10st 8lb |
Won a Killarney maiden hurdle by 10l last August (2m1f, good); made all in a 1m1f Flat maiden last month in first-time cheekpieces at Ballinrobe in June; made her handicap hurdle debut at Galway last time (2m1f, good) when posting a disappointing performance; down 1lb but must bounce back. |

10st 12lb |
Just three runs over hurdles and won a Killarney maiden by 10l last August; made all in a 1m1f maiden last month when tried in first-time cheekpieces; could have a part to play. |

10st 1lb |
Dual-purpose; has won over hurdles and in the first three in five of six runs on turf on the Flat; not beaten far in Listed hurdle at Musselburgh when last seen in January; rated 72 and worth a market check on return in first-time cheekpieces. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y |
10st 8lb |
63-rated Flat maiden; showed improvement when switched to hurdling last summer, early in the juvenile campaign; placed on both Killarney starts, though beaten 10l on the second occasion; needs to find a bit extra. |
4/1 |

2nd 9 |
21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 0y |

Beaten 13l+ in four Flat races (1m-1m4f), earning a mark of 64 on turf; does at least have hurdling experience after finishing a close third here a month ago. |

18th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 0y |

Just a hint of ability in four Flat starts but was disappointing at Dundalk last time; however, comes from a respected yard so can't be dismissed now tackling hurdles. |

Has had a busy time since sent hurdling last August; three wins include two over 2m at this venue, including in a handicap with this rider aboard; form has been uneven; bounced back from a dismal Fairyhouse run when second at Navan, again for this rider. |

Won Galway 3yo maiden last summer and back to form in Sligo handicap (2m5f, good) last month, relishing longer trip to win going away under a patient ride; went down fighting at the same track 13 days later from 8lb higher; up another 1lb but respected. |

27th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
11st 3lb |
AW winner in Ireland back in January, his sole win in 26 appearances; fourth on yard debut here only on Monday and, while he has a bit to find with Wellwhatshappenin, he could give a good account. |
3/1 |

Ended 25-race Irish career with two respectable 9.5f runs at Gowran this summer (good/good to firm) but his only win was gained on Polytrack and conditions may not be in his favour on this stable debut. |

Middling runs for Ken Condon on the Flat; well behind in two maiden hurdles for current yard; unlikely. |

12th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 215y |

Two fair efforts in Flat maidens in April for Ken Condon and reappeared when soundly beaten on last month's hurdles debut at Killarney, having taken a keen hold; could come on from that. |

17th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 188y |
11st 12lb |
A 3yo tackling his elders when coming from off the pace to win over C&D last Christmas (heavy); fortnight later reportedly never travelled in first-time cheekpieces when well held at Navan; back from nine-month absence with a bit to prove. |
14/1 |

14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 46y |

Ran once at two; tailed off on hurdles debut at Killarney; much better when fourth at Gowran ten days ago, but will need to show further improvement. |

4th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 60y |

Sole Flat start at the Curragh last year was not devoid of promise but the same can't be said of his Killarney hurdles debut, where he finished tailed off (Whats New booked for second in that race before falling); Kennedy jumps ship now. |

13th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 46y |
11st 2lb |
Won off 8lb lower at Cork in April (2m, yielding) on handicap debut; a few indifferent runs before coming back to form with a solid fourth at Ballinrobe in August; clear of the others when second in a five-runner contest at Ballinrobe later that month. |
6/1 |

24th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 44y |

Won off 8lb lower at Cork in April (2m, yielding); back to form with solid 2.25l fourth of 14 here over 16.5f (good) on latest; has weakened late on both previous starts at this sort of trip so stamina a concern. |

Shock winner at Cork in April (2m, yielding); mid-field off revised mark at Limerick later that month, when testing ground may not have suited; unplaced favourite in a novice contest at Downpatrick; moderate run at this venue last month, jumped untidily at times. |

Flat winner; 0-15 over hurdles but generally consistent; solid second in Galway Festival handicap hurdle (16.5f, good) on penultimate; another decent run when third back in a maiden hurdle at Bellewstown latest (20.5f, gd-yld); rain no issue and thereabouts. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |

Won a 1m4f Flat handicap last year; plenty of solid efforts over hurdles but ran out twice too; fine efforts last twice, notably when second in a 2m Galway handicap; not bred for this trip but a big player if staying; penalised 8lb. |
3/1 |

2nd 19 |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 130y |

13-race maiden over hurdles; easily held by a couple of these in maiden hurdles; unseated when still with a chance at Ballinrobe last week; Darragh O'Keeffe booked ,but needs to find a bit more to land this. |
14/1 |
