27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Won a maiden at this venue on debut last October; next two races were highly ambitious, in the Royal Bond and the Supreme Novices'; struggled in a conditions race at Cork last time; tongue-tie on now. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 70y |
11st 7lb |
Was impressive when winning on debut at Wexford but has come up short in graded company twice since; capable of better but rated 126 so a lot to find at these weights and third place probably the best he can hope for. |

11st 7lb |
Raced only twice (both over 2m) and may do better still but he's bottom of this pack on bare figures and needs his sights lowering; last of seven finishers in the Fairyhouse Grade 2 won by Koktail Brut when attempting to follow up a Wexford success that came at the chief expense of a rival who remains a longstanding maiden. |

11st 10lb |
Won a handicap at the Galway festival in 2023 and a Punchestown novice chase in December 2024; ran only twice last season; higher rated as a chaser; bright display when third in a conditions hurdle at Wexford in May; could go well here. |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Won a Punchestown novice chase in December 2024; ran only twice last season; now set for a first hurdles start since jumping badly at Listowel in September 2023; had previously produced a career-best when winning a handicap at the Galway festival; hard to be confident about his prospects. |

Won a 2m Punchestown beginners' on second start in this sphere last year; was running well in a 2m4f Grade 3 at the same track when falling next time; questions having not been seen since. |

8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 9lb |
Limited Flat maiden but doing better over hurdles and after winning his maiden at Down Royal he ran well at the weights in a rated hurdle at Wexford; has form claims for sure but this softer ground might not be preferable, especially over this longer trip. |
5/2 |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
10st 10lb |
A 69-rated Flat maiden; struggled to make an impression in juvenile hurdles last winter and was a rank outsider in the Triumph; came good in a maiden at Down Royal early this month; won readily and left an impression that he can continue on the upgrade on summer ground. |

A 69-rated Flat maiden; the best of four hurdle runs when beaten 15l in a Naas Listed juvenile event; beaten a long way in the Triumph Hurdle since; can go well but others look stronger. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
10st 11lb |
Winner of a 2m2f Cork novice event on good ground in May, not so good in Wexford conditions event later same month; seemingly has a bit to do back in handicap company off this sort of mark. |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
10st 13lb |
Twice third in bumpers; third on handicap hurdle debut at Punchestown (2m5f, soft to heavy) in January; beaten a lot farther by the same winner when mid-field in a festival handicap at the same venue; suited by drop in trip and better ground when winning a novice event at Cork early this month; more on his plate here. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 55y |
11st 12lb |
Recent efforts over hurdles a little underwhelming but earned a mark of 84 after three good runs in Flat maidens last year, including when third in this race; major player if able to run up to that form. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
11st 6lb |
Ballinrobe maiden hurdle winner last August; shaped with promise at big odds in hot handicap at Punchestown on penultimate and 4lb lower now but needs to bounce back from poor novice hurdle effort at Wexford 18 days ago. |
14/1 |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Winning hurdler; fair maiden on the Flat; useful form in small-field hurdle races in the first half of last season; should improve from a run in a handicap at the Punchestown festival; was one of the outsiders then, and made some late headway, plenty of horses behind him. |

11st 9lb |
Grade 2 bumper winner at Leopardstown the season before last, and third in the Grade 1 Champion Bumper at Punchestown; got off the mark over hurdles on fourth start at Fairyhouse; raced too keenly and paid the price when fading late into fifth in a novice contest at the Punchestown festival; capable of being in the mix in this company. |

Grade 2 bumper winner last year was then third in the Grade 1 Champion Bumper at this meeting; got off the mark over hurdles on fourth start at Fairyhouse last time; looks a major player. |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 100y |

Top bumper performer; won Leopardstown Grade 2 (2m, soft) in February last year; good third behind Bambino Fever at the Punchestown festival next time; beaten 9l by Koktail Brut (now rated 139) at Punchestown on hurdling debut when Splendid Fellow was a remote third; has failed to match that form in outings at Navan and Naas. |
