9st 7lb |
Has lost way over hurdles and fences; won off 2lb lower at Dundalk (1m4f) in 2023 but 0-9 on turf on the Flat and others arrive in better form. |

Hurdle and dual chase winner was poor in this sphere last time after a couple of falls chasing; isn't well-treated at these weights. |

Dual chase winner at Thurles last year over 2m5f; not badly treated but probably in need of a confidence boost after two falls over fences; cheekpieces now as well as usual tongue-tie. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 1lb |
Jumps and travels well but is a weak finisher with a good few seconds to his name; positive is that his sole chase win came after four months off and ground will suit, but seems best right-handed. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 120y |
11st 9lb |
Won off 110 at Limerick (2m4f, good) in May; best run since on latest at Kilbeggan when a 2.75l second off 115 (20.5f, yielding); up 2lb for that and has placed at around this trip over hurdles; in the mix. |

11st 4lb |
Point winner didn't win in 10 hurdle starts but was often placed, including at this track; off the mark over fences when winning at Limerick in May; beaten 14l off this mark over C&D last time and needs more. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Long-standing maiden finally got it done when winning readily over hurdles last month; second in three of 13 chase starts, and some fair runs over fences without being placed in April/May; these types can kick on once they get their heads in front, and Donoghue prefers him to Sophia Rose. |

1st 6 |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 2f 185y |

Maiden has finished second 14 times and third six times across all codes; reverted from chasing to be second in Clonmel maiden hurdle last week. |

2nd 6 |
5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 113y |
11st 4lb |
Maiden under all codes in 33 races including 14 over hurdles but placed lots of times; some good chase runs lately (not last time) and should go well if back to best hurdles form. |

9st 11lb |
In the frame twice over hurdles at Kilbeggan and Downpatrick since Flat win at Sligo; up 4lb for that, same 7lb claimer aboard; chance has to be take seriously. |
5/1 |

4th 12 |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
10st 3lb |
1-18 over hurdles; went close to adding to that tally on latest at Kilbeggan when 0.75l behind Malbay Madness; 3lb better off now and rider also claims handy 3lb; could turn that around now and has gone well over this C&D before; place chance at least. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 7f 153y |
11st 2lb |
First reserve; Punchestown maiden hurdle winner broke his three-year winless streak when successful on the Flat at Sligo 12 days ago (1m3f, yielding to soft); not certain to back it up. |

10st 5lb |
Won a novice handicap chase at Sligo (17.5f, gd-yld) early this month from 5lb out of the handicap; narrowly denied in follow up bid at Tramore (15.5f, yielding) off 3lb higher; up another 2lb and this is a deeper race but she's in form and this trip suits; go well again. |
