  • Pos 5 22 Aug 2026 Killarney (IRE)

    Held a forward spot early - lost touch to sit sixth after the eighth - moved into fourth passing three out and third after the next - hit the front rank in second before the last but blundered there - form gave way in the run-in to finish 5th

  • Pos PU 17 Jul 2026 Killarney (IRE)

    at the tail of the field early - mistake at the 4th - slipped further back by halfway - driven after the 11th - pulled up before 2 out without ever threatening

  • Pos 4 30 May 2026 Tramore

    Held up at back - still 7th at halfway - driven with little response two out - finished strongly to snatch 4th late

  • Pos 14 13 May 2026 Punchestown

    Raced handy early - held 3rd/4th through the middle stages - slipped back after 2 out - faded steadily to finish well beaten
