11st 7lb |
Front-runner has won three times on the Flat at around 1m6f, each time in headgear (none on today); no match for an impressive winner when second of 12 on Listowel hurdles bow three weeks ago; can improve for in-form yard. |

Front-runner has won three times on the Flat, over around 1m6f, each time in headgear; rated 74 in that discipline; will need farther in due course over hurdles, but a leading player if he takes to jumping; goes without any aids this time. |

Won twice last year, including 1m6f Curragh handicap in October; had found revised mark beyond him this year until recording a third win for this rider at Killarney two weeks ago, making all to score readily in first-time blinkers; raised 8lb and may be vulnerable as a result. |

Came from some way back in today's headgear to be a close third over 2m4f at Bellewstown last month; Daniel King back on board here for the Galway Hurdle winning combination and hard not to see him going close. |

Flat winner in Germany was poor in that sphere at Galway but has a squeak on some of his hurdle runs, notably a fifth at Punchestown in June; the hood and tongue-tie are new. |

Two Flat wins in Germany early in his career, and Listed-placed; can be rated a possible future handicap hurdle winner on recent form; potentially interesting back on the Flat now. |

12th May 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Won over 2m at Tramore last August for Paul Flynn; yet to reach that form for his new stable, just fourth of five in 1m6f handicap at Southwell 19 days ago; more is required despite an easing mark. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Five-time winner in Ireland (hurdles/Flat) but he was well held in two starts for this yard at the end of last year; however, he seemed to be going quite well at the top of the straight before weakening into seventh at Kempton (2m, AW) 17 days ago and may take a step forward from that return to action. |
