29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Ran twice over 1m4f at Roscommon for Jack Davison last summer, finishing third on debut (good) before seeing off 14 rivals on soft ground a fortnight later; can win more races for new connections (sold for 75,000gns last October) but he drops in trip on faster ground and has to concede chunks of weight to some promising 3yos so this might not be one of them. |

Sea The Stars gelding; brother to Group-placed 1m AW winner Fresnel (RPR 99), closely related to Italian 1m3f-1m7f winner Fortunino (inc Listed); dam unraced; eye-catching C&D debut last month, staying on from well off the pace to press for second behind a clear winner; improvement expected and one to consider. |

9st 8lb |
Both runs on slow ground; fourth of 14 over 1m here last October and was returning from 319 days away when a keeping-on runner-up at Roscommon (1m4f) with two of today's rivals behind; solid claims. |

Sent off at 50-1 on sole start in a Curragh maiden last October when 8.5l behind the winner (1m, yielding to soft); gelded since and has missed a couple of intended comeback runs; likely improver upped in trip. |

Half-sister to the talented Thunder Kiss; third in two of her four starts in maidens; ran poorly over 1m2f on heavy ground at Leopardstown on her only handicap start; premature to write off. |

0-6 over middle-distances on turf for Jim Bolger last year but made the frame on five occasions; changed hands for 32,000gns in October and makes her stable/AW debut after 200 days off; market useful. |

Has been consistent in defeat in five maidens up to this trip; might have found the ground too testing when a bit below her best at Listowel last time; prominent racer needs a bit more but likely to be involved. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |

Promise in his two Irish Flat maidens; justified favouritism in juvenile hurdles at Catterick (good) and Wetherby (soft) and a seven-runner handicap against older horses at Sedgefield (good to soft); won latest with more authority than 2l margin suggests, but this race is a vastly harder task; failed to make the cut for the 4yo handicap here on Tuesday. |

Showed promise in a couple of Flat maidens in Ireland; has justified favouritism in juvenile hurdles at Catterick (1m7f, good; by a head) and Wetherby (2m, soft; by half a length) for new trainer, who is currently in blinding form; still open to progress and commands respect. |

Ended last Flat season with a respectable fifth on handicap debut in a 25-runner 1m2f Curragh race on heavy ground; fit from hurdling before beginning new Flat campaign with an encouraging fifth at Leopardstown; not as good at that venue last time, but may improve on previous hurdling form. |

Soundly beaten at big odds in handicap hurdles at this venue (11th of 12 finishers) and Sligo (last of 16) before showing dramatic improvement to win at Wexford last Friday; trainer suggested that the removal of a hood might have been a major factor; hard to find any positives in last season's form in Flat maidens; good Flat pedigree, unwise to discount. |
