16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Likeable 3yo; won AW maiden last year; good fourth in hot Naas handicap over 1m before making most to beat in-form rival over 1m1f on probably unsuitably soft ground here; had that rival a little further back when fourth in 1m1f premier handicap at the Curragh, where missing a beat at the start proved costly in a race where the leaders didn't come back; takes on older horses for the first time. |

Won a 1m AW maiden in October on last of three juvenile outings; promising seasonal return in 1m Naas premier handicap in late April, staying on well in closing stages, beaten around one length in fourth behind Bobby McGee; saw out this trip when beating excellent yardstick Monvoe at Leopardstown; extra 9lb may anchor him. |

Off the mark in 1m AW maiden in October on last of three juvenile outings; very promising seasonal return in 1m Naas premier handicap in late April, staying on well in closing stages when beaten 1l into fourth (Son Of Beauty 2.75l away fifth); big player given normal improvement and longer trip. |

Enjoying a good season with wins in handicap at Cork (1m, soft) in May and a rated race at Leopardstown (1m, good) last month; beat Glitter And Glory by half a length the last day and 5lb worse off here, so may not uphold that form. |

Best effort in two runs last year a modest 8.5l fourth of 14 at Dundalk (1m); weakened in the closing stages on seasonal return at Navan (1m2f, heavy); a drying track could help his cause, as could the first-time tongue tie; chance. |

Seventh in barrier trial at Naas last year; promise in a couple of AW maidens over 7f and 1m in the autumn; off since and much more needed on turf debut, but the booking of Oisin Murphy catches the eye (2-5 when riding for this stable in Britain and Ireland); check the market. |

Flopped when 3-1 for seasonal/handicap debut at Sligo in May; it was probably soft ground, rather than this trip, which proved his undoing because (having been gelded and given a break) he ran much better over 1m3f at Killarney on Monday; looked slow but kept plugging away, and gets another change of headgear now. |

Only 3-1 for handicap debut at Sligo in May; ran poorly but maybe soft ground was to blame; gelded since and change of headgear; with the stable so powerful in the 3yo category, plenty will afford him another chance. |

Stable is dynamite in 3yo handicaps, even when maiden form is moderate, as is the case with this colt; close relation to 1m2f winner; headgear added for handicap debut and starts off from a very workable mark. |
