2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 7lb |
In good form since returning from a 956-day absence, reeling off a Ballinrobe maiden hurdle win before a comfortable debut beginners' chase success at Kilbeggan last time (2m4f, yielding) with Ho My Lord 7.5l behind him that day; he should handle this step up in trip; he is lightly raced and there is likely more to come. |

5th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 95y |
11st 12lb |
Runner-up in first two hurdle starts in 2022; returned from mammoth break at Limerick with a reasonable fourth; well fancied at Ballinrobe last time (2m7f, good) when duly obliging with a winning margin of 13l; goes chasing now and there could be more improvement in him. |

11th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 218y |
11st 6lb |
Runner up in first two starts over hurdles but those were in 2022; back from mammoth layoff with a respectable fourth at Limerick (2m1f, good) in May; this longer trip is more suitable; top rated at 111 and the one to beat if backing that last run up. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y |
10st 13lb |
Point winner was fourth in a Stratford maiden hurdle on debut (jumped poorly); was better when a 13l runner-up at Ballinrobe (jumped left); has ability but jumping is a concern and might be better going right-handed. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 5 |
11th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 218y |
11st 6lb |
Won a 2m4f point-to-point (good) in Britain in May; jumped poorly when a 6.25l fourth of 9 in a Stratford maiden hurdle early last month; this trip more suitable and he is open to improvement; not discounted. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Half-brother to very useful Flat racer Temple Church and to stable's useful jumper Hallowed Star; led close home to make winning debut in five-runner maiden point in Wales (2m4f, good) in May; rules debut today. |

Maiden has been placed a few times but has to bounce back from two poor runs; the new cheekpieces need to work. |

Maiden was only beaten 4l in third in a 2m Punchestown handicap in January; stumbled halfway when was poor at Newbury since; is a player if bouncing back. |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 2f 72y |
10st 10lb |
Improved over tame handicap debut at Clonmel (2m4f, heavy) when a 16l fifth of 18 at Punchestown (2m, yielding); tailed off back at that venue next time (2m3f, heavy); potentially prefers better ground than this. |

Struggled on handicap debut at Clonmel (2m3f, heavy); improved on that tame effort when fifth of 18 here (16.5f, yielding) on New Year's Eve; may need better ground than this. |

Heavy defeats in both starts over hurdles including here latest; new trip now but hard to make a case for. |

22nd Jul 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 89y |

Never in contention in a maiden hurdle at Roscommon; can be safely ruled out. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 125y |
11st 4lb |
Modest form in sole completed point-to-point; weakened quickly when pulled up at Ballingarry in May; half-brother to two hurdles winners but probably best watched on Rules' debut. |

Third over 2m at Navan in December (2m, soft to heavy) but poor in two subsequent runs on heavy at Naas and Gowran; improved effort at Bellewstown last time when a 9.5l sixth (2m1f, yielding); others make more appeal. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 120y |

Is 0-12 under Rules; best efforts have come over hurdles at this venue; not a bad effort on chase debut at Tipperary in July; soft ground may not have suited on latest at Ballinrobe; could do better back at this track. |
