3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 2f 85y |
10st 10lb |
Useful bumper form and stepped forward hugely from underwhelming hurdles debut effort to land 2m2f Downpatrick mares' maiden in August, quickening up well from the last to beat a hot favourite 5l (good); soon beaten however on easier ground in Leopardstown novice handicap last month and legitimate ground concerns upped in grade. |

6th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 193y |
10st 13lb |
Bumper winner as a 4yo for former yard; 0-10 hurdling but just denied in C&D maiden a year ago; form this year not as good, fading tamely in mares' handicap at Galway last week; declining mark but still looks to have a bit to find. |
9/1 |

29th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y |
10st 7lb |
Useful form for previous yards; still early days with Charles Byrnes and perhaps went off too fast in maiden company at Kilbeggan (2m2f, good; favourite); often leads and dominating a field of this size won't be easy. |
10/1 |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 160y |
11st 5lb |
Bumper winner for Peter Fahey and some solid efforts over flights last summer for Gavin Cromwell; cheekpieces tried here after an okay run at Downpatrick last time; should be a player in a tricky contest. |

Not much of note in her two bumper runs; makes stable debut but hard to fancy. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 80y |
11st 9lb |
Maiden hurdle winner; hasn't run over hurdles since October but has had a couple of recent runs on the Flat so won't be lacking for fitness; could go well back over timber. |

4th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 10lb |
Modest Flat maiden ran reasonably in her opening three maiden hurdles but was well behind at Downpatrick latest; worth a market check on handicap debut. |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 165y |

Modest Flat maiden has run respectably in her three hurdle starts including here last time; isn't the yard's first-string on jockey bookings but can't be ruled out. |
7/1 |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 83y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Looked like one for stayers' trips when taking a Downpatrick 2m6f maiden last summer (good), but unable to confirm that impression on her one run after; much the longest absent of these, and her mark is no gift. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 |
12th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 50y |
10st 13lb |
4yo filly rated 116 after three runs; won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle on penultimate (2m6f, good); good effort conceding weight to progressive sort in a novice back there on latest (21.5f, yld); shaped like further would suit so she should go well up in trip. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 110y |
11st 5lb |
Excelled after being stepped up in trip here over 2m6f on second start last time (good), winning by 9.5l in the end; the choice of Kennedy with further improvement likely. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 87y |
10st 12lb |
Won off 11lb lower at Punchestown in May (2m3f, good); ran okay in a couple of chases subsequently but pretty well held off revised mark back over hurdles the last twice; tongue tie needs to eke out more. |
22/1 |
|
10th 3 |
24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 11lb |
Made the breakthrough in some style at Punchestown in May (2m, good to yielding) off 86; respectable efforts over fences twice following that; disappointing reversion to hurdles at Roscommon (2m, good) last time when beaten 16l; capable of better. |
6/1 |
|
6th 2 |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 204y |
11st 11lb |
Much improved to make a successful stable debut in a 2m handicap at Punchestown in May (2m, good to yielding); back over hurdles off a 10lb higher mark since two respectable runs over fences; player. |
7/2 |
