22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 110y |
11st 8lb |
Four-time hurdles winner; not solid on his form this term, latterly for new yard; unseated rider at Taunton over fences on latest; best form is on better ground than this. |

11st 9lb |
Three wins at Downpatrick and one at Carlisle which was the latest in February; showed nothing in two runs since that win but encouraging signs when fourth at Gowran 20 days ago and he's back on his last winning mark. |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
8st 12lb |
Added a third Flat win at Navan last time (1m5f, good) in a big field by a neck; had Trubshaw 5.5l behind that day; up 5lb but should remain competitive; has never raced at this track. |

25th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 5f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Won over 1m4f at Roscommon (good) last August and added a Wexford maiden hurdle (good) ten days later; should be better for last month's run when fifth over 1m6f here, 1 3/4l behind the reopposing Earthsong. |

C&D (yielding) winner in October 2024 off 11lb lower; won again over 1m4f at Roscommon (good) last August and added a Wexford maiden hurdle (good) 10 days later; out of sorts in four runs in both codes since then and ground probably not ideal here. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |
11st 3lb |
Dual-purpose; 2-14 over hurdles, the latest win coming off 5lb lower at Gowran (2m4f, soft) in October; not a bad run when fading in the closing stages at Punchestown latest (23.5f, yielding) after a break; sharper now, this shorter trip a plus and has run well here on the Flat; in the mix. |

10st 3lb |
Three-time Flat winner won his second hurdle race at Gowran over 2m4f last October but was pulled-up at this track next time; poor on the Flat latest; others make more appeal |

Three-time Flat winner added his second hurdles win with a hard-fought victory at Gowran (2m4f) in October; makes AW debut now after being pulled up over hurdles at Punchestown when last seen; 4lb above last Flat winning mark but not ruled out. |

2nd 4 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |
11st 11lb |
Useful form in the first half of last season on decent ground, won a Down Royal maiden after several solid placed efforts; very soft ground was against her on reappearance at Limerick last month; may begin to prosper again on better going. |
8/1 |
|
5th 2 |
16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 50y |
11st 8lb |
Off the mark in Down Royal maiden last summer (2m1f, good) and better form when second in 2m Gowran handicap on soft; after a break didn't count in very valuable Leopardstown mares' handicap at the DRF in February; this is less competitive so don't rule out. |

1st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 2f 0y |

Built on some positive maiden hurdle efforts to get off the mark at Down Royal in August (2m1f, good); second over a longer trip at Gowran in her first handicap, overall form is solid. |

1-31 under rules, with sole win coming in a Gowran handicap chase in 2023; posted a decent effort over timber last time when staying on for a 3l fourth (3m, soft to heavy); up 1lb and overall record is off-putting. |

Ended last term with a good effort over a near-4m trip at Punchestown, though beaten 20l in third (4l to spare over Lonesome Boatman); has warmed up with a hurdles run at Gowran; definite chance. |
