9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Gained second win of career over C&D (good) on seasonal return last month, beating Zaraahmando by a neck; 8lb rise makes things tougher but Keane booked and he's well drawn so can't be totally discounted. |

Sole success came in a Roscommon claimer in August (10.5f, good); heavy ground may not have been ideal on debut for this yard on latest at Listowel but others make more appeal. |

Three seconds for William Haggas but had failed to make frame in six starts for Denis Hogan before dropping in grade to take a good ground Roscommon claimer over an extended 1m2f in his final start for that outfit last month; can't be ruled out but others preferred. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Left Ireland for 15,000euros and a 15-race maiden, though very nearly put that right on the AW (1m) in October; has turf form as well; could be interesting on stable debut should market vibes be at all posititive. |

Promising 2yo for Owen Burrows (RPR 83); 0-20 in Ireland for Denis Hogan, with 2026 offering no sign of a revival in his fortunes; starts out for a new yard off a lowly mark so worth a precautionary market check. |
20/1 |

Four-time winner over 1m with ease in the ground on all occasions, including at this meeting last year; handles good ground too; has never tackled a trip this far, but just failed over 1m1f at Gowran and every chance that she will get it; big player if she does. |

Went up an aggregate 21lb for three handicap wins last season; unlucky in a couple of outings of late, beaten a nose over C&D (yielding) in April and just failed at Gowran (9.5f, yielding) on penultimate; solid fourth at Leopardstown (1m1f, soft; Anvika third) eight days ago and rider takes off valuable 5lb. |

No win since scoring off 2lb higher at Naas (1m, yielding) over two years ago; promising seasonal comeback second at Navan in March (1m2f) but 1m4f looked beyond her at Limerick last month; back to probably her optimum trip. |
