Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4th 7 (2) | 4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y | 9st 11lb | Gained fourth win of career on latest at Down Royal (5f, soft); effective on quicker ground so conditions no concern and has gone well here before but a 6lb rise makes things tougher (never won off a mark this high). | 8/1 |
| 1st 6 (9) | 19th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y | 9st 5lb | Won a 5f Cork handicap last season (good to yielding); okay run in same race last time when fourth; overall form this season has been underwhelming; down 2lb now. | 3/1 |
| 4th 9 (4) | 14th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y | 8st 13lb | Won this race last year off the very same mark but, bar his second at Naas in May, he's not been so clever this season. | 11/2 |
| 6th 10 (4) | 7th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 180y | 8st 13lb | Has shown signs of a return to his best; backed up a second placing over 5f at Naas with a third over 5f at this venue, a showing that gives him an edge over Alfred Tennyson. | 15/2 |
| 3rd 11 (11) | 16th May 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y | 8st 9lb | Three turf wins include one over C&D (yielding) off 5lb lower; sole win last year at Cork (5f, gd-yld) and was beaten just 0.5l off the same mark at Naas on latest (5f, good); raised 3lb for that and this is a deeper race. | 13/2 |
