2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y |
11st 1lb |
Admirably consistent handicapper who brought his tally to five with two wins at Leopardstown last winter; ran in the County Hurdle before an ambitious Grade 2 attempt at Fairyhouse; has won on good ground, would probably prefer an ease. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |
11st 3lb |
Admirably consistent handicapper who didn't run too badly when midfield in the County Hurdle last month; however, this is a step up the ladder for him and regular rider Jack Kennedy evidently prefers the chances of The Yellow Clay. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 11lb |
Big improver in recent months, winning strong 2m Leopardstown handicaps at the Christmas meeting (yielding) and at the Dublin Racing Festival (heavy); will need to improve again to complete a hat-trick of big-field successes but that can't be ruled out in his current mood. |

Maiden/novice wins during the summer of 2024; mostly disappointing in the meantime, 35l behind at Leopardstown last time (2m, yielding); others preferred. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Dual novice winner (including here over 2m) last year; best effort in 2025 a neck second at Wexford (2m1f, gd-yld) on penultimate; didn't back that up off 7lb higher at Newton Abbott latest (pulled up); talented on his day but difficult to predict. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 2 |

Launched hurdling career with two 2m wins in novice company last year and was close second on handicap debut at Wexford (2m1f, good to yielding) this month; could have untapped potential over this longer trip; commands respect. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
10st 13lb |
No win since scoring at Sligo (20.5f, good) in August 2023; rated 12lb higher over fences but failed to exploit lower hurdles mark on last four starts in 2025 and has now joined a new yard; lacks a run and best watched unless market speaks. |

Three-time hurdles winner was back to form when runner-up at Listowel in June but tailed off at Bellewstown following that; got loose at the start and was withdrawn at Galway last week; mark still looks on the high side. |

12st 1lb |
Fourth in a claiming hurdle before having a complete off-day over fences five weeks ago, when he lost lengths at the start and jumped poorly before ultimately unseating; hard to win with at the best of times and now makes debut for a new Irish yard. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 50y |
11st 7lb |
Not the easiest to win with but often runs well in defeat; beaten 7.75l off 3lb higher on his last start in this sphere at Wexford on penultimate; 9l fourth in claiming hurdle back there on latest; best chase effort came when a 6l third in a Grade 3 novice here (18.5f, gd-yld) in October (Birdie Or Bust second); big chance on that form and has won here over hurdles. |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |

Decent form over fences last autumn, including third in a Punchestown Grade 3 novice; pulled up in a race of this type over hurdles at Tramore last month; better when fourth off his higher chase mark at this venue on latest; hard to win with. |

Gained third win over timber by a nose when last seen at Galway in October (2m, gd-yld); raised 6lb for that; will need to be ready to rock after 231-day break off career high mark (has won when fresh before). |

Flat winner; took his second hurdle race when scoring at Tipperary in July; not a bad Wexford run after, poor at Killarney on next start; addition of tongue-tie seemed to have a positive effect when second at Fairyhouse just over two weeks ago; 5lb claimer rode last Sunday's Munster National winner. |

Three-time hurdles winner (rated 113); unseated early on stable and chase debut at Downpatrick; ran a fine race from the front at 80-1 when second to the useful Royal Hollow at Clonmel last month; should be able to pick up a race over fences on that evidence but this looks like a more competitive race. |
