1st 1 (13) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
10st 0lb |
One of two for trainer; lightly-raced 4yo didn't race at two; won twice in a five-race career for Dermot Weld last season; won a 1m Cork maiden and the Irish Cambridgeshire at the Curragh (1m, good to yielding) off 3lb lower after a three-month absence; way below that in final start at the Curragh; runs well fresh, so not out of it on stable debut. |
12/1 |

17th 14 (14) |
14th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Lightly raced 3yo won a soft-ground Cork maiden in April and returned from summer break for 22-1 win in 15-runner Irish Cambridgeshire here last month (2lb wrong), getting up closing strides despite rider briefly losing an iron; could have more to offer now upped in trip with ground remaining in his favour. |

Unexposed 3yo won Cork maiden in April but last of 11 in handicap here following month (7f) after slow start; had time off since so remains open to improvement but against some seasoned handicappers here and 2lb wrong. |

9st 12lb |
One of two for trainer; career-best form since November features two wins at Dundalk and a fourth-place finish in the Irish Lincolnshire; better again in the Spring Mile at Doncaster last time when a runner-up off 1lb lower (1m, good to soft); big chance with ground to suit. |

9st 1lb |
Led, was headed, but then rallied for a 0.5l third of 16 at Limerick (1m, yielding); 1-24 strike rate is not a great return but has placed on many occasions; should go well again off 1lb higher, but this ground may not suit. |
15/2 |

25th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 50y |

Sole success came in a Bellewstown maiden in April 2023; has run well in defeat at times and should strip fitter for her comeback run at Gowran 17-days ago; place chance if steps forward from that. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Returned from a 493-day absence over 7f at the Curragh when comfortably winning a 23-runner contest (soft to heavy); almost followed up off 15lb higher back there next time, when hampered before finishing strongly to lose out by a head; up another 3lb, but he's thriving and a definite chance if handling this better ground and step up in trip. |
4/1 |

2nd 11 (9) |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Winless from five starts for Emmet Mullins in 2024 but returned from a 493-day absence over C&D last month when pulverising the 23-runner field (soft to heavy); handicapper hasn't missed him, handing a whopping 15lb rise; but big chance of going in again with softer ground to suit. |
9/2 |
|
1st 19 (17) |
28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Ran five times for Emmet Mullins in 2024; attracted the attention of the stewards on handicap debut at Fairyhouse; several possible excuses were advanced (hampered at start, hit a ridge two furlongs out, lost both hind shoes); not a bad run at Dundalk on final start; missed all of last year; could be interesting on stable debut off a 7lb lower mark. |

Best runs last year came in a valuable Leopardstown handicap (1m1f, good to firm) when second in first-time cheekpieces, and when a close sixth at the Curragh next time in the same headgear; form regressed when headgear left off in two runs afterwards and it doesn't appear here. |

8st 9lb |
Added her fourth handicap win over 10.5f here in October off 63 (yielding); decent fourth in a higher grade next time at Leopardstown (1m4f, heavy) but disappointed at the Curragh on her final start of 2025; out of her depth on return at Cork; this more realistic but others preferred. |

Four handicap wins up to 1m2.5f but seems to stay this trip too; however, is rated only 74 so has a mountain to climb. |

Got back on the scoresheet stepped up to 1m2f at Naas and ran creditably in a 1m4f handicap at Leopardstown last time; looks vulnerable back to 1m off this mark. |

Just 2-22 but has taken the runner-up spot nine times; won on heavy at Leopardstown in October off 5lb lower; decent enough return at Cork (7f, soft) when a 6l sixth; Vega's Muse appears to be stable number one. |

Navan maiden winner over 5f on soft in October; returned this term in fine form, runner-up at the Curragh over 6f before going one better at Leopardstown over 7f (yielding to soft); struggled off revised mark at Gowran last time; needs to resume progress. |

Ended a long losing sequence with a 10.5f Cork win last month under this rider (good to yielding) off 5lb lower; didn't appear to appreciate drop to 7f back at Cork last time when staying on for seventh (short head behind Dark Viper); others more likely. |

Seven-time winner, last win at Dundalk in February 2024 off 3lb higher; some good efforts last year, including over this trip on the AW, and creditable run in the circumstances (slowly away) at the Curragh on latest under today's rider; one to consider. |

Added second turf win when keeping on well to comfortably land a 1m Leopardstown handicap on seasonal return (1m, good to yielding); follow-up attempt under a 7lb penalty perhaps came too quickly on softer ground; up 10lb compared to her win but not discounted. |

0-14 but has gone close at times; good run from a wide draw in a 7f Leopardstown (yielding to soft) contest, staying on well; another positive effort when third in a Limerick maiden in this headgear latest (1m, yielding); slowly away that day so effort can be marked up; not out of it. |
