Point recruit who has made a good start under Rules, placed in a bumper in May and on both outings in maiden hurdles since, 3 lengths third of 15 to Colliers Quay at Ballinrobe on latest. Sets the standard and wears first-time tongue strap but may prove vulnerable to improvers.

Crystal Ocean gelding who made it third time lucky in bumpers when seeing off 6 rivals at Limerick (heavy) last season. Stiff tasks at Cheltenham and Punchestown on next 2 starts but ought to prove at least as effective over hurdles if ready to go on the back of a 5-month break.

€15,000 3-y-o: second foal: half-sister to winning pointer (by Getaway): dam, unraced, closely related to top-class staying chaser Cue Card out of useful hurdler/chaser (winner up to 3m) Wicked Crack. Placed twice in points in 2025 and makes plenty of appeal making hurdling bow for excellent yard.

Course bumper winner in May. Was in the process of running well and still in front when unseating rider soon after 3 out in fillies maiden hurdle won by Kingside Lady at Wexford last month. Claims if putting in a clear round of jumping this time.

€4,500 3-y-o: fifth foal: dam (c95/h92), 23f hurdle/chase winner, sister to winning hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3¼m) Balbriggan and fairly useful 2m-3m hurdle winner Mt Leinster Gold. Off mark in points at fourth attempt (Nov 2025).

Well held on completed starts in maiden hurdles and makes limited appeal.

Walk In The Park gelding who showed some ability when sixth of 8 in Killarney bumper on debut in July. Went with distinctly less encouragement when well beaten at Galway 11 days later, though.

Pulled up in bumper on debut and no promise to be gleaned from either of his 2 starts in maidens hurdles since.

Blue Bresil mare bred to stay well and not without promise in bumpers or maiden hurdles, for all she has offered little win threat. Handicaps over longer trips should suit better.

€1,000 3-y-o: seventh foal: half-sister to fairly useful hurdler Enemy Coast Ahead (2m-2½m winner, by Malinas): dam 1¾m-2m winner. Pulled up sole start in points (Apr 2026).

€16,000 3-y-o: seventh foal: half-brother to 2 winners, including useful hurdler Nayati (2m-2½m winner, by Spirit One): dam, maiden over jumps in France, sister to smart hurdler/chaser (stayed 21f) Theinval. Last of 4 finishers completed start in points (May 9).

€9,500 3-y-o: fourth foal: dam (h115), 2½m hurdle winner, sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 21f) Captain Blackpearl. Likely to need time and a bit more distance.

Well held both starts in recent weeks and will make no appeal this side of handicaps. Engaed 1.55 Listowel Wednesday.

No impact in a bumper and in 2 maidens hurdles since returning from a year off.

Poet's Word gelding. Well beaten on both outings in maiden hurdles at Naas.
