16th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 174y |
10st 10lb |
Sligo hurdles specialist with three wins there last year and twice placed there this season; fell at the last at Kilbeggan on latest; struggled on sole Flat outing at Sligo in May; hard to assess. |

Sligo specialist; three wins there last year and twice placed there this season; first-time blinkers seemed to help when third over 3m2f last time, with Keep Em Quite and Ilbdare behind. |

28th Sep 2026 Good 3m 0f 25y |
10st 9lb |
Dual winner of 3m2f handicap hurdles at the trainer's home track; stayed on well from a long way back when splitting Smallcraftwarning and Adaliz at Kilbeggan; should go well but would probably appreciate and even greater stamina test. |
13/2 |

3rd 12 |
4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 200y |
11st 1lb |
Best form has come at Sligo where he's won twice over 3m2f; poor run there latest when long way behind Cornmarket and Keep Em Quite; top claimer booked. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 168y |
11st 5lb |
A dual C&D winner, his trainer's local track; last year's form also included a second placing behind Cornmarket over C&D; probably needed the run here in May, and was much improved when winning in June; up 5lb for that; deserves respect. |

12th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 172y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time winner over hurdles, the latest at Clonmel last November off 3lb lower (3m, soft); pulled up on latest but has run well here before so could rebound; place shout. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 15y |
11st 2lb |
Won at Clonmel in November off 3lb lower; bounced back to form after three poor runs with a 5l third of 10 over C&D 17 days ago (1.5l behind Toor Khov); not guaranteed to back that effort up but place claims at least if he does. |

30th Sep 2026 Good 3m 1f 182y |
10st 11lb |
Won over hurdles at Clonmel last season before losing all form; couple of encouraging Kilbeggan efforts this term, but needs to improve on what he's shown in recent starts. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 6f 97y |

Completely out of form earler in the year; benefitted from a break with a couple of decent efforts over hurdles and fences at Kilbeggan but never involved over 3m2f at Sligo last time. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Just one win in 24, and Ffos Las near-miss on second outing for current handler likely owed something to the drop to 0-105 company (3m, heavy); limitations exposed again since and this is tougher still. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland where she was effective on good ground; conditions were heavy when going close at Ffos Las a month ago (3m) and she travelled strongly deep into that race; possibilities off 4lb higher. |
4/1 |

2nd 5 |
1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland, winning just the once; made a quiet start for this yard at Chepstow but in a Class 3 handicap over 2m3f and this is easier; should handle the ground and has form over this far. |

10st 8lb |
Three-time winner but nothing since March 2024 when he won a heavy ground handicap chase at Limerick off 94 (3m1f); wasn't shaping like a winner in waiting towards the end of last season; needs to find his form but perhaps the break has done him good. |

Front-running mare won at Sligo last year, her only strike in 29 starts over hurdles; second to a well-treated winner at Wexford in August; disappointing back at Sligo last time. |
14/1 |

19th Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 168y |
10st 11lb |
1-28 over hurdles, that sole win was achieved in this race last year; struggled here last month in a race in which Cornmarket was second; much more like it when chasing home easy winner Strong Contender at Wexford; could go close now |
8/1 |

2nd 6 |
7th Aug 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |

11yo is 1-27 over hurdles, the win coming at Sligo in August last year off 4lb higher (3m2f, good); okay fifth on seasonal return at Kilbeggan in June (3m1f, good to yielding) but was tailed off at Sligo last time (3m2f, good); others preferred. |

26th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 76y |
10st 8lb |
Now 0-10 over hurdles but ran well before fading into third at Navan in December (3m1f, soft to heavy); failed to back that up when tailed off at Ayr; this trip looks a bit short; cheekpieces. |
12/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 1f 80y |
10st 9lb |
Showed some ability in bumpers last year without winning; hasn't really kicked on over hurdles but was keeping on over 2m7f at Killarney last time; this trip should suit and can be a player. |
4/1 |
