3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 12lb |
121-rated hurdler made a promising enough start to chasing when third in 2m7f beginners' here in May, not quite getting home under positive ride; shorter trip here could suit, but more needed. |
15/2 |

3rd 3 |
7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 12lb |
121-rated hurdler who won 2m5f Navan maiden early last season (yielding) but struggled in handicaps, too keen when pulled up at Fairyhouse last time; half-brother to Grade 2-winning chaser Westerner Lady so fair chance he'll take to chasing. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 110y |
10st 10lb |
With top yard but has failed to build on his September Navan maiden hurdle victory (2m5f, yielding); beaten 27l and then pulled up in first two handicaps at Leopardstown on contrasting ground; others preferred. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 5lb |
In fine form, winning over 2m4f at Punchestown festival and good efforts off much higher marks since, chasing home an 8l winner over this trip at Ballinrobe and not quite getting home over 3m1f when third at Kilbeggan last month; trip/ground okay and should go well again. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
11st 6lb |
In fine form; won by 11l off 12lb lower at Punchestown (19.5f, yielding); creditable 8l second of 16 off revised mark at Ballinrobe (22.5f, good), staying on well; step up in trip looks a good move on that evidence and should go well again off 1lb higher. |

2nd 8 |
25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |
11st 2lb |
Breakthrough win over hurdles on latest at Punchestown (19.5f, yielding); hit hard with an 11lb hike for that 11l victory and consistency has never been a strong suit, so is no banker to back that up. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Initially disappointing for new stable this year but easily landed gamble in Bangor handicap (2m7f, good) in March, and did not need to be at same level to justify skinny odds in Uttoxeter novice (2m7f, good) this month; has a big penalty but should still be hard to beat. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Miles clear with one other when beaten just over 1l in a Market Rasen 0-125 handicap latest (3m, good; RPR 118), and this novice contest isn't anywhere near as deep; yet to register form of that calibre with give underfoot, but possible he could get away with it here even if rain arrives. |
4/11 |

2nd 4 |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
The same combination of a sharp track, good ground and stayers' trip of his peak Irish effort similarly worked the oracle at Bangor last time; a 9lb re-raise demands another big step forward, though that's not impossible having won with far more in hand than the near-3l verdict may infer. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 12y |
11st 11lb |
Bumper winner on debut, yet to add to that; his fifth of 23 in 2m4f Leopardstown handicap over Christmas would give him a chance; well beaten on bad ground next time; had a spin on the Flat last month. |
10/1 |

13th 3 (11) |
24th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 2f 100y |
10st 7lb |
Bumper winner; 0-12 over hurdles and rated 112; solid run on the Flat when sixth of 23 at the Curragh in November (1m4f, heavy); this trip may be on the sharp side but each-way possibilities. |
10/1 |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 7f 110y |

Bumper winner is 0-11 over hurdles but ran well in defeat at times in maidens; solid run on the Flat in November (1m4f, heavy) and was a close fifth at Leopardstown last time (2m4f, good to yielding); not ruled out and this ground may suit better. |

3rd Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 40y |

Best effort in maidens his last one, a 13l sixth of 14 at Navan (2m5f, yielding); opening mark of 107 could be workable on that evidence (split 113 and 110 rated rivals); not discounted on handicap bow. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 185y |
10st 6lb |
Off the mark in his second handicap start at Fairyhouse in January (2m4f, soft); hit with a 10lb rise for that and pulled up when upped to 2m7f at Thurles (signs of delayed recovery post race); needs to bounce back with a tongue tie added but big contender if he does. |
