11st 9lb |
Regressive over hurdles this year; 11l fifth of 14 at Tramore last time (2m1f, good to yielding) was one of his better efforts; others more likely. |

Has been badly regressive over hurdles this year and was withdrawn on the Flat recently after being unruly before the start; not easy to fancy. |

Regressive over hurdles lately and this Flat maiden hasn't run in this sphere for over three years; the cheekpieces are new. |

8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |

Placed a few times over hurdles including at this course; poor on the Flat and over hurdles when last seen; needs best on chasing debut/return. |

9th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 66y |

No wins from 13 in bumpers/hurdles but beaten only a head at Downpatrick in August; makes Flat debut; others appeal more on this occasion. |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
11st 2lb |
No wins from 12 but went mighty close over C&D (good) last time when denied by a head; his form is in and out, but a repeat of his last run will see him go close off 2lb higher; ground is a slight unknown. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |
11st 7lb |
Won a 2m2f handicap hurdle here off 86 last year; made a bad mistake when tailed off on chasing bow in a Wexford beginners' in July (2m4f, good); again tailed off at Killarney last time (2m1f, good to yielding); may do better now in handicaps but needs to. |

Downpatrick handicap hurdle winner last summer is rated 95 in that discipline; absent since October and this looks a stiff task on chasing debut. |

25th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 28y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
He's won here over hurdles and he broke his Flat duck at Redcar (1m6f, good to firm) recently; he's just 3lb higher today and the longer trip may suit; could be in the mix. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner since joining Iain Jardine in the autumn and a very respectable fourth of 13 on the Flat at York (2m, good to firm) a fortnight ago; contests this easier race from the same mark; must be considered. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
Some good form over hurdles, including a win at Hexham (2m, good) last month; shaped when fifth in this code at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in May as though he could do with a longer trip, and he gets it today; interesting. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |
11st 7lb |
Winner of handicap hurdles last term at Roscommon and Downpatrick before recording wins over fences at Fairyhouse and Haydock; hit-or-miss of late but runner-up of 14 over hurdles at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) three weeks ago; can go well. |
10/1 |

2nd 6 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Winner of handicap hurdles last term at Roscommon and over C&D before recording wins over fences at Fairyhouse and Haydock; pulled up over fences at Kilbeggan and tailed off over hurdles at Wexford in most recent starts, however, runner-up finish at Down Royal over this trip in April gives him claims. |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 0y |
11st 5lb |
Winner of handicap hurdles last term at Roscommon and Downpatrick before recording wins over fences at Fairyhouse and Haydock; pulled up over fences on latest but previous Down Royal hurdle second gives him claims; tongue-tie added to usual cheekpieces. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Irish raider who won a 0-50 classified event over the weekend; this looks a bit more competitive under a 4lb penalty but the longer trip will suit, with him taking a while to get on top over 1m2f at Ayr; goes on the shortlist. |
5/1 |

1st 6 (13) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Irish raider; ran far better than finishing position suggests (pecked badly at second-last) over hurdles at Kilbeggan (2m3f) a fortnight ago; cosy Flat winner at Limerick (1m4f, yielding) in April and needs respecting at this basement level. |
9/2 |

5th 10 |
24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 10lb |
Three-time Flat winner is yet to score from six runs over hurdles; third at Punchestown (2m, good to yielding) in May was his best placing; okay efforts over fences and on the Flat since then; chance. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 1lb |
Won a Wexford handicap hurdle last summer off 78 (2m1f, good); bagged a handicap chase win at Tramore in May (2m6f, good); bounced back from a poor run at Wexford when third of 13 at Tramore last time (2m6f, good); reverts to hurdles now off a 12lb lower mark but was beaten 21l at Wexford when last seen in this sphere. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 |
14th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
12st 0lb |
Bolted up over C&D here in May (Fr Gilligansvoyage second) but pulled up in follow up bid off 5lb higher at Wexford; needs to bounce back but boasts course form figures of 221 so that's not impossible. |
15/2 |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Won over hurdles at this meeting last year and added a chase win at Tramore last time over 2m6f; the runner-up then has won since, so should be capable of going well off a 5lb higher mark. |

12st 0lb |
3-36 on the Flat and 2-30 over hurdles after signing off for Paul Flynn with a Punchestown win last October (2m, good to yielding); has been running okay on the AW for this yard; not discounted. |

4th 6 (5) |
12th May 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won over 2m at Tramore last August for Paul Flynn; yet to reach that form for his new stable, just fourth of five in 1m6f handicap at Southwell 19 days ago; more is required despite an easing mark. |
14/1 |

4th 4 (5) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Five-time winner in Ireland (hurdles/Flat) but he was well held in two starts for this yard at the end of last year; however, he seemed to be going quite well at the top of the straight before weakening into seventh at Kempton (2m, AW) 17 days ago and may take a step forward from that return to action. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 40y |
10st 8lb |
Off the mark in decisive fashion at Cork on latest, beating Surviving Murmansk by 3.75l; 6lb rise for that seems reasonable and it looked like he had plenty in hand; likely to go well again. |
11/4 |
|
1st 15 |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
10st 3lb |
Pick of form when runner-up in 2m Punchestown handicap in May (good-to-yielding), two recent Kilbeggan runs not without merit; one to consider. |
10/1 |
|
4th 16 |
10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 160y |
10st 6lb |
Attracted support at Down Royal in early May, let down by his jumping; much more like it when second in a 19-runner contest at Punchestown nine days later; failed to build on that at this venue next time, this longer trip may suit him better. |
