Multiple winner on AW/turf but mostly disappointing since his C&D win in January, nine runs back; bit risky. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Dual course winner over 10.5f but stays much further; runner-up in 7f/10.5f claimers for Denis Hogan before good fourth in 7f handicap last week on stable debut; should relish the step up in distance. |

4th 13 (6) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Two-time 10.5f course winner has been a runner-up in two recent claimers, inc' over C&D last time; back in a handicap now for stable debut; his ideal trip is probably over further but in the mix. |

2nd 6 (9) |

Second runner for yard; dual winner here (10.5f) last year for former yards; runner-up in 10.5f claimer on latest, with the pair pulling well clear; big drop in trip a slight concern but should go well; blinkered. |

Turf winner is 0-4 on the AW; has failed to fire in handicaps (including over C&D) since second in a Sligo claimer in August; others make more appeal. |

1st Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 40y |
9st 5lb |
Won back-to-back races at Dundalk last autumn (both 10.5f); also won a 1m handicap here last season (good) off 14lb lower; off since November and stamina to prove for this trip, so probably best watched. |
18/1 |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 5lb |
Hit the crossbar when making her handicap debut on return before Gowran win in May and back to form over this C&D more recently; promoted to second after interference on her penultimate start before career best success latest and should remain competitive despite 6lb rise. |
4/1 |
|
6 (9) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 9lb |
Modest form in maidens last term but confirmed promise of a big run on return when winning over 1m at Gowran in May and bounced back from some lesser efforts when runner-up (promoted from third) over C&D last month; form knocked since but still lightly-raced and first-time cheekpieces may help. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
8st 12lb |
Turf record is poor (0-26) but more effective on AW (2-25); this year's form hasn't offered much but is 8lb below last winning mark so can't be totally discounted. |

Fair effort on just third handicap start when fifth over 10.5f on AW; tongue-tie tried then stays on; was keen the last day, so trip could be an issue, but is a half-sister to 1m4f winner. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Not too much to take from three maiden runs on turf last year before staying on into midfield in C&D handicap in August; ran no race at Navan in October; tongue-tied ahead of return; others hold more solid claims. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 10y |
