It was a claimer in which he ran second at Bellewstown recently (1m, soft) and then never landed a blow from off the pace at Roscommon; no wins in 14 but best form has been on the AW; cheekpieces enlisted. |

Looks a limited performer under both codes and new blinkers need to make a difference. |

Poor form in maiden hurdles prior to some minor promise at Downpatrick last month; tailed off on the Flat at Galway since; enough to prove. |

Maiden has yet to trouble the judge; blinkers tried and handicapper relenting but remains hard to fancy. |

Modest Flat performer didn't run that badly in two previous maiden hurdles at Ballinrobe and Killarney but he's likely to be seen to better effect when tackling handicaps. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Shaped well on his stable debut at Lingfield (6f, AW) in February but hamstrung by slow starts on his next three starts; further blotted his copybook when refusing to race at Windsor in May; well backed back at Windsor (5f, good to firm) ten days ago and again not foot perfect leaving the stalls but he overcame some adversity (stumbled early and had to be switched in the straight) to win going away; little doubt he has the ability to defy his penalty but there are risks attached. |

On a competitive mark on form as recent as February but he got loose and was withdrawn before the start here early last month, and refused to race here subsequently; comes with risks attached. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |

Ex-Irish gelding who's got into the habit of fluffing the start for this yard, which also saddles Rye; can pull hard too and comes with risks, returned to turf and going without the hood tonight. |
