Winner in bumper at Naas in January. Seemed held back by his inexperience above all second time up over hurdles when eleventh of 15 in minor event at Punchestown (19.3f, good to soft, 7/2) 8 months ago. Yard starting to fire so no surprise to see him feature under a promising conditional.
€40,000 3-y-o, Tirwanako gelding. Dam (b75), in frame in bumpers/well held over hurdles, sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 23f) Ballypoint. Made frame sole start in points (Apr 2025). Tongue tied for Rules bow.
Has made the frame all 4 starts over hurdles, latest when third of 10 on handicap debut at Gowran (16.1f, heavy) 7 weeks ago. Tongue strap on 1st time and could take some stopping returned to maiden company.
€36,000 3-y-o. Second foal. Dam unraced half-sister to fair hurdler/useful chaser who became unreliable (stayed 33f) Major Malarkey and fairly useful hurdler/chaser (2½m-3m winner) Twin Plan.
€25,000 3-y-o, Westerner gelding. Brother to modest 2m hurdle winner Western Safire. Unplaced completed start in points, pulled up last time (Oct 26). Wears tongue strap.
Tailed off in bumper/maiden hurdle 8 months apart. Best watched.

€10,000 3-y-o, Clovis Du Berlais gelding. Dam, 1½m winner on Flat in France, half-sister to prolific top-class chaser (stayed 21f) Un de Sceaux. Market check advisable.
No impact in 3 maiden hurdles. Can only be watched.
Down the field in maiden hurdle/bumper (too free latest). Significant improvement needed back hurdling.
40/1, showed more than first time up over hurdles when fourth of 7 in maiden at Thurles (19.8f, good) 11 months ago. Easy to look elsewhere.
