4th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 40y |
11st 7lb |
Fifth behind Malbay Madness at Downpatrick last month; should be sharper for the run, his first since signing off a good spell of form with a narrow Galway win last autumn. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
11st 8lb |
Gained third win over timber by a nose when last seen at Galway in October (2m, gd-yld); raised 6lb for that; will need to be ready to rock after 231-day break off career high mark (has won when fresh before). |

11st 12lb |
Flat winner; took his second hurdle race when scoring at Tipperary in July; not a bad Wexford run after, poor at Killarney on next start; addition of tongue-tie seemed to have a positive effect when second at Fairyhouse just over two weeks ago; 5lb claimer rode last Sunday's Munster National winner. |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 10y |
11st 3lb |
Dual-winning hurdler has been super consistent generally; runner-up twice this season, at Galway (2m, good to yielding) and in a Listed event here (2m4f, soft to heavy); rewarded with a win at Leopardstown over Christmas off 115 (2m5f, good to yielding); had a rare blip off his revised mark at Navan (2m4f, soft to heavy) last time when beaten 16l; place chance if bouncing back |

17th Jan 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 4f 40y |
11st 2lb |
Got his first hurdles win at Listowel in September 2024 (2m2f, soft) and has been remarkably consistent in his runs since, placing in five of his seven subsequent starts before gaining another deserved success at Leopardstown last time by a nose to Hgranca De Thaix (2m4f, good to yielding); up 6lb but he always acquits himself well. |

26th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 11y |

2m4f Listowel festival winner last year on handicap debut last year; not far off his best form when placed in races at Limerick (2m) and Naas (2m3f) on his final two starts before a summer break; could make his presence felt if fit and ready now. |

Beaten under 7l in two of his handicaps and off a lower mark now, so if the tongue-tie can trigger a revival, he could run well. |

Maiden ran well at Galway and Limerick in final two runs of 2025 but hasn't matched those efforts the last twice; beaten 19l when sixth at Cork latest; new hood needs to eke out more. |

10st 10lb |
Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott in April 2024; no joy since but latest Galway fifth (2m, gd-yld) in October his best since joining this yard; dropped 3lb and sports a tongue-tie for return; could run into a place if fit. |

11st 11lb |
Sole hurdles win came over a year ago at Clonmel (2m4f) off 111; tried several times in claiming hurdles this year, notably C&D second in May, reportedly found to have blood in nostrils last month when just fair fifth in Downpatrick handicap; has to be treated with some caution but down to a nice mark. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |

Sole win over hurdles came in a Clonmel handicap last June off 111; has slumped in the ratings and failed to exploit her reduced mark (97) when fifth at Clonmel 13 days ago; however, he is closely matched with Redwood Queen on running in a claimer at Tramore last month. |

Progressive handicap hurdler last season took his mark to 125 after wins over 2m4f at Navan and Fairyhouse (heavy); 2m trip inadequate here on final start in March; upped in trip for chase debut and could go well if taking to fences. |

Maiden was beaten 5l by today's rival Global Skies at Clonmel last time, his best handicap run; raised 2lb for that and, if he has progressed since, can run respectably again. |
