28th May 2022 Good 2m 0f 50y |
11st 12lb |
Third-season maiden; latest RPR 138 at Festival here renders him a certainty; often keen. |

Seems to struggle in hotter company but latest Killarney effort (RPR 135) advertises credentials if she stays (non-stayer on form but early days); tactically versatile. |

No match for Allaho at Cheltenham but looked as good as ever when winning a Grade 3 at Cork last month; probably better at 3m these days though or would at least want the ground testing to be winning graded races at 2m4f. |

Showed promise in a light campaign over hurdles last term and off the mark on third chase start at Wexford (extended 3m1f, heavy); held in a Grade 3 next time but handled better ground when solid running-on fourth in Punchestown festival handicap last time; stepping back up in trip will help him. |

Rated 140 over hurdles although just 1-8; strong traveller but often a weak finisher and hard to know his best trip; has to be respected now switched to fences. |

14th May 2022 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 13lb |
Not ideal giving weight away to all rivals on the back of a couple of below-par runs, but holds a live chance on the basis of his peak form; cheekpieces fitted for the first time; trainer has 38 per cent strike rate here across last five seasons (21 wins from 55 runners). |

Mare deserved impressive Clonmel win; RPR 137 when Grade 1 third at Fairyhouse renders her the one to beat; track should suit prominent racer; penalised. |

Dual winner on the Flat rated 93 and in finished in midfield when last seen in a 1m4f Leopardstown handicap in October; big chance if he transfers all his ability to this sphere. |

11st 3lb |
Lightly raced 5yo won bumper at last year's Festival and ran away with Thurles maiden hurdle this term; stiff task for one so inexperienced in Martin Pipe on handicap debut, too keen and didn't get home; more likely if settling better and interestingly Townend's choice. |

30th Apr 2022 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 30y |
10st 10lb |
French recruit fared really well on handicap debut at Fairyhouse (2m) over Easter when getting up to deprive stablemate Heia of second behind a ready winner with several other of today's rivals behind; 4lb higher but clearly on the improve and good chance this longer trip will suit. |
8/1 |

30th Apr 2022 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 30y |
10st 8lb |
Easy winner of ordinary Fairyhouse mares' maiden and returned to same venue a fortnight ago with excellent run in valuable 2m handicap, only conceding second to stalemate La Prima Donna final strides; meets that rival on similar terms here and big chance if she stays this longer trip. |
9/1 |

30th Apr 2022 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 30y |
10st 5lb |
Won maiden hurdle at Limerick and second in Grade 3 at same venue on heavy ground; didn't jump well when out of depth in Grade 1 at Fairyhouse on latest and now makes handicap debut; yard have seemingly stronger contenders. |

30th Apr 2022 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 30y |

Second reserve; two from two in heavy ground bumpers last year including Listed contest at Limerick; off the mark on third start over hurdles at Navan (2m) before upped markedly in trip in Fairyhouse novices' handicap, not looking to get home over 3m; intermediate trip her could be ideal; 1lb wrong |

Fortunate winner of the Triumph two years ago; progressive on the Flat last year, finishing runner-up in the Cesarewitch before reverting to hurdles this winter; hit the frame in the Grade 1 Christmas Hurdle before a career best Grade 3 win here in February and had an excuse (lost a shoe) at Cheltenham since; career best required here though; yard's first-string. |

30th Apr 2022 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 30y |
11st 5lb |
Got better with every start last season, culminating in a Grade 3 novice success at Tipperary on third career start; didn't jump well and fell when favourite for her return at Leopardstown at Christmas; could easily have more to give but Townend prefers Burning Victory. |

Faller in Aintree National on latest and pulled up first two starts this term; in between decent second in 3m2f Down Royal conditions event; front-runner stays well; owner/trainer scored here on Wednesday with Royal Rendezvous and no surprise if she bounced back. |
