8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 4lb |
His second run back from an absence when breezing home at odds-on in a 2m soft-ground maiden at Tramore; he no doubt has plenty more to offer; this longer trip should be up his street. |

Lightly raced 6yo showed definite ability in bumpers for Dermot McLoughlin, notably in decent Navan contest (soft-to-heavy); returned from over year's absence for current yard last month when hooded in 2m Clonmel maiden hurdle, staying on third behind an odds-on shot (soft); hood left off here but rates a major contender. |

Beaten favourite on racecourse bow when runner-up to Marlacoo at Down Royal May 2024; failed to build on that next time but fared better when beaten 7.5l into fifth at Navan 410 days ago in a good bumper won by Copacabana; first-time hood on hurdles debut and horses from this yard typically improve for obstacles. |

In decent form over hurdles lately; poor last Flat start but is rated 86 in that sphere. |

Four-time Flat winner; useful maiden hurdle form including when a staying third in a 2m maiden hurdle at Galway last week; this trip should suit and he probably does not have to improve to land this. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 175y |

Four Flat wins and is rated 89 in that sphere; was never involved in the Connacht Hotel handicap here five days ago; best hurdle run when second at Killarney last time, a mistake at the last costing him; should be in the mix. |

Attracted attention of Stewards over C&D in May before much-improved showing when favourite at Sligo last month, every chance when second over 2m5f (good); back in trip here and has to be on the shortlist. |

4yo filly never landed a blow on recent handicap debut at Sligo but did make late headway; tongue-tied now added and no surprise if she had more to offer here. |

First reserve; poor in opening runs over hurdles this year and well beaten on the Flat in a 1m4f claimer here and a 1m7f handicap at Leopardstown, so others preferred; the visor is new as is this lower grade. |

Showed little in four runs for Ger Lyons and similar story on the Flat and over hurdles for this stable; rating of 66 could flatter him; hard to make a case for. |

Improved significantly on better ground and reportedly settled better when getting up late to land 2m2f Sligo maiden in June; didn't land a meaningful blow on handicap debut at Galway a week ago, however, so lots more needed. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 130y |
11st 12lb |
Improved significantly on better ground and reportedly settled better when getting up late to land a Sligo maiden hurdle last month; might benefit from a longer trip but probably still capable of improvement, and the stable has been known to come alive at this meeting. |

Too keen and tailed off in both bumpers; improved when hooded on hurdles debut at Wexford, although again somewhat headstrong; failed to build on that at Tramore, faded after a bad blunder three out. |

Dual Flat winner was a good second of 15 on hurdles bow at Downpatrick in September (2m2f, yielding) and would have made the winner work for it if not unseating his rider at the last at Tramore in April (2m, soft); of concern is that the worst of his three hurdle runs came over C&D in October when a 21l sixth of 13 but could go well; well beaten on Flat when last seen. |

Front-runner placed on five of 7 attempts hurdling, notably touched off in Gowran novice handicap and again twice in similar Fairyhouse contests, latest early this month; should make a bold bid back in maiden company on a track which suits his style of running. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |

0-7; disappointing favourite at Tramore last time but has had a break since then and his previous seconds in 2m handicaps (in a tongue-tie) need respecting; each-way claims with tongue-tie back on. |
