Second-up, he comes off a 3rd at Ballinrobe on 8 May over 1932m in a 4UP MDN, beaten 7.25L at SP 81 under 58.5kg behind Marmeladova and Mano Chicago on Good. Carries 63.0kg after the 1.5kg apprentice claim and wears a Tongue Tie, with a 472m distance shift from that run. Overall profile (13:0-3-2), including 8:0-2-2 on Good, suggests he can be competitive if he builds on that effort.

Sound effort last start when 6th of 20 at Navan (Apr 25) in a 4UP HCP over 2615m, beaten 2.9L under 62kg at SP 15 behind Kool One. Now fourth-up, she drops 211m in trip, rises to 64.5kg, and draws barrier 8 after 12 last time with Dylan Browne McMonagle aboard. That Navan run gives her a platform to be competitive if she reproduces it.

Closed 5th of 13 at Killarney on 12 May over 1637m in a 4UP MDN, beaten 4.55L at $11 under 59kg behind Hygge. Second-up after 28 days, she adds a visor, rises 5.5kg to 64.5kg, and steps up 767m in trip. That shift in distance and weight makes this a different test, but her latest run was a solid platform.

Steps up sharply in trip (up 795m) and rises to 63kg after finishing 8th of 19 at the Curragh over 1609m on 24 May (4UP HCP BM89, 7.7L, SP 11) behind Pretty Omagh Girl. Prior to that he placed 3rd at Ballinrobe over 1932m (3yo+ BM84, 3.5L, 54kg, SP 4.33). Draws barrier 1 with Colin Keane up, which should aid the setup, though he must handle the extra distance under a bigger weight.

First-up after 19 months, he gets a 3kg claim for apprentice Hugo Oliveira to carry 60kg. His latest run was at Ayr on 10 Oct 2024 over 2011m (Class 5) when 9th of 12, beaten 11.1L at SP 15 after settling back, behind Inappropriate. Steps up 393m and draws barrier 11, and he’s unplaced from his only run drawn in gates 11–13, so may need to improve.

Back on a 6‑day turnaround after finishing 10th of 12 at Curragh over 2816m (4yo+ BM116, soft) when beaten 22.25L at 17. Drops 412m in trip and rises to 63kg with cheekpieces listed, and he did win a 2148m 4UP CLAIM at Dundalk in March (64.5kg, SP 1.73) over Persian Bliss. Two recent hurdle placings also underline a solid season (9:1-2-1), so a rebound is possible back nearer that winning distance.

Drops 814m in trip and 3kg to 59.5kg after finishing 9th of 14 at Down Royal on 29 May over 3218m (0-60), beaten 16.05L at 41 carrying 62.5kg behind Our Lucky Lady. Earlier this year she was 5th at Dundalk over 2148m (0-60), 6.5L off with 63.5kg. With an overall record of (14:0-0-0) and no placings from six rides with Luke Mcateer, she’ll need to improve, but the sharper trip and lighter weight offer some hope.

Finished 15th of 15 at Gowran Park on 20 May over 1609m in a 3UP MDN on Good, beaten 28.9L at SP 301 carrying 63.5kg. Now fourth-up, he drops 7.5kg to 56kg with Reese Holohan’s 3kg claim, draws barrier 2, and steps up 795m in trip. Needs to turn form around, but the weight relief and inside draw could help him show more.

Second up and drops 11kg to 56kg with Keithen Kennedy’s 2.5kg claim. Latest run at Cork on May 3 was 10th of 10 in a 2121m 3UP C&G MDN on soft/heavy, beaten 87.3L at 251 with 67kg behind Atomic City, and he’s yet to place (6:0-0-0), so improvement is required.

Back on the flat, he ran 4th of 10 at Dundalk on 26 May over 1609m in a 4UP CLM (BM60), beaten 5.25L at 12 carrying 56kg behind The Liffey. Overall record (10:1-1-0), with his best figures on good ground (6:1-1-0). Now up to 58.5kg with Chris Hayes and a Tongue Tie applied, he tackles a 795m distance change off that solid return.
