15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
10st 13lb |
Modest form in seven starts but took small step in right direction at this track a year ago when beaten 17.5l into fifth off 9lb higher; tailed off over hurdles and fences since; returns after 305 days off and needs plenty more. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
10st 13lb |
Dual-winning chaser whose last win came at Listowel in September off 1lb lower (2m6f, good to yielding); looks up against it based on a failure to complete at Gowran over fences and Fairyhouse over hurdles before finishing tailed off here last time. |

28th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Turf winner for Richard Hannon as a 3yo and won his first two starts (Polytrack/hurdles) in the spring of 2022, but 0-26 under both codes since; makes his debut for another new yard and worth a market check; stable also runs Knight Of Magic. |

14th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
10st 0lb |
In the form of his life and seeking a hat-trick, following wins at Limerick and when beating Femme Magnifique decisively at Wexford last month (good); 2lb wrong here, but talented rider's claim offsets that; big player again, although may need to jump better now raised in class. |

1st 13 |
30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 4lb |
Improved on his three previous chase runs when winning a Limerick handicap last time over 2m1f; raised 7lb and in grade so will have to do more, but a capable 5lb claimer helps. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 157y |
11st 8lb |
Point/bumper winner; reverted to hurdling at Clonmel on latest after two moderate runs over fences but in rear throughout; others are more appealing at present. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Led close home to win tactical hunter chase at Fakenham (3m, good) last month; found things happening too quickly and jumped badly right throughout when remote last of three at Warwick (2m, good) 18 days ago but moves back up in trip here and the switch to a right-handed track ought to suit. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
1st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 1lb |
First wins for three years when striking last month in a Paxford restricted (2m4f) and Fakenham maiden hunter chase (3m, led last stride), both on good; prospects would improve if curbing the habit of jumping right evident on both of those occasions. |
11/4 |

1st 3 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Showed some fair form under rules when based in Ireland and comfortably won minor point at Paxford (2m4f, good) for new stable a week ago; not sure to be suited by this move back up in trip but still commands respect; sports refitted tongue-tie and first-time cheekpieces. |

11st 6lb |
Didn't run badly when fifth of eight at Kelso (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and continues to slip down the weights but has modest 2-21 strike-rate over hurdles; others appeal more. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Won a Down Royal handicap in March 2025 for Gordon Elliott (2m4f, good); best run for present yard when third at Newcastle in January (2m4f, good to soft) but hasn't fared as well since. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
On a losing sequence but in good form for her current yard until coming in a never-dangerous sixth in 2m4f Musselburgh handicap 22 days ago; she can bounce back off a slipping mark. |

Winless in seven starts for Gordon Elliott; sole win for Adrian Murray at Downpatrick (2m3f, good) off 87 around this time last year; fair debut for this yard at Sligo last month after a break; market will reveal expectations. |

Won off 11lb lower at Downpatrick in July (2m3f, good); three chase starts since, beaten a neck in a Sligo beginners' on latest (2m5f, gd-yld); respected back over hurdles. |
