Formerly a fair hurdler/chaser, but the wheels have come right off; no appeal despite another 4lb drop. |

Formerly with Paul Nicholls then Gavin Cromwell; has four jumps wins to his name; placed twice in this code at up to 1m5f but very hard to fancy on his form since joining his current trainer. |

Won his fourth hurdle race when scoring at Catterick over an extended 3m in January and a solid run over 2m6f at Thurles since; this trip suits better and can be involved. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Point/hunter chase winner who went close over hurdles on first two starts for this yard before handicap chase win at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good to firm) last month; did it nicely last time and a 5lb rise may well not stop him. |
6/4 |

13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Irish hunter chase winner who has gone very close on both starts for this stable, beaten a neck at Fontwell (3m2f, good) and by a short head at Market Rasen (2m7f, good) nine days later; up in class but looks to have a strong chance of doubling his chase tally. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 2m 3f 130y |
10st 1lb |
Dropped away tamely in a 2m7f contest at Killarney last time; fair chance if replicating the form of previous Tipperary second over the same trip; cheekpieces on now as well as the usual tongue-tie. |
8/1 |

18th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y |

Is 0-8 over fences but there were certainly signs she was getting the hang of things when beaten 3l at Tipperary earlier this month; up 2lb but a case can be made. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 35y |

Sole win came over hurdles here in 2023; has been below form on last three chase starts and has to do plenty better. |

Losing run stretches back to March 2022; managed a few placed efforts last year but suffered a heavy defeat on sole start this year at Thurles in March; others appeal more. |

15th Mar 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 42y |
10st 3lb |
50-1 when winning this race three years ago; each-way chance on last year's best form; not at her best on her final two starts before a short break; decent form last season, when second in a handicap hurdle at Killarney and a handicap chase at Wexford. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 180y |
11st 5lb |
Gained back-to-back wins in May, easily over fences at Limerick (2m7f, good, OR 77) and hurdles at Tramore (2m6f, good, OR 75); disappointed off his new mark in a 3m1f chase here 13 days ago when last of four and tailed off in the four-runner field; needs to bounce back. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 50y |

Was a comfortable winner over fences at Limerick and hurdles at Tramore on last two starts in May; is now 12lb higher in this sphere but has to be feared if coming here in similar form. |
