9th 2 |
25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |
11st 11lb |
Dual-purpose; 3-11 over hurdles; solid Flat run at Navan (1m6f, heavy) after 156-day absence in March but has failed to fire in two handicap hurdles since; remains 9lb above last winning mark; may need respite from the handicapper. |

Four-time winner over shorter trips and only just denied over 2m at Thurles on final start last season; recent hurdle run should have put him straight and not one to rule out. |

9st 12lb |
Versatile mare gained a first Flat win over C&D at the 22nd attempt last month (Lariat 1.25l behind); ran to her mark over fences at Wexford last time; returns to the scene of her victory 4lb higher and could go well. |
5/1 |
|
4th 2 |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 120y |

Versatile mare scored on the Flat at Tramore (2m, good) on her latest outing; her sole win from five chase starts came in in this race last year (good) off 107; 5lb higher here but arrives in form and can't be discounted. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |
11st 10lb |
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. |
5/1 |
|
8th 7 (6) |
31st Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 6f 14y |
9st 12lb |
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. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 |
10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Two Flat wins in Germany early in his career, and Listed-placed; can be rated a possible future hurdles winner based on Punchestown fifth last month on handicap debut; slight reservation now on account of a suspicion that he might prefer a longer trip. |

12st 0lb |
3-36 on the Flat and 2-30 over hurdles after signing off for Paul Flynn with a Punchestown win last October (2m, good to yielding); has been running okay on the AW for this yard; not discounted. |
14/1 |
|
4th 6 (5) |
12th May 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
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. |
14/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
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. |

Out of form over hurdles/on the Flat in Ireland last year; caused 16-1 surprise in point at Hutton Rudby (3m, soft) last month, her third start for this stable, but was safely held on next outing; not easy to predict on chase debut. |

The latest of her five wins came over 1m4f at Roscommon in May; unseated early next time and 1m1.5f looked too short last time at Gowran; has to rebound. |
