11st 10lb |
Won a bumper last August (2m3f, good) and a Kilbeggan opportunity maiden hurdle in September (2m3f, good/yielding); nothing like as effective since then; improved ground and cheekpieces may be a help. |

11st 5lb |
Irish raider who won a bumper in August (2m3f, good) and a Kilbeggan opportunity maiden hurdle in September (2m3f, good/yielding); not so good since, over 3m at Cheltenham on first occasion and with a tongue-tie over 2m6f last time; tongue-tie left off here; interesting. |

Successful over 2m3f in a bumper and maiden hurdle in last two completions, latest by half a length at Kilbeggan (good to yielding); steadily progressive and his yard has a good record in this race; respected. |

8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 180y |
11st 11lb |
Has achieved his best form at this venue, namely when twice second (in a maiden and a handicap) in the first half of 2025; moderate form last summer; always behind at Down Royal on return from a break; appears to be the trainer's second string. |

17th Mar 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 86y |
11st 13lb |
One of two for yard; some fair efforts in defeat last year but pulled up on heavy ground when last seen in November at Fairyhouse; these conditions more suitable, capable off this mark and not dismissed dropped in grade. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 92y |
11st 12lb |
Fair form earlier in the year, notably when twice runner-up at Downpatrick; more recent efforts have left a lot to be desired; moderate third in a maiden at Downpatrick in August; down the field in a handicap at the Listowel festival. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 116y |
10st 10lb |
Best maiden effort when runner-up at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) last August; three runs for next yard offered little; starts out for Claire O'Connell now with plenty to prove. |

17th Mar 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 86y |
10st 13lb |
Best maiden hurdle effort when runner-up at Downpatrick last August over 2m6f on good ground; finished in midfield on handicap debut at Navan; 6l behind Youlita when fifth here in January, may struggle to reverse that form |
12/1 |

20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |
11st 3lb |
Posted some solid efforts in a Perth bumper and opening three maiden hurdles; best effort runner-up at Downpatrick in August over 2m6f on good ground; finished in midfield on handicap debut at Navan; needs to raise his game now |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Better of two chase runs for Stuart Crawford in the winter when second of four at Ayr (2m, soft); also suited by good ground but was tailed off when back over hurdles for new stable six weeks ago (had wind op soon afterwards); needs to bounce back. |
14/1 |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Showed promise on five starts over hurdles, making the frame on three occasions, and took a clear step forward from chase debut when finishing a close second at Ayr (2m, soft) in January; has since left Stuart Crawford for 6,500gns and now returns to hurdles on a workable mark. |

Maiden was just denied in a Gowran handicap last time when finishing 14l in front of Harty Cup, though that one has improved since; should run well off 4lb higher for a new yard. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 83y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Looked like one for stayers' trips when taking a Downpatrick 2m6f maiden last summer (good), but unable to confirm that impression on her one run after; much the longest absent of these, and her mark is no gift. |

3rd 4 |
12th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 50y |
10st 13lb |
4yo filly rated 116 after three runs; won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle on penultimate (2m6f, good); good effort conceding weight to progressive sort in a novice back there on latest (21.5f, yld); shaped like further would suit so she should go well up in trip. |
2/1 |

2nd 4 |
19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 110y |
11st 5lb |
Excelled after being stepped up in trip here over 2m6f on second start last time (good), winning by 9.5l in the end; the choice of Kennedy with further improvement likely. |
5/2 |
