30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won nursery debut for Joseph O'Brien at Naas (1m, yielding to soft) last September and easily followed up at Bellewstown (1m, soft), both in a tongue-tie; having shot up the weights he reappeared with sixth of ten when 66-1 for stable debut at Ascot (7f, good) three weeks ago, which is his highest rating; could build on that (as he needs to) with tongue-tie reapplied this time. |

Greatly improved for the step up to 1m and switch to handicaps on final two starts for Joseph O'Brien, winning both attempts (yielding to soft/soft) last autumn; sold for 110,000gns since and gelded; has very different conditions today and goes without his regular tongue-tie. |

Juvenile form with Michael Mulvany wasn't progressive, never competitive on handicap bow final start on soft; since joined Andy Oliver and handicapper has given him a chance. |

Cheaply bought; has offered little in 7f maidens, although was set a stiff task behind subsequent Group 2 winner Constitution River at Galway in July; blinkers on for handicap debut; market may reveal expectations. |

Has struggled in 7f-1m maidens to date, including when a remote fourth over C&D in July; local trainer targets this venue, so much better can be expected on her handicap debut; player. |

Homebred nursery winner over 7f on heavy ground and staying-on sixth over 1m (soft) in higher-grade Curragh contest on recent return to action; dam won over 1m and he should stay, but easy ground is said to be important to him. |

Struggled in maidens; eyecatching fifth when making up ground from rear on her handicap debut at Down Royal; rattled home late when third to Synners Kid at Naas two weeks ago; big pull in the weights with that rival; player in first-time cheekpieces. |

Struggled in maidens but was an eyecatcher when making up ground from rear at Down Royal 13 days ago when making her handicap debut; shaped like another step up in trip would suit and warrants respect despite 3lb rise. |
