1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ought to have coped much better with the good to soft turf when down the field at Ayr (6f) three weeks ago but ran on well for second behind a next-time-out winner over C&D on stable debut in July and has good claims if judged on that performance. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Hardy veteran has won fourteen races on turf, all on good and good to firm ground, but handles an ease; is 15lb lower than when winning at Musselburgh last year and didn't run badly at Bellewstown (5f, soft) on latest; could go well. |

11th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 3y |
9st 9lb |
Likeable veteran won for the fourteenth time at Musselburgh (5f, good) last April and is 13lb lower now; showed some spark when a 2l fourth at Dundalk on penultimate and was third over this C&D (soft) off 5lb higher in October; can't discount. |
14/1 |

8th 7 (5) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |

Attractive handicap mark, but veteran's 14 wins have come on turf; 0-11 on AW but his 2l fourth over 6f here last time is a reason for hope, as is the drop back to 5f now. |

Veteran is 5-62 on turf; fine run on seasonal return at Bellewstown (5f,soft) but well beaten over 6f at the Curragh latest; 1lb wrong and would probably prefer softer ground. |

Veteran is 5-61 on turf; was subsequently disqualified for the presence of a banned substance after coming home in front at Bellewstown in October (5f, soft); good effort on stable debut back from a break back at Bellewstown (5f, soft) last time when 1.25l behind Alnofoor. |

6-46 on turf; losing run stretches back to October 2024; poor form on AW last winter; shaped reasonably well at Listowel on first run for this stable; ran to roughly the same standard at Limerick; stablemate She's On The Ball is more appealing. |

8st 7lb |
Came back from over four years off last year; hit form this term, winning at this venue (6f) and Bellewstown (5f) before a fine third at Curragh; not as effective on good ground at Fairyhouse; any significant easing would help his chance. |

Unbeaten in four runs at Sligo, most recently last month (third has won since) at 6.5f; 4lb rise okay but record at this track relatively underwhelming so needs to improve that. |

1st 6 (4) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 61y |

Unbeaten in three runs at Sligo and going for three-in-a-row in this race, the last two coming from stall 16; Hayes is elsewhere today, but quite the substitute to have in the saddle and his comeback run was fine. |

Won a Bellewstown handicap in October (5f, soft) off 2lb higher; running well in defeat this season, not least when runner-up behind her reopposing stablemate Dandy Land over C&D last time (good); 1.25l to find with that rival but better off at the weights; suited by softer. |
