Last of three Flat wins for Jessica Harrington was off 84 last summer; was having her eighth hurdles start when making the breakthrough in a Wexford handicap in May; failed to back that up at Listowel. |

11st 12lb |
Latest of three Flat wins for Jessica Harrington was off 84 last summer; improved of late over hurdles; mild promise when sixth at Bellewstown and then 22-1, dropped in grade to beat geldings at Wexford; needs proper good ground and trainer admits she's unpredictable. |

One of two for trainer; three-time Flat winner for Jessica Harrington on good/good to firm; moderate hurdles form for new yard, but her sixth of ten at Bellewstown last time was not her worst effort; in this lower grade for first time. |

Out of sorts for his handicap hurdling debut at Punchestown in October when last seen over timber but has previously finished runner-up in a Tramore maiden hurdle (2m1f, good); Flat return at Limerick when third was encouraging for his chances here. |

Consistent and holding form well enough in handicaps; beaten around 6l off this mark the last twice, at Down Royal (2m4f, good) and Wexford (2m1f, gd-yld) when wearing first-time cheekpieces (retained); step back up to this trip should suit; in the mix again. |

16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |

One of two for trainer; maiden has been consistent in handicaps; runner-up at Tramore off this mark in November (2m5f, soft); below that when a beaten favourite at Down Royal next time (2m4f, yielding), finishing a distant third; another good effort when fourth back there last time; maybe the cheekpieces can get a bit more from him. |

Maiden seemed to appreciate the step up to 22.5f (good) at Clonmel last time when keeping on for a 9.25l third; eased 1lb, but not sure whether the drop back in trip here will suit. |

Regressive Flat maiden didn't show much in her opening hurdle runs but has started to show small signs of life recently; 12l sixth in a Limerick mares' maiden hurdle (2m, soft) before being beaten 10.5l at Wexford on handicap debut; more needed in first-time tongue tie. |

Ought to be interesting on account of having beaten Kazansky (now a Grade 2 novice hurdle winner and Grade 1 runner-up) in a maiden at Lisronagh last March; however, he has failed to show any significant promise in a bumper and two maiden hurdles. |

10lb higher than for his Perth win last June (2m, good), after which he ran well on the Flat at Galway; back from 289 days off when beaten about 12l at Wexford and that could have been needed; on a tough mark, though. |

Returned from 181-day absence at Perth (2m, good) in June last year to get off the mark over hurdles with an easy victory off 95 when a well-backed 15-8 favourite; posted a fine third off top weight on the Flat at the Galway festival when last seen; big player but market will be crucial after his absence. |

Flat winner was successful over hurdles at Limerick in December 2024 off 7lb higher; moderate recent form until a change of tactics almost saw him make all at Tramore (2m1f, good to yielding) when headed late home in this headgear combination; could go one better if adopting the same tactics. |
