29th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 109y |
9st 8lb |
Placed twice in maidens at Roscommon last year and again twice over this trip on the AW early this year; overdid the forcing tactics when disappointing in Ballinrobe claimer on latest, claimed afterwards for 5,000euros; definite chance on his best form. |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 133y |
8st 8lb |
Rated 69; placed twice in turf maidens at Roscommon last year; in okay form on AW when last seen earlier this year; gelded since and new headgear combination goes on; not straightforward but best treated by race conditions and the one to beat if ready after break. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 2lb |
Maiden was given a tough enough mark on his initial 2yo runs and struggled in a handicap here in January before better effort back in maiden company when staying on third over C&D in first-time tongue-tie; not too much to find with runner-up Arrietty on these revised terms and cheekpieces added. |

Strong in the market before finishing fourth of 11 in a Leopardstown maiden last month when 2.5l ahead of Divelment and 1.5l behind Pliny; not much went right that day (awkward start and too keen early) and expect better this time. |

One of four for trainer and appears the pick of them on jockey bookings; didn't get a clear run but ran on well on Down Royal debut (7f, good) when handled considerably and running green; Lucia Molloy was in front of him that day but with that run under his belt he can do better now. |

Ghaiyyath colt; cost 17,000eur as a foal and 30,000eur as a yearling; half-brother to 6f/7f winner American Star (including 2yo; RPR 93); dam unraced half-sister to winners Lilbourne Lad (6f Group 2 2yo) and Bobbyscot (Group-placed 7f/1m2f); trip should suit this interesting newcomer and worth a market check for yard that can ready one. |

Dual course winner over 6f/7f last year (beat Queen Leila and Iryna's Star in January); curbed by increase in rating last twice on AW, finishing sixth both occasions; underwhelming run on turf 15 days ago but soft ground an obvious excuse; steps up in trip and can be thereabouts. |

Best of three maiden runs came at Naas over 7f last September when a staying-on fourth; way below that level on first AW try; addition of a tongue-tie seemed to do the trick when he won narrowly at Dundalk on handicap debut; may struggle to cope with an 8lb rise; jockey booking a positive. |

9st 2lb |
Best of three maiden runs came second time up over 7f at Down Royal (good), a 1.75l third at 80-1; easy ground may not have suited on latest; not sure 6f will suit on nursery debut but worth a market check nonetheless. |

Supremacy filly; cost 19,000euros as a foal; dam Czech placed 1m3f Flat/2m hurdle, closely related to Czech/Italian/Slovak 1m4f-1m6f winner Touch Of Genius, half-sister to winners Festive Star (Italian 7.5f 2yo Listed) and Dorothy Lawrence (Group-placed 5f 2yo); chance this trip will suit but not an obvious candidate to be a winning newcomer. |

Fairly useful, consistent level of form in five starts, notably when second in 7f maidens at Galway and most recently at Down Royal; in between not quite so effective when second to a ready winner here over 6f; needs to settle better than of late but should again be in the mix. |
