Has had a busy time since sent hurdling last August; three wins include two over 2m at this venue, including in a handicap with this rider aboard; form has been uneven; bounced back from a dismal Fairyhouse run when second at Navan, again for this rider. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
1m2f French Flat winner who did well for former Irish connections, in victory and defeat over hurdles; even better when winning comfortably on his stable debut at Sandown (soft) and it was only three days later he finished well held under a penalty (same mark here) in the Fred Winter, though that run was better than it looks on paper; this is his first handicap against older opposition and he's very much in the mix. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
1m2f French Flat winner; won a maiden hurdle (yielding) in Ireland in October and continued his progress with seconds this winter in a Listed race and Punchestown handicap; even better when winning comfortably on his stable debut at Sandown on Saturday (soft), picking up the penalty that secured his place here; connections strike while the iron is hot and he merits attention, for all that Harry Cobden was aboard at the weekend but not now. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 3 |

French Flat winner who scored on hurdle debut at Gowran Park (2m, yielding) in October and has continued to run well, finishing a clear second in a 4yo handicap at Punchestown (2m, heavy) in January on final outing for Ross O'Sullivan; could have a part to play on stable debut. |

21st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Modest hurdle form in Ireland; first two Flat runs (both C&D) for new yard were promising, notably his second outing where he stayed on nicely from well back (rider reported he would appreciate a more galloping track); now has his first go in handicaps and interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Ex-Irish gelding who started huge prices for a couple of starts over 8.7f round Wolverhampton in early summer; not without hope on either occasion, latterly behind Hozam, but handicaps may be his time to shine. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |
11st 9lb |
4yo comes here on a hat-trick, following wins in 2m3f Kilbeggan maiden hurdle and on chase debut earlier this month when made plenty of use of for ready success in 2m6f Tramore beginners' (good), jumping soundly in the main; tougher task awaits here on handicap debut but respected. |

13th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 0lb |
Rated 108 over hurdles; gained a first success at the 12th attempt over hurdles in a weak Kilbeggan maiden hurdle last time (2m3f, good); he's in good form for his chasing debut but others are more appealing. |
9/2 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |

Now 0-11 over hurdles but twice placed in Bellewstown maidens, including early this month after forcing much of pace; has his chance in what appears a weak maiden. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
With Denis Hogan when winning a Tramore maiden (2m) in April; followed up on Flat on debut for this trainer and has since been runner-up twice on Flat and a good third of 12 in Class 2 handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (2m1f, good); unraced beyond that but no way is he ruled out. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
With Denis Gerard Hogan when justifying favouritism in a Tramore maiden (2m, good to yielding) in April; joined this trainer the following month for £26,000 and has been kept ticking over on the Flat (form figures 122); noteworthy he's pitched into a Class 2 for GB handicap hurdle debut; interesting. |

10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Signed off in Ireland with a maiden hurdle win; narrowly won over 1m4f at Kempton (AW) on yard debut before chasing home a clearcut winner over C&D; same mark here and could be vulnerable. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Useful Flat winner for Joseph O'Brien; 0-4 over hurdles for that yard but came good on stable debut (same ownership) with a narrow win over 2m here last month (good to soft); he would have won easier but for a late mistake; there are some stamina concerns over quite this far. |
4/1 |

1st 12 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Useful Flat winner at the start of his career but failed to progress in juvenile hurdles last season after a promising start; also well held back on the Flat at the Curragh six weeks ago (final start for Joseph O'Brien); more than capable of making his presence felt in a race like this if putting his best foot forward but starts out for a new yard (same owners) with a point to prove. |
7/2 |
|
14th 7 (14) |
3rd Apr 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Looked potentially smart when landing C&D maiden in November 2024; didn't reach heights expected in four starts in Group, conditions and handicap company last season but had a couple of good runs over hurdles in recent months; acts on soft and big-field handicap could be right up his street. |
