22nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Consistent sort who got off the mark up in distance at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) in February and has found one too good on all three occasions since, latest at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last month in first-time cheekpieces (retained); should be thereabouts. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Off the mark at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) in his third handicap, before two creditable efforts when finding one too good; the step up trip could eke out further progress, especially if the cheekpieces prove a positive addition. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |

Off the mark at the third attempt in handicaps over C&D (good to soft) last month and 8l second to thriving winner at Sedgefield (2m4f, soft) subsequently; this unexposed 5yo is in good hands to continue to progress. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Ex-Irish; was suited by drying ground, only reeled-in late at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft; 18-1; headgear absent) a month ago; competes from the same mark but with Dominic Hislop claiming a useful 10lb allowance; ticks plenty of boxes on just his third start for this trainer. |

Made the frame a few times on good ground for previous yard; heavy going provides an excuse for lesser effort on debut for new stable; open to progress now handicapping. |

17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Displayed clear promise on all three hurdling starts in the spring, perhaps most notably when third of 12 at Sligo (2m4f, good) on second occasion; moves up in trip here; features prominently in calculations. |

10st 10lb |
Had jumping issues during her chase spell and proved suited by the return to hurdles in C&D contest (good to soft) last time, just holding on from Lizzie Luna who might have won but for coming off a true line; may remain competitive. |
4/1 |

3rd 5 |
21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who might well have made a winning chase debut here (2m4f, good) in May, had she not clouted the last two fences; again made jumping errors when well behind Heaven Smart over that trip last month but can pose a potent threat if she gets into a better rhythm today. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |

0-5 over hurdles but made promising start to chasing career when third over C&D (good) in May; might well have won that race had she not clouted the last two fences, and commands respect off the same mark today. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Went very close when upped to 3m at Musselburgh (good to soft) in December; also effective on soft ground; only fourth of eight at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) since and could do with settling better but not ruled out. |

Gained sole win at Musselburgh (2m4f) and nearly doubled her tally, beaten a whisker by Reflection Of You having edged left, in C&D event (good to soft; first 3m attempt) latest start; in the mix, especially if keeping a straighter line. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 11lb |
Decent runs in defeat over autumn/winter, finishing fourth here (3m1f, good to yielding) and third at Punchestown (3m, heavy); less than fluent jumping at Musselburgh when fifth in February (3m, good to soft); stayed on for a distant third at Clonmel last time (3m, heavy); not out of it and this better ground may help. |

Unplaced at Musselburgh last time; place chance on his previous third to today's rival Milanaway over this trip at Punchestown; blinkered for the first time. |

Irish maiden who has shown positive signs since wearing cheekpieces, making the frame over 3m at Down Royal and Punchestown; may take another step forward in the retained headgear; interesting. |

12st 0lb |
Won at Musselburgh (2m7f, soft) in December and returned to form at Sedgefield (2m5f, good) a fortnight ago, when he was narrowly in front when falling two out; won over hurdles here last May and he's on the shortlist. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |

He's failed to shine on his three starts since his chase win at Musselburgh in December, last time tailed off over hurdles here; however, he won three times last year, including over hurdles here, and is not written off. |

Won the 2m6f handicap on this card 12 months ago and returned to form with a 2l success over that same trip on Monday (following a wind operation); did that comfortably and must have every chance under a penalty. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |

Won this race in 2025 (good ground) and followed up over C&D (good to soft) two days later; suffered dip in form afterwards but shaped quite well before weakening into sixth in competitive series final at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) in March and returns to this track on an attractive mark; had another wind op last month (his fourth); good chance. |

Defied a higher mark for previous yard but holds poor claims on his form (hurdles/fences) for new stable; enough to prove back up in distance. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 4 |

Out of sorts on both runs over hurdles for this stable this season, but his previous form over fences last season entitles him to respect if benefiting for recent wind surgery. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Tried chasing last season and signed off on a low note back over hurdles; what heightens interest is his record at this meeting when fresh, having won this two years ago and been beaten a head in the earlier 2m4f handicap last season; slightly lower in the weights this time; respected. |
