14th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 45y |
11st 2lb |
Won two of his first three hurdle races; second off 10lb higher at Wexford last summer, but struggled afterwards; fair effort on stable debut at Killarney; didn't stay this sort of trip at Listowel on latest; blinkers. |

Won two of his first three hurdle races, including a maiden here; second off 5lb higher at Wexford last summer, but struggled afterwards; fair effort on stable debut at Killarney after seven months off; best form at up to 2m1f, and hasn't fared well when tried over this kind of trip. |

11st 4lb |
Has failed to distinguish herself since the controversy generated by her rider's unseat at the last in this race; travelled powerfully into the straight then and was well in command; out of her depth in a Listed race at Killarney last time; previously only a moderate third at Tramore, but in front of Oh So Charming and Hasten Slowly, with War Correspondent pulled up. |

Hasn't won since joining this yard last year after unseating with the race at her mercy in a Wexford claimer; decent efforts in opening two runs for this yard, but not at her best recently; needs to bounce back; cheekpieces go on. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |
11st 10lb |
Veteran ran a fine race over fences at Ballinrobe (2m4f, yld-sft) in June but didn't back it up at Killarney on latest (2m1f, gd-yld); hasn't won over hurdles since 2021 and would prefer softer ground; new headgear combination tried now. |

Veteran's most recent win came in this race last year off 2lb lower; rediscovered form in the spring in 2m4f veterans' handicaps, finishing fine third at Haydock and good second (having hit last) at Ballinrobe; has to be considered. |

17th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 60y |
11st 2lb |
Six-time winner over hurdles, including this race last year when seeing off World Of Fortunes by 0.5l; that rival is 7lb better off this time around but she arrives here on the back of a Listowel handicap win (3m, good) and will make a good fist of it for her local handler. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Third in a 2m4f handicap at this meeting last year and afterwards won a Listed race (2m7f) and was second in a 3m handicap at Punchestown; could strip fitter for last month's return to action at Killarney. |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Useful chaser when trained by John McConnell in Ireland but absent since last of 15 in competitive handicap hurdle in May; eased in grade for this stable debut but his usual headgear is missing; the market may guide. |
16/1 |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Inconsistent chaser who's saved his best for Cheltenham in 2025 and 2026, including a win (his only handicap success) in January 2025 and third at the Festival this March; both were over an extended 2m4f and he's shown his form only once from seven attempts under rules over 3m+; not the percentage call. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
9lb higher when beaten 3.5l by Riskintheground 12 months ago; 0-10 in the meantime but the new visor worked well when a never-nearer third in the Plate at Cheltenham last month and clear claims if he can back that up. |

10st 6lb |
Hasn't added to Punchestown maiden win (2m3f, good) of last summer, decent second to Grann's Boy at Listowel but never counting behind Duke Silver over just shy of this trip here at Christmas; questions to answer. |

Lightly raced 5yo won a 2m3f Punchestown maiden in June (gd-yld); came up short when last of seven in a listed hurdle at Galway (16.5f, good) on latest; back up in trip for handicap debut and has to be respected for top yard. |

Won a big staying handicap hurdle at the Galway festival; second in a conditions hurdle at the same venue last month; in good form on the Flat late last season, winning a 2m handicap at Thurles, ran to a similar level when second over 1m6f at Navan in March. |

17th Jan 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 4f 40y |
11st 2lb |
One of four for trainer; two-time Flat winner and maiden hurdle winner; creditable efforts in his last three handicaps, a 2l runner-up at Navan (2m5f, heavy) before staying on for a modest fourth in a Listed contest at Navan when 3lb wrong (3m1f, soft to heavy); third at Limerick last time when he could offer no more close home (3m, soft to heavy); can go well again but Kennedy chooses another. |

Useful five-time winner for Peter Fahey who changed hands for 25,000euros last November; two handicap chase runs for this yard well below best, as was recent 3m Listowel handicap hurdle effort; questions to answer on ground on the soft side for the 9yo. |

Useful five-time winner for Peter Fahey who changed hands for 25,000euros last November; two chase runs since, unseating early and tailed off; something to prove, including her stamina, but she won over hurdles in the reapplied visor last October; interesting to see what the market makes of her. |
