8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 150y |
12st 0lb |
Has won over hurdles and fences at Kilbeggan; was a solid second at Down Royal but made a bad mistake there last time and ran below form; has to rebound after just four days. |

Mare likes good ground and has won over hurdles and fences at Kilbeggan; chase win was off 107 last summer and stuck to her guns when second over C&D in lower-grade contest last time. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 50y |

A win apiece over hurdles and fences, both at Kilbeggan on good ground; soundly beaten since his last win in August; this better ground will suit her but others make more appeal. |

11st 11lb |
Flattered by second placing in a 21.5f Tramore beginners' chase on stable debut when benefitting from carnage at the second last fence; however, she was staying on pretty nicely so looks worth a go at this longer trip back over hurdles; visor goes on. |

20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 160y |
11st 5lb |
3-16 over hurdles for John McConnell, the wins coming at 2m3f-2m5f; has failed to match that over fences; has changed to a leading local stable; talented 5lb claimer rides. |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Is 3-16 over hurdles but not at the same level over fences as of yet; there are signs of improvement, though and her run at Perth last time was her best so far; could be more improvement in new set of headgear. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Back-to-back wins over similar trips to this last September and on good or yielding ground that he's not had in his last four races; however, current wellbeing is an issue and so too the blinkers in which he was tailed off last time when first fitted. |
10/1 |

3-20 over hurdles; shaped like the run was needed after six months off at Sligo on latest when 33-1; remains 2lb above last win and might need another run or two to hit top form. |

4th Nov 2025 Soft 3m 0f 0y |

Now 0-10 over fences having been an unplaced favourite over a longer trip at Down Royal 12 days ago; this is probably closer to his optimum distance; first reserve. |

Winning hurdler is 0-9 over fences but has run well in defeat; took third here on St Stephen's Day (2m5f, good to yielding) and 11l behind in fourth last time (2m5f, yielding to soft); tries this trip for the first time; place chance. |

Three-time chase winner is rated 15lb lower in this sphere; won over fences at Ayr in February (3m, soft), his second win at that venue; 2lb wrong here though and all four wins on soft and heavy ground. |
14/1 |

12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 50y |
11st 12lb |
Has a liking for Ayr with two of his three chase wins coming there, including in February (3m, soft); that win came after a moderate season; lacked the pace at an important stage at Sedgefield last time (3m3f, good); needs to do it away from Ayr. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 59y Class 4 |

3-29 over fences; very inconsistent nowadays but won readily at Ayr (3m, soft) last month and a subsequent 4lb rise is manageable if he's in the right mood again here. |

Maiden hurdle winner who is 0-10 over fences; has placed form but he fell in March and his jumping lacked fluency at Wexford last time. |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner last year is 0-9 chasing but some good placed efforts at around 3m, early last season; halfway faller on return to track in March and now takes a marked drop in trip. |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 1f 80y |
11st 3lb |
Made all to win by 15l over C&D in August, her sole win; was well-held over fences since and has a 9lb higher mark to cope with today but a 7lb claimer helps so has to be considered. |
4/1 |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
10st 4lb |
Winner of fifth point start; two chasing runs under rules have seen him tailed off and pulled up; nonetheless, there is encouragement to be found in his recent hurdles form with back-to-back runner-up finishes before a wide margin victory at Sligo last time (3m1f, good); he is a huge player if he can bring that form to fences. |
6/1 |
|
9 |
20th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 118y |
10st 4lb |
Now 0-23 over hurdles but runner-up the last twice on good ground, clear with winner over 3m1f at Kilbeggan and similarly over 2m7f at Bangor last month in today's headgear combination; should again be thereabouts and yard in much better form now. |
