★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 1 19 Aug Sligo (IRE)

    Settled towards the back of the pack early - made progress to 4th 3 out and up into 3rd soon after - into 2nd approaching the last under pressure - finished strongly to get up in the final strides

  • Pos 1 7 Aug Wexford (IRE)

    Held up early towards the back - improved into second before three out then hit the front after the following fence - driven out to easily assert on the run to the line

  • Pos 8 21 Jul Ballinrobe (IRE)

    Travelled midfield on the inside - made ground to share the front at the 2nd - slipped back to midfield before the 5th - 4th at halfway - gave up that spot before 3 out - faded and slipped towards the back after 2 out

  • Pos 7 15 Jun Kilbeggan

    Held up in the back group - niggled at approaching 2 out - stayed 7th skipping the final fence and never threatened
