Useful form in 2024, winning over a mile at Punchestown and Dundalk; failed to prosper last year and lots to find on two efforts this term; tries this longer trip again. |

Useful form in 2024, winning over this trip at Punchestown and Dundalk; failed to prosper last year; not a bad 7f run here on seasonal debut and may improve over the extra furlong. |

Veteran has done a bit of everything and recorded his ninth win when easily scoring over 1m6f at Sligo last time (yielding to soft), benefitting from a truly-run race; up 8lb but in the mix. |

Dual-purpose maiden; 0-8 on the Flat and yet to trouble the judge; well beaten on debut for this yard at Navan; others appeal more. |

0-8 and yet to trouble the judge but has shown glimmers of ability; hinted more than once last season that he needed further than 1m2f but weakened over that trip on return at Navan last month; blinkers now go on, but this trip is a query. |
8/1 |

11st 10lb |
AW winner; fifth behind subsequent chase Grade 1 winner Koktail Divin in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown (2m4f, yielding); flattered by that detail; pulled up in a Bellewstown maiden hurdle last week; has plenty of weight, hard to fancy. |
20/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 30y |
11st 12lb |
Front-runner is 1-28 under rules (the win coming on AW in 2024) and was disappointing at Dundalk when last seen; 0-5 over hurdles, with his best effort a 14.5l fifth behind subsequent Grade 1 winner Koktail Divin at Leopardstown (2m4f, yielding); probably flattered by that placing, but it's interesting that Jack Kennedy takes the ride (2-5 riding for this trainer). |

Maiden was good fifth over 1m at the Curragh in October; then stepped back up in trip to 10.5f on AW, best run when second in November; no impact in one previous attempt over this far; headgear left off. |
12/1 |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Seventeen-race maiden is 0-3 on the AW; narrowly denied over C&D in November and 2lb lower now; needs to bounce back from a below-par effort here 17 days ago, chance if she does. |

Hurdle and dual chase winner was poor in this sphere last time after a couple of falls chasing; isn't well-treated at these weights. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 110y |

Dual chase winner at Thurles last year over 2m5f; not badly treated but probably in need of a confidence boost after two falls over fences; cheekpieces now as well as usual tongue-tie. |

Sole win came here last September (1m5f, good) but numerous placings include this term at Sligo; not much luck in running at Leopardstown on latest so remains of interest, especially given his record here. |
8/1 |
|
9th 10 (13) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 180y |
9st 10lb |
1-28 record is a concern; compiled a sequence of seconds; placed seven times in all, including at Sligo 12 days ago; senior rider aboard, with a very capable apprentice on the stable's other runner Eastern Wind; hard to be sure which one will prove best. |

Flat winner is 0-26 over hurdles; off since heavy defeat in handicap chase at Thurles in October; has run well here on the Flat in the past but overall record fresh suggests he might need this after 194 days off. |

30th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 80y |

Two Flat wins from 56 starts, placed 16 times; 26-race maiden over hurdles, placed five times; fair run on the Flat last week; no chasing experience; overall record suggests he will find a few too good. |
