner (RPR 77), half-sister to winners Tivoli (6f 2yo/7f) and Miss Helen (7f), out of 7f 2yo winning half-sister to 5f 2yo Group 2 winner Elletelle; yard has had a couple of 2yo winners already, Keane booking infers he is the yard's first-choice here. |

13th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Led close home to score at Kempton (7f) on Wednesday and is now 3-5 for new stable since August; 6lb penalty asks a bit more of him on his Tapeta debut but he still needs to be taken very seriously in current mood. |

Progressive on Lingfield AW, just failing to get up over 6f on yard debut and then putting that right over 7f on two starts since, travelling strongly before winning with a little in hand last time when 3lb lower; 0-6 on turf in Ireland but had excuses; can progress for in-form yard. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Promise in maidens last year and in first two runs this term at Leopardstown on soft; first-time blinkers did no harm at Galway on latest when fair fourth over extended 1m; return to 1m2f may suit but form seems to have plateaued and vulnerable. |
12/1 |

1st Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 73y |
9st 3lb |
Rated 74; promise in maidens last year (including here over 7f on soft) and in first two runs this term at Leopardstown; no impact behind Gliondar in 1m Curragh maiden on good latest; could do better back on softer ground in first-time blinkers. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Fairly useful, consistent level of form in five starts, notably when second in 7f maidens at Galway and most recently at Down Royal; in between not quite so effective when second to a ready winner here over 6f; needs to settle better than of late but should again be in the mix. |
9/2 |

5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 27y |
8st 10lb |
Shown ability in all four starts in maidens and proved she handled soft ground when hitting the crossbar at Galway over this trip; 6f on AW possibly too sharp latest but ran with credit to finish second of nine (beaten roughly 3l) and major player back up in trip here. |
