Holding his form pretty well, finishing 1½ lengths behind Arch Enemy at Killarney (11.5f, good) 5 days ago (having won the same race in 2025). May again find a few too good at the weights.

Sole Flat success came under an attacking ride at Bellewstown in October 2024. Ran to similar level when third here last summer. Now drops in grade following quiet winter on all-weather and last mont…

Fair winner over 1¼m for Ian Williams last summer. Well below that level for current yard, including in this grade at Fairyhouse last time. Hopes pinned on first-time tongue strap/refitting of cheekp…

Very lightly-raced for age. Fair form in Dundalk maidens but no impact either handicap start on all-weather last spring. Handicapper has at least offered further respite ahead of his return/turf debu…

In good form at Dundalk over the winter. Hasn't looked close to capitalising on lower turf mark (0-11 on this surface) in recent starts, though.

Relatively lightly-raced 4-y-o. Went close in this grade on the all-weather at Dundalk in late-May. Arguably kicked too soon when ¾-length second to next-time-out winner Arch Enemy at Navan (1¼m) lat…
