1st Nov 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
11yo who appeared to be outstayed when fourth, beaten about 8l, in the Grade 1 Champion Stayers Hurdle at Punchestown (extended 2m7f, yielding) in May; however, that was still a good performance in today's context and he's fit from the Flat; possible player for top Irish stable. |

8st 5lb |
Aged 11 but he's a seriously unexposed, dark horse on Flat; smart hurdles form in Grade 1s in August 2024-May 2025; three Irish maiden races are all he's contested on Flat, when runner-up twice last year (2m/1m6f) and winning by a short head this August (2m) but he's not been hit hard with this opening Flat mark and having Willie Mullins as his trainer demands respect. |

11st 4lb |
Much better chaser than hurdler, three wins include handicaps at Punchestown and Cork in 2024; long losing run since, but has shown himself in good heart on the Flat of late. |

3rd 3 (4) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Bumper winner in 2020; best known as a three-time chase scorer, runner-up five times on the Flat (three times at Killarney, twice at this venue); probably ran close to his handicap mark when third in a 1m7f maiden at Leopardstown last month. |

Won a mares' bumper at Roscommon last July (good); fair effort on Flat handicap debut at Down Royal (1m5f, yielding); 1m2f too sharp on seasonal return; Roscommon sixth was satisfactory; had a valid excuse (almost slipped up) when fancied at Gowran on latest. |

Long-standing maiden over hurdles but numerous placings, including good second in 2m3f Punchestown lady riders' contest last month; has his chance again, encouraging jockey booking. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 9lb |
Capable handicap hurdler back in the day (won here in 2022 over 2m4f); series of absences in recent years, most recently good run in the circumstances when hampered by loose horse in finishing fourth in 2m4f Ballinrobe handicap chase in May; first run over hurdles in three years (11lb lower here). |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 136y |
11st 7lb |
Capable handicap hurdler back in the day and has won over hurdles and fences here; couldn't cut it in novice company after chase debut win here in 2024 (after longer layoff); nice run on the Flat when last seen in August and, given his track record, this race may have been the plan for a while. |

Maiden point winner in March (3m, soft), but a 20-race maiden under rules; last of two finishers at Pusk on latest point start; stiffer task here. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Out of form over hurdles/on the Flat in Ireland last year; caused 16-1 surprise in point at Hutton Rudby (3m, soft) last month, her third start for this stable, but was safely held on next outing; not easy to predict on chase debut. |

Maiden hurdle winner; tailed off in his only previous handicap but bounced back from that with a respectable show in novice company; absent since October but wouldn't be too dismissive. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 4lb |
Soundly beaten at big odds in handicap hurdles at this venue (11th of 12 finishers) and Sligo (last of 16) before showing dramatic improvement to win at Wexford last Friday; trainer suggested that the removal of a hood might have been a major factor; hard to find any positives in last season's form in Flat maidens; good Flat pedigree, unwise to discount. |

Maiden is 0-6 over hurdles; finished second in a 2m5f Tramore maiden (gd-yld) in August 2024; beaten 11.5l in a Bellewstown claimer on latest; more needed back in handicap company with cheekpieces worn last time left off. |
