6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Had form in Irish bumpers; steadily progressive profile over hurdles, last time going down by 8l on handicap debut at Plumpton (2m, good); lacks a change of gear so going up in trip could help matters, as might the first-time hood. |
4/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
A fair ex-Irish bumper performer who recorded easily his best effort over hurdles when third of five in novice over C&D 13 days ago; well in the mix with likely better still to come now handicapping. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Showed promise when making the frame in two bumpers in Ireland (soft to heavy/yielding); however, tailed off on his first two hurdle starts (2m, soft/good to soft) and needs to be an entirely different proposition today. |

10st 13lb |
Well held in both starts in bumpers at Galway; sent off at 9-2 and 8-1 for those races so must have been showing something at home; worth a market check on hurdles debut for shrewd yard. |

Dropped out to be tailed off here in July (good) but did race freely and was short in the betting at 9-2; better expected. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
0-3 in points and has the same strike-rate in both bumpers and on the Flat; he's by no means devoid of ability but needs to step up. |
12/1 |

9th 5 (5) |
11th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 90y |

Dual-purpose maiden; similar RPRs in mid 60s in two 1m4f Flat runs at Dundalk; will qualify for handicaps after this. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 20y |
11st 12lb |
Ran respectably behind odds-on favourite I'm Slippy when 66-1 second in a 2m Cork maiden hurdle last November; no impact over 2m4f at Killarney after a break. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |

No match for the winner in a Cork maiden hurdle in November and this is even tougher. |

Finished with only one behind him in a bumper at Galway; not a likely contender. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 2f 101y |
11st 6lb |
Walk In The Park 5yo cost 13,000euros as a 3yo, is closely related to 2m3f hurdle winner The Street and half-brother to 2m chase winner Don Occhetti; Galway bumper winner (yielding) made all in Thurles maiden hurdle in November; fair effort on latest in Limerick Listed Handicap at Christmas, never dangerous fourth on testing ground; others likely have more scope for improvement. |

2nd 6 |
25th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 90y |
11st 5lb |
Walk In The Park 4yo cost 13,000euros as a 3yo; closely related to 2m3f hurdle winner The Street, half-brother to 2m chase winner Don Occhetti; dam placed half-sister to very smart 2m hurdler Countrywide Flame; nicely improved on third bumper outing to win here 18 days ago, responding well to pressure and maintaining an inside route to assert closing stages (yielding); no time wasted switching to hurdles, should go well. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Not beaten far in a Galway bumper on debut; unconvincing hurdles form so far (including well held on completed start in handicaps) but Sean Bowen enlisted by an Irish yard no stranger to Perth success over the years, although not so much in recent times; betting interesting. |
6/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |

Not beaten far in a Galway bumper on debut but hasn't kicked from that; wouldn't be the obvious answer on handicap debut. |

25th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Well beaten in three runs over hurdles (2m-2m3f) and finished a 38l fourth of five on last month's chase/handicap debut at Ffos Las (2m, heavy); may do better in time but others have more obvious claims. |
25/1 |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Didn't see out the trip in two Irish bumpers, and the margins of defeat have been increasing in maiden/novice hurdles since; some encouragement on breeding for fences (nephew of Mikael D'Haguenet), at least. |
10/1 |

Ex-Irish; modest form over hurdles and others appeal more. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
After minor wins in Ireland he went off 50-1 for the 2m5f Grade 1 Turners at Cheltenham but he defied those odds to finish third, in spite of so much going wrong during the race (got behind after suffering interference); the manner in which he stayed on offers plenty of encouragement for this extra yardage; it's a nagging concern that only four 5yos have won this since 1988 but intriguing otherwise. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 22 |
11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Safely held when second to Riskaway at Thurles (2m4f, good to yielding) but improved since; followed a wide-margin win there (yielding to soft) by responding well for pressure to score at Navan (also 2m, soft to heavy); the step back up in trip is probably of little concern and he might surprise a few. |
40/1 |
|
1st 3 |
17th Jan 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 8lb |
Placed on both bumper starts; beaten 1 1/4l by a subsequent maiden hurdle winner at Galway on the first occasion; no match for a short-priced Gordon Elliott inmate on hurdling debut over 2m4f at Thurles; recovered from a bad error two out when a runaway winner over 2m at Thurles four weeks ago; promising sort. |
