8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Irish stable won this two years ago; placed in both his handicaps, the latest when headed late on in the Ulster Derby at Down Royal (1m5f, soft); suffered another narrow defeat when the standard-setter in a 1m4f maiden at the Curragh (good to firm); hard to call him progressive, but trainer always respected on her forays here and cheekpieces are a first. |
7/1 |

2nd 4 (1) |
19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Sets the standard on 83 after seven runs; one of his best efforts came in a Down Royal handicap last time (1m5f, soft) when headed late on into second; a repeat of that could see him go close. |

2nd 10 (5) |

8st 7lb |
Not beaten far on his only handicap start; has failed to improve in two more recent attempts in maidens; 2lb wrong, rider claims a useful 5lb. |

9st 5lb |
One of four for trainer; some good runs in defeat in four maidens, including when beaten a head by Madbadanddangerous over C&D last month (yielding to soft); couldn't justify 5-6 favouritism at Thurles three days ago (1m, good to yielding) and McMonagle jumps off now. |

4th 1 (1) |
9th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 44y |
9st 9lb |
Encouraging debut at Leopardstown before hitting the frame in 7f Galway maiden; headed late on when narrowly denied at Naas (7f, yielding to soft) in first-time tongue-tie (retained) three weeks ago; the third bolted up at Killarney on Monday; sets a good standard up in trip. |

2nd 2 (7) |
18th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Encouraging debut at Leopardstown when beaten roughly 6l before hitting the frame in a Galway maiden over this trip (beaten roughly 2l); form has a solid look to it and he's a big player if he takes to the first-time tongue-tie given that we know he'll handle conditions. |

9st 5lb |
One of four for trainer; some debut promise at the Curragh and stepped up on that run (albeit beaten odds-on favourite) when just going down in a prolonged duel over 7.5f at Roscommon in August; sent off odds on again at Tipperary later that month (7.5f, yielding) where he finished behind both Redemption Road and Madbadanddangerous; McMonagle jumps ship now |

31st Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 110y |
9st 7lb |
Some debut promise on Curragh debut and stepped up on that run (albeit beaten odds-on favourite) when just going down in prolonged duel over this trip at Roscommon; has to concede weight but sets the standard and major player. |
11/10 |

2nd 4 (6) |
19th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 111y |
9st 5lb |
Second runner for yard; sent off at 40-1 on debut in a strong maiden at the Curragh (7f, good) and wasn't beaten all that far in eighth, running on nicely from the back; preferred by the stable jockey and a very interesting runner. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Took a high rating into this season after finishing 6 3/4l behind Christmas Day in a Leopardstown Group 3 on final 2yo start; was entitled to win a Naas maiden on Wednesday on his third run this term; probably vulnerable with a 7lb penalty. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Took a rating of 95 into this season after finishing 6.75l behind Christmas Day in a Leopardstown Group 3 on final 2yo start; hasn't run to that level in both starts this season; still top-rated in this but vulnerable too; looks stable first-string. |
11/4 |

2nd 11 (13) |
1st Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 120y |

Rated 92 after five starts; respectable runs in Goffs Million and valuable auction series final at Naas; 6.75l sixth of 8 in Leopardstown Group 3 in October; beaten favourite on seasonal return at the Curragh (7f, heavy); gelded since; big chance on the figures but stamina to prove; due to run 3.50 Listowel on Saturday. |

12th Oct 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 3lb |
One of four for trainer and appears the pick of them on jockey bookings; didn't get a clear run but ran on well on Down Royal debut (7f, good) when handled considerably and running green; Lucia Molloy was in front of him that day but with that run under his belt he can do better now. |

Ghaiyyath colt; cost 17,000eur as a foal and 30,000eur as a yearling; half-brother to 6f/7f winner American Star (including 2yo; RPR 93); dam unraced half-sister to winners Lilbourne Lad (6f Group 2 2yo) and Bobbyscot (Group-placed 7f/1m2f); trip should suit this interesting newcomer and worth a market check for yard that can ready one. |

8st 13lb |
Tipperary maiden winner last year over extended 7f on yielding; backed it up when second to the smart Limestone on heavy at Listowel; returned this term with a clear career-best when 3.25l third to Thesecretadversary in Group 3 over C&D; didn't back that up last time out at the Curragh but each-way chance with conditions to suit down in trip. |

4th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |

1-5 as a two-year-old, the win coming in a 7.5f (yielding) Tipperary maiden in August; huge step forward on latest when running on nicely for a 3.25l third in a Leopardstown Group 3 (Geryon and Iron Lily behind); step back up to 1m looks sure to suit; go well if handling this quicker ground (half-brother won on good to firm). |

9st 7lb |
Consistent apart from a poor Navan run in May; bounced back from that reverse to win the Ulster Derby over 1m5f at Down Royal in June; maintained progress with a Galway festival win, defying a big burden in a lower handicap grade; stays well. |

Useful form on easy ground last autumn; Killarney maiden winner in early October and won a valuable restricted contest over 7f at Naas six days later; unplaced in a handicap on her seasonal debut; conditions race at Cork last month; well held by Drop Dead Gorgeous on running in a Group 3 fillies' event here last time |

No semblance of form so far this year, blinkers now replace the hood; down 11lb this term and drop in trip could bring improvement; 1lb wrong. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |

First reserve; 0-10 and hasn't built on promising handicap debut third at Killarney last August; latest run at Naas a bit better but still beaten over 10l; others appeal more. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 194y |

Best effort came when placed in Killarney (1m, gd) nursery off 68 last year; hard to recommend based on last three runs and first-time hood needs to be a game-changer. |

Only 4.5l behind Composing on debut and some decent efforts recently including at Down Royal last time in a lesser quality race than this; unable to win off 74 in a handicap here on penultimate (1m, yielding to soft); others more likely. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 26y |

Was only 4.5l behind Composing on debut but hasn't gone on from that run; solid 2nd in a Navan claimer over 1m but was beaten nearly 8l in a nursery last time; questions now. |

18th Sep 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |

Promising debut at the Curragh despite odds of 66-1 but disappointed when favourite at Leopardstown second time out; ran with credit from the front in a Navan maiden claimer (1m, yielding) since but doesn't look particularly well treated now handicapping and has stall 15 to negotiate here. |

Showed a spark when third at Down Royal in May (7f, good) but hasn't built on that twice since; hasn't fired on previous starts over 6f and rain would be another negative; others preferred. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |

Eight defeats include five handicaps but competitive in two of those (6f/7f) and should have a race in her off this mark; 1m perhaps too far last time. |
