Dual winner over hurdles, landed handicap 29 days ago off 102 decisively by 5.5l; two runs over fences, distant fourth in good beginners' chase at Thurles before runner-up in Listed mares company, albeit well held; big run anticipated back up in trip. |

Dual hurdle winner got off the mark over fences in a Kilbeggan handicap in May; solid efforts over hurdles and fences since; saddle slipped early so Galway run last time is forgiven; has 11lb to find on ratings with Le Coq Hardi. |

Three wins over hurdles; fair bit of experience over fences and was second of 16 in C&D handicap in April; had In The Trenches behind when third to a smart mare at Kilbeggan and latest hurdling third was fine; new rider aboard. |

11st 12lb |
5lb lower when winning a handicap hurdle in March; enjoys good ground and ran well for a long way on recent chase debut at Kilbeggan (2m3f, yielding); this trip likely suits him better and has possibilities in the new headgear. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |

Sole win came in 2m6f handicap hurdle at Downpatrick in March, decent effort off 5lb higher at Clonmel next time before unseating after three out 16 days ago at Punchestown; enjoys good ground and being patiently ridden; chase debut; has the hurdle rating to be on the shortlist. |

11st 12lb |
Finally made the breakthrough in a Downpatrick maiden hurdle in June (2m3f, good) at the 35th attempt, having placed on numerous occasions; didn't bring that momentum to a beginners' chase at Wexford last time when pulled up after he made a bad mistake at the first and lost his action; overall record is off-putting. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |

Long-standing maiden finally got it done when winning readily over hurdles last month; second in three of 13 chase starts, and some fair runs over fences without being placed in April/May; these types can kick on once they get their heads in front, and Donoghue prefers him to Sophia Rose. |

11st 12lb |
Ex-pointer; lightly raced maiden under rules; fair run when eighth of 14 in a Kilbeggan beginners' chase in May (2m4f, good) and ran to a similar level of form in a maiden hurdle last time (2m3f, good to yielding); interesting on handicap debut. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 20y |

Runner-up in two maiden hurdles this year, although the value of the form is questionable; well beaten over fences on his last two starts, prominent before weakening from two out at this venue last time; definite chance in a race of this standard |

Runner-up in two maiden hurdles this year, the form of which is questionable; ran okay when fifth on chase debut at Tramore 25 days ago, 4.75l behind Drop A Threat; needs a lot more but lightly raced. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |

Point winner whose sole win in 23 starts under rules came in a Down Royal maiden hurdle last May; not shown much this year until chase debut at Tramore last time, falling two out when still in contention (Drop A Threat fourth); should build on that. |

A lot of Gigginstown's have been taking flight from Mullins' yard lately, and this modest performer will probably be on his way to Doncaster sales, rather than Elliott's, before long; did plug away over 2m2f when sixth of 20 here on Tuesday. |

Has shown promise at this venue on his last three starts; fourth in a claimer on final start for previous yard; well backed when third in a higher-grade handicap than this on stable debut, when wrong at the weights; second here 13 days ago; fair chance he can prevail in a rematch with third-placed Georginas Jet. |

Sligo maiden hurdle winner last year (2m2f, good); fine effort when beaten 9.5l into third by the smart I'll Sort That at Galway after; didn't make it past the first on chase debut at Clonmel 164 days ago; each-way chance. |
