11st 4lb |
Dual-purpose maiden improved hugely on previous form when runner-up in a Downpatrick 2m6f maiden hurdle; needs to show that wasn't a fluke but can be involved again if repeating that. |

Some sign of ability on the Flat at up to 1m4f; 80-1 when tailed off in a maiden at Clonmel where his jumping lacked any fluency. |

8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 1f 24y |
10st 6lb |
Point-to-point winner yet to score under Rules but placed on multiple occasions, including when a good second on final start for Henry De Bromhead at Fairyhouse in April (24.5f, yld-sft); just 1lb higher now and can't be discounted on first start for new stable. |
8/1 |

2nd 14 |
6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
10st 12lb |
Point-to-point winner yet to get his head in front under rules; promise in both chase starts and weighted to close the 7.75l gap to Joyau De Thaix who won the beginners' chase he contested at Leopardstown last time. |
10/1 |

3rd 7 |
3rd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |
11st 12lb |
Point winner in 2022; still a maiden under rules; runner-up in final three starts last season (including over fences at Kilbeggan); fair seasonal debut over a trip short of his best at Navan in November (2m, soft to heavy); did well to take third over 2m4f at the same venue after running keenly; down the field on latest. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 90y |
10st 3lb |
Has shown improved form in her three maiden hurdle runs this season, two of them over C&D on good; third here and at Ballinrobe before a 10.5l sixth of 16 here last time; needs to find more on handicap bow. |
14/1 |

9th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 157y |
11st 5lb |
Has shown improved form to take third in maidens here and at Ballinrobe; perhaps a little more is needed to make the frame here. |
10/1 |
Verdict
Most appealing are Speculateur and KILLANEY KING with preference given to the latter because he is likely to be better value in the market, and Speculateur has failed to win as favourite in two hurdle outings. He perhaps dislikes this ground given his point win came on better. Killaney King returns to maiden hurdle company, having run decent races in a couple of handicaps. Always Scoring and Acheron are worth a market check. [Denis Harney]
