10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 103y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Second Tramore success when easily seeing off nine rivals in a 2m1f handicap (soft; first win was on good) on New Year's Day; the handicapper hasn't missed him but there may be more to come for his leading Irish stable. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Reserve; improved effort when coming 13l clear in 2m1f handicap at Tramore (soft; both wins there) on New Year's Day; much higher mark here but he's low mileage and could progress again. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
10st 9lb |
Gowran maiden hurdle winner in October over 2m4f won a Leopardstown handicap over this trip in March and ran a fine third in a Listed Fairyhouse contest last time; up 2lb but should go well again with cheekpieces added. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 7f 170y |
11st 7lb |
Point winner won a Gowran maiden hurdle last October and most recently relished step up in trip for handicap debut win over 3m at Leopardstown last month, coming off pace to assert from last (soft); progressive staying type but has 8lb rise to contend with. |

The 2025 Galway hurdle winner but was poor this time around and has questions to answer; won on the Flat in May; Nina Carberry back. |

12th 3 |
30th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 11y |
11st 11lb |
Promoted winner of this race last year after receiving critical interference; has been mixing hurdling and Flat action since then, down the field in the County Hurdle; beat the very useful Absurde in a conditions' hurdle at Cork in April; kept ticking over with an odds-on Flat win in a 1m6f Listowel contest two months ago; 7lb higher than last year. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
11st 12lb |
Two hurdle wins in France in his early days; unconvincing chase form since his return from a long absence; made mistakes and was pulled up at Punchestown in June; previously blundered badly two out at Cork. |
4/1 |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 8lb |
One of three for trainer; dual French hurdles winner is yet to score for this yard but has run well in defeat at times, including when runner-up at Punchestown on chasing debut (2m3f, soft); returned from over a year off at Cork (2m1f, yielding) when 23l fourth behind better-fancied stablemate; makes handicap chase debut now. |

8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 4lb |
His second run back from an absence when breezing home at odds-on in a 2m soft-ground maiden at Tramore; he no doubt has plenty more to offer; this longer trip should be up his street. |
6/4 |

1st 11 |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Lightly raced 6yo showed definite ability in bumpers for Dermot McLoughlin, notably in decent Navan contest (soft-to-heavy); returned from over year's absence for current yard last month when hooded in 2m Clonmel maiden hurdle, staying on third behind an odds-on shot (soft); hood left off here but rates a major contender. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 20y |
11st 12lb |
Went close on chase bow here (2m) in June (Nadia's Boy and Scalpnagoon behind) but unseated back here next time and out of depth in hot 2m2f Galway beginners' chase on latest; this looks less demanding, this longer trip will suit and he is a leading contender with rider claiming valuable 7lb. |
11/4 |

5th 10 |
28th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 54y |
11st 12lb |
0-3 in point-to-points; 2-6 and rated 117 over hurdles; promising start to chasing career when runner up at Wexford; blotted copybook when unseating at the first back there on latest; probably up against it in this company. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
0-12 over hurdles but often placed; chase debut at Worcester was encouraging (2m, good) but she was lacklustre on her return visit when the 2m4f trip was no excuse; not entirely sure what to expect. |
7/1 |
|
6th 5 |
11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
No threat to easy winner Beorma when third of five on chasing debut here (2m, good) two weeks ago but that run was still quite encouraging, and she might be better suited by this longer trip; won't mind if the ground softens; one to consider. |
