£24,000 3-y-o, Affinisea gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Lazer Wolf and fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Bilbo Bagins. Dam, unraced, from family of smart chaser Watson Lake, effective at 2m to 3m. Newcomer is likely to be one for the future.
€82,000 3-y-o, Flemensfirth gelding. Dam, well held sole start in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to dual bumper winner Funny Times. Successful on last of 3 starts in points (Apr 2025). Market should guide on Rules debut for top yard who also saddle With Nomlit.
Friendless in the betting on debut but made a bright start, finishing third of 22 in novice hurdle at this course (20.2f, heavy) 19 days ago, running on. Down in trip for this switch to a bumper and may well take a step forward on second career outing.
Point-runner up. Well held sixth on bumper debut but has shown ability over hurdles, latest fifth of 20 in novice hurdle at Gowran (16.1f, heavy, 18/1) 28 days ago. One to consider with Patrick Mullins booked for this return to a bumper.
Bred more for the Flat but showed a bit when fifth of 12 in bumper at Down Royal (16.8f, good to soft) on NH debut. Off 19 months and would need to build on that.
Soldier of Fortune gelding. Brother to bumper winner Soldier In Milan, and half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Time To Rocco and fair hurdler Western Ruler, stayed 19f. Makes some pedigree appeal but was pulled up sole start in points (May 2025). Betting should guide.
Maxios gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler Shotgun Jack. Dam (c102/h112) 2m-21f hurdle/chase winner. Newcomer from capable yard is worth a market check.
Runner-up in point that has worked out well. Promising second in 15-runner novice hurdle at Galway (solid form) on Rules debut and backed that up when third in a 6-runner bumper at Punchestown (16.9f, soft) 13 days ago, running on. Should give another good account.
£250,000 4-y-o, Bande gelding. Dam, French hurdler (17f winner), closely related to Welsh National winner Le Beau Bai. Won sole start in points (Mar 2025) and he’s an interesting Rules newcomer for powerful stable.
Hinted at ability when eighth of 16 in bumper at Punchestown (18.4f, heavy, 25/1) on NH debut/sole start for Stephen Ryan. Off 11 months and would need to take a step forward on first start for new yard.
