Impressive winner of a Ballinrobe bumper for Andrew Slattery a year ago; won a Punchestown maiden hurdle last October on stable debut before finishing fourth in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 novice; third in a conditions event at the Punchestown festival; outstayed by an emphatic winner on handicap debut in a 2m4f contest at Kilbeggan. |

Impressive winner of a Ballinrobe bumper for Andrew Slattery and moved to this yard after; won a Punchestown maiden hurdle last October before finishing fourth in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 novice; third in a conditions event at the Punchestown festival; relatively unexposed, plenty of weight for handicap debut. |

Impressive winner of a Ballinrobe bumper on debut last year for Andrew Slattery and moved to this yard after; won a C&D maiden hurdle in October before finishing fourth to in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 novice; hood added after a break and seems yard's first-string so a contender. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 88y |
11st 12lb |
An 80-rated Flat winner ran fine races in his first three hurdle attempts last autumn but was poor in a hood at this track when last seen; however, has a chance if restored to best on return; first-string for a yard that had a Punchestown winner. |

81-rated Flat horse has been placed on latest three of four attempts hurdling, most recently chasing home a 6l winner at Punchestown; tried hooded now and place claims again, more needed to play a major role in a stronger maiden. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 110y |
11st 1lb |
Point-to-point, bumper and maiden hurdle winner; highly tried to no avail the last twice in a Grade 2 novice at Navan and in a Grade 1 novice at Naas (both 2m4f on soft and heavy); makes handicap debut now and preferred by Kennedy, but others appeal more. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 95y |

Wide-margin point winner who got off the mark immediately under rules when winning a Leopardstown bumper last Christmas (yielding); likely didn't handle soft-heavy conditions when tailed off in a Fairyhouse bumper in April; can do better now. |

Just 1m4f AW maiden win to his name but arrives on the back of two fine runs on turf, had the run of the race when pipped over 1m6f at Fairyhouse (rated race) and again made plenty of use of when third in 1m3f Naas handicap early this month; definite claims back up in trip. |

Bumper winner at last year's festival on yielding ground; off the mark over hurdles at fourth attempt when dropped back to 2m in a four-runner Leopardstown novice early last month, outpacing odds-on favourite Grey Jude from the last; beat all bar the unconsidered Sept Etoile in a 3m handicap at Fairyhouse; strong chance. |

Punchestown festival bumper (yielding) winner last term, got off the mark over hurdles at fourth attempt when dropped back to 2m in 4-runner Leopardstown novice last month, outpacing odds-on favourite from last (heavy); type to keep improving, stays at least 2m5f; one to consider on handicap debut. |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 0y |

Punchestown festival bumper (yielding) winner last term has coped with softer conditions on latest two runs in 2m5f maiden hurdles, hampered by winner run-in when clear second at same venue and at Thurles last month only tired late on when third (conceding 8lb to first two); much better suited at the weights here an drops in trip. |

Nine-race maiden but went close when beaten a head at Stratford on stable debut for Dan Skelton, his first attempt at 2m6f; was well backed and saw the trip out strongly, offering encouragement he'll stay this slightly longer distance; up 4lb but remains a leading contender. |
