10st 5lb |
Off the mark over fences in a Kilbeggan beginners' on latest (25.5f, good), pulling clear to score by 9l; raised 6lb for that effort but has placed off this sort of mark before and the drop back in trip shouldn't pose any problems; player. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 80y |
11st 12lb |
Four-time winner over hurdles and has performed respectably over fences without winning; not a bad run in a 2m4f handicap here last time after seven months off and can go well. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 5lb |
5-46 over fences, including three over C&D; is 1lb lower than when scoring here in September and took a step in the right direction when fifth over C&D on latest (behind Milan Forth); can't be discounted given his affinity for this venue. |
18/1 |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 6lb |
A Grade 1-winning juvenile hurdler in his younger days, far from the force of old but still well capable; latest win came in handicap chase over C&D in September; down the field at Leopardstown and in veterans' event at Wexford last twice; dropped 3lb; 3-6 at this track and each-way player. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 40y |
10st 12lb |
Five-time winner, 2-10 over fences; ran to form when last seen in this sphere in November, beaten 5l into third at Down Royal (3m, good); returned from lay-off with satisfactory run over hurdles 85 days ago; versatile trip-wise and enjoys good ground; could be in the mix. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 50y |
11st 6lb |
Five-time winner under rules (three over hurdles); took second behind progressive rival on return from 87-day break at Punchestown in October (2m7f, good to yielding); another positive run when third over fences last time at Down Royal (3m, good to yielding); consistent sort but there may be better handicapped contenders. |

Point and hurdle winner has been soundly beaten over fences lately but would have a shout on his best hurdles form of last year. |

21st Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 7f 150y |
11st 0lb |
Point-to-point winner; no further success since Sligo maiden hurdle win in June 2024; second behind Gringo d'Aubrelle in a Listed hurdle here in December; ran over inadequate trips in two January chase runs; 6-1 for Punchestown Grand National Trial (3m4f, heavy) but could only manage eighth; interestingly, Jack Kennedy now rides. |

Lucky to win a Tramore beginners' but then ran well in Market Rasen handicap; lapped at Perth and back from a break here. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Almost certainly fortunate when winning Tramore beginners' chase (2m5f, good to yielding) in April, given he was in fourth (albeit close up) when the front three came to grief two out, but ran big race when clear second in Market Rasen handicap (3m, good) last month and features prominently in calculations here. |

Well held behind William Tell and Nadia's Boy in a 2m beginners' here in June; no match for Charlie Luciano upped to 25.5f at Kilbeggan latest; this trip more suitable but he's 0-7 over fences now and needs to find more to get his head in front. |

Hasn't won on the Flat since scoring over C&D at this meeting in 2023; went close at Navan in April (1m5f, gd-yld) off 2lb lower; hasn't backed that up since but did run a nice race over hurdles here on Wednesday. |

Sole Flat success came in a 1m4f handicap at this meeting three years ago and later that year he won a maiden hurdle; no joy since though and was struggling when last seen over hurdles. |

Won at Kilbeggan in June, his fifth hurdle win, but was beaten a long way there since so has to bounce back in a competitive race. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Modest strike-rate of 3-40 over fences, although one of his wins came here; latest success was in August 2024 at Kilbeggan; showed more promise returned to there last time (2m5f, yielding) when a distant third of 11; he's now 19lb below his last winning mark, but must build on his last run. |

3rd 11 |
31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 80y |

Modest strike-rate of 3-39 over fences with last win coming over C&D in August 2024; jumped badly when pulled up on final two starts in 2025; possibly needed the run at Limerick ten days ago. |
