Well handicapped on his form for Willie Mullins as recent as last November but well beaten on final two starts for that yard and it's been the same story on his three outings for this stable; major turnaround needed. |

Progressive mare won handicaps at Ballinrobe and Kilbeggan earlier this term, and added a further win with career-best in taking 2m6f Galway conditions event early this month, produced late to win going away; clearly in terrific form, although drop back to 2m may not be ideal. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 129y |
10st 7lb |
Back to back handicap hurdle wins at Ballinrobe and Kilbeggan earlier this term; fine effort to finish a 2.75l third of 20 off 126 in the Tribes here last month; beaten favourite on the Flat at Tramore sole start since; mares' allowance and rider's claim bring her into the picture. |

Has been in the form of her career this season, winning handicap hurdles at Ballinrobe and Kilbeggan before finishing a close third at Galway; now rated 129 in that sphere so has to be respected on Flat debut over a trip that will suit. |

11st 4lb |
Won three times (2m2f, 2m4f) when trained in Ireland last summer; unplaced in three valuable handicap hurdles (2m4f-2m7f) for new trainer this spring; the drop back in trip for his chasing debut may not be in his favour. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
10st 0lb |
In the form of his life and seeking a hat-trick, following wins at Limerick and when beating Femme Magnifique decisively at Wexford last month (good); 2lb wrong here, but talented rider's claim offsets that; big player again, although may need to jump better now raised in class. |

Improved on his three previous chase runs when winning a Limerick handicap last time over 2m1f; raised 7lb and in grade so will have to do more, but a capable 5lb claimer helps. |

Without a win for two years, but right back to form on his last two starts, especially when second wearing this headgear over 2m2f at Downpatrick last month; solid claims once more. |

2nd 6 |
31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
10st 8lb |
Six-time winner over hurdles and fences; somewhat in and out this year but was very much on a going day when narrowly beaten in a 1m7f handicap chase at Tramore last time; stable does well here and a clear chance if he can reproduce that; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 |
16th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 140y |

Six-time winner, including over C&D in a novice chase two years ago; form has been in and out over the last 12 months but best effort in that time came over C&D when 4.25l second off 4lb higher in May; below form last twice, pulled up at Wexford 47 days ago; on a good mark if return to this track sparks him up again. |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Back-to-back winner of handicap hurdle at Roscommon and Galway last summer, both at around 2m on good ground; testing conditions were against him at Navan in February; harder to excuse a poor Downpatrick run; unplaced at Kilbeggan last time; could make a summer chaser but will probably need to gain experience. |

Is 3-30 over hurdles with his most recent win coming at Ballinrobe in July off a mark of 96 (2m1f, good); beaten a long way off a 4lb higher mark back at that track last time (2m, good); could bounce back here. |

In good form over hurdles in 2023; comfortable winner of a Ballinrobe handicap hurdle (2m, good to yielding) and followed that up with a mares' handicap hurdle win back at that track (2m, good) off 113 under today's rider; returns to hurdling now after losing her form badly in three chase runs. |
