3-36 and two of those wins were over hurdles; however, made up a lot of ground to be third of 16 in a 2m Flat handicap at Navan 19 days ago and that entitles him to a place on the shortlist. |

Best form this year has been over hurdles at Tramore; only Flat win was in 2023, and he needs to improve on recent efforts; strong trainer/rider combination. |

Third reserve; stablemate of Let Him B; well handicapped judged on last week's hurdle win at Clonmel; could be much too good for these rivals if getting a run. |

Has a very patchy profile but would be a player judged on his penultimate third at Clonmel (16.5f, heavy); looked held when brought down two out at that track three weeks ago; market will reveal expectations. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 180y |
11st 11lb |
Shed his maiden tag at Wexford in May when winning a 3m handicap hurdle off 87 (good to yielding); way below that level on his handicap chase bow at Killarney (2m7f, good to yielding) last time when tailed off; stable has hit form in the meantime and blinkers go on so he might be worth another go as he had run with credit in his two beginners'. |

Shed his maiden tag at Wexford last time when winning a 3m handicap hurdle off 87 (good to yielding); that was his first try at a 3m trip and he won going away; didn't disgrace himself in his two beginners' chase runs last season; shortlisted. |

Not the easiest to win with, as her 2-31 record over hurdles illustrates, but both wins have been over this C&D, including off this mark last summer; penultimate Wexford third was a good effort, 3m2f may have been too far last time; place claims back at optimum trip. |

Beaten 20l plus in four maiden hurdles and a handicap; off 672 days and has switched to Gavin Cromwell; stable do well with recruits and it's interesting she's been persevered with; market confidence would have to be taken very seriously. |

Reserve; has been poor the last twice, over C&D and at Wexford but has a chance on her earlier Cork fourth. |

Ran one of her best races on stable debut/second handicap start back from a break at Cork (2m4f, good) when keeping on steadily for fourth; always in rear when pulled up at Kilbeggan last time; tongue tie goes on after that disappointment and not ruled out if it has a positive effect. |
