28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Listed winner at Dundalk (7f, AW) last October and running well in defeat this year, particularly at the Curragh (1m, good; Listed) this month when 2l runner-up in first-time cheekpieces (retained); with a clear run he'd have finished closer last time and holds each-way claims under a 3lb penalty. |

Consistent in stakes company on turf last season and signed off with a Listed win at Dundalk (7f) in October; beaten a head on seasonal return in Al Rayyan Mile at Doha (gd-fm); respectable third in Listed race at Newcastle latest; cheekpieces go on; in the mix. |

Sole win came in a Galway nursery on soft ground in July; was poor in a similar race at the Curragh last time and has a lot to find in this company; looks yard's second-string. |

One of two for yard; has progressed since tackling handicaps, winning at Galway off 72 and runner up over this C&D off 81 last time out (4lb higher now); decent run in the Ballyhane sandwiched between those efforts; needs to improve further to win off this mark. |

9st 2lb |
Irish colt who has performed creditably at Listed level since winning a notable maiden at York but needs improvement for the first-time headgear in this second start for new stable. |

25th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 180y |
9st 5lb |
Ex-Aidan O'Brien won the 7f Convivial at York on his third outing; confirmed a fair standard of form in 7f Listed races at Doncaster and Dundalk before changing hands for 100,000gns; useful prospect for Danny Murphy; unlikely to match former stablemate Charles Darwin. |

Got off the mark when winning a valuable York maiden and a solid run in a Doncaster Listed race since, both over this trip; should handle this surface; looks yard's first-string so can go well. |

Unsold for Eur5,500 as a yearling; half-sister to winners Jery Smaih (French/Spanish 10.5f-1m4f) and Forchester (French 6f-1m inc AW); dam 1m2f winner (RPR 91), half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 2 winner James Garfield; narrowly won a 7f Leopardstown barrier trial in August; the horses immediately behind her have both been runner-up in maidens; this a tough ask on debut but could run well. |

Solid fourth at Leopardstown on debut and improved on that when winning a Down Royal maiden, both over this trip; needs further improvement in this company but could get involved. |

Strong in the market before finishing fourth of 11 in a Leopardstown maiden last month when 2.5l ahead of Divelment and 1.5l behind Pliny; not much went right that day (awkward start and too keen early) and expect better this time. |

Ran a cracker in the Albany Stakes (Group 3) on second start; won a Leopardstown maiden (6.5f, good) on her next outing but she's been held in last two runs including when sixth of eight in a Listed race at Dundalk (7f, AW); still early days but she needs to find more back in trip. |

Posted a solid Curragh debut over 7f behind subsequent Group 1 winner Diamond Necklace but didn't improve on that at Punchestown since over 1m; has to resume progress; tongue-tie on. |

Winner of a 5f maiden at Naas last September on the second of three starts for Aidan O'Brien; finished last of eight, weakening from 1f out, in a 7f Listed event at Dundalk in October; provided reassurance that he stays this far when beaten only a head by the Ballydoyle-trained Causeway in the Madrid Handicap at Naas on debut for Danny Murphy. |
