21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Debut point-to-point winner bagged back-to-back wins over hurdles in September in a Galway handicap (2m7f, good to yielding) and a Downpatrick novice contest (2m6f, yielding); fell at the first at Galway next time and tailed off at Cheltenham when last seen in October; top-rated of these over hurdles. |

11st 8lb |
Early faller in Galway handicap when bidding for hat-trick after comfortable wins (2m6f, good to yielding/2m5f, yielding); faces no easy task off top weight in this field but may do better still. |

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. |
7/2 |

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. |

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. |

18th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 92y |
11st 12lb |
Won over 3m2f for Gordon Elliott in the early part of last season; may improve from a satisfactory 2m4f Listowel run on stable debut, though possibly needs further than this. |

Formerly with Gordon Elliott, for whom he won 3m2f Sligo handicap hurdle last summer; back from long absence when soon beaten on chase debut at Kilbeggan in May and absent again since; debuts for new yard. |

10st 5lb |
Two hurdle wins last year, a maiden at this venue (good) and a three-runner novice event at Tramore (good); fell five out on chasing debut at Tramore in April; returned to hurdling to record a neck victory in a 3m contest here eight weeks ago; 4lb higher with useful 5lb claimed. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 50y |

Two hurdle wins last year, a maiden here (good) and a three-runner novice event at Tramore; not disgraced in a Cork Listed novice hurdle in November; fell at five out on chasing debut at Tramore last month; not dismissed. |

20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Two hurdle wins last year, a maiden at Kilbeggan (good) and a three-runner novice event at this venue (good); 110-rated gelding out of the great Solerina; interesting on chase debut given his status as a course winner. |

10st 8lb |
Maiden is 0-4 over fences and has failed to complete three of his six starts in 2026; beaten 25l in Kilbeggan handicap hurdle on latest; hard to make a case. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |

Has been running over fences lately, mostly poorly and fell last time at Wexford; has a chance if back to best maiden hurdle runs of last year; trainer/jockey combination have a good strike-rate. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |
11st 3lb |
3-15 over hurdles but yet to score from five starts over fences and is rated 26lb lower; made an adequate seasonal return at Kilbeggan (3m2f, good to yielding) and should be better equipped to exploit his chase mark now; interesting, especially if market support arrives. |
10/1 |

21st Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 180y |
11st 6lb |
3-15 over hurdles but remains a maiden over fences after four runs and rated 25lb lower; ran okay off this mark at Tramore last August but lacks a recent and is best watched unless the market speaks. |
11/1 |
