2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Record over C&D reads 1233 and he's back off the same mark as when successful at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) in February; player in the returning cheekpieces. |

3rd 8 (1) |
18th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Scored over C&D in December (off 3lb lower) and at Chelmsford in February; has run respectably since, including when beaten favourite at Bath last time; remains on a competitive mark and won't be far away. |
6/1 |

3rd 3 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual winner on the AW since joining this stable; pulled hard and unfortunate not to finish closer at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) four days ago, denied a clear passage; may settle better with the hood back on (visor removed) and is one to consider seriously. |

Versatile sort won over hurdles at Listowel in June but has failed to fire in that sphere twice since; returns to the Flat in a first-time visor; others arrive in better form. |

Dual-purpose winner won a Listowel handicap hurdle in June but was beaten 13l by Putapoundinthejar at Bellewstown last time; has to rebound. |

Sole success came over this trip on soft ground at Navan in October; solid efforts either side of hurdles run; ground may be too quick. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Finished 2025 in fine form, signing off with a win at Roscommon (1m4f, soft); yet to hit top gear this season, though her latest run at Galway was better than the bare result (hampered); remains 9lb above her last win, however. |

5th 14 (8) |
31st Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 6f 14y |
9st 9lb |
Took a big rise in the ratings for a 15l Roscommon win last season; unplaced in two early-season outings; blinkered first time; still a bit high in handicap. |

Improved since handicapping but was a beaten favourite when 2l behind Nancee Spain at Roscommon last month and needs progress to turn that around. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Maiden started the season with three respectable runs over 1m4f; form has dipped the last twice, tailed off when upped to 2m at Tramore on latest; headgear worn that day is discarded; needs to revive. |
20/1 |

10th 10 (1) |
15th Aug 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Now winless from 17 Flat starts but has posted some solid runs this season, including when chasing home an easy winner over 1m4f here on penultimate; hampered at Killarney last time when beaten 7l; tries this trip on the Flat for the first time in his career; tongue-tie added. |
7/1 |
|
10th 12 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 103y |
9st 1lb |
Low-grade maiden has posted solid runs in three starts this year, most recently chasing home a 10l winner over this trip at Tramore eight days ago (third has won since, Vervain fourth); should be in the mix and good draw. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Sole success came on yielding ground in this race last year when a 33-1 shot; same mark now but beaten 11.5l on sole start this season at Sligo in May; would probably prefer an ease in the ground. |
22/1 |

5th 14 (6) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |
8st 10lb |
Got a win on the board over 1m6f at Navan in August but well held afterwards, and is probably going to need this first run of the year. |

Dual-purpose maiden; 0-4 over hurdles and rated 89; well beaten on Flat on last two starts; new tongue tie needs to have dramatic effect. |

Carried out early in a hurdle race last time; previously in rear in a C&D handicap at 50-1; transformation needed. |

23rd Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 205y |
12st 3lb |
Very modest on the Flat (0-17, rated 37); some signs of ability over hurdles last season; has been sharpened by two Flat runs since joining this stable and may improve; premature to write off. |
10/1 |
|
10 (4) |
9th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 132y |

0-16 on the Flat and low-key yard debut at Bellewstown last week; plenty to prove at present. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 205y |

18-race maiden who achieved precious little this year and now in another new yard. |
