7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 160y |
10st 9lb |
Best effort over hurdles came on penultimate at Kilbeggan but was still beaten over 7l into fourth of 13; didn't build on that run at Killarney last time; eased another 1lb and minor place chance on best form but needs more to win. |
12/1 |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 85y |

Best effort yet on return from 131 days off at Kilbeggan (17.5f, gd-yld) when a 7.75l fourth of 13; should strip fitter now, eased 1lb and pedigree suggests that this trip might suit; not discounted. |

10st 13lb |
Lightly raced 5yo was who runner-up in his final handicap over hurdles (2m1f; 2lb lower); sent off favourite for chase debut off this mark at Downpatrick and ran okay to be beaten 13l into third having jumped deliberately; if sharper for that experience he can go well. |

About to challenge when carried out at second-last here over 2m4f in May (soft) before just denied in similar contest in July (good); last month's Clonmel comeback run should have brought him on so could well get in the mix if staying this longer trip. |

Best form has been here in testing conditions, winning over this trip last Christmas and good second over 2m7f in March; last month's Roscommon comeback was over an inadequate trip, much more expected of here but may not get the amount of rain he wants. |

Lightly raced 7yo who failed to achieve much in Ireland and changed hands for 1,400gns in January; however, her new trainer can do well with stable-switchers and it will be no surprise to see a good run; watch the betting. |

Attracted support at Down Royal in early May, let down by his jumping; much more like it when second in a 19-runner contest at Punchestown nine days later; failed to build on that at this venue next time, this longer trip may suit him better. |
