10st 13lb |
Achieved a peak rating of 135 over hurdles; midfield when beaten 20l on chase debut at Fairyhouse; little impression when beaten almost 30l in fourth at Leopardstown; much improved when beating two shorter-priced stablemates at Gowran; not guaranteed to confirm the form of that race with subsequent winner Soldier In Milan. |

Achieved a peak rating of 135 over hurdles; midfield when beaten 20l on chase debut at Fairyhouse; little impression when beaten almost 30l in fourth at Leopardstown; possibly flattered by 132 official rating; stable appears to have two stronger candidates. |

Represents Team Mullins but hasn't built on an encouraging start over hurdles and he didn't get home over 3m at Ayr (novice handicap), which wasn't a total surprise given his pedigree. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 81y |
11st 12lb |
Arrives here in top form after winning back to back handicap hurdles at Cork over 2m4f (Onefortheditch 1.5l behind in second) and 3m; has gone up a total of 14lb and this is tougher but can't discount in current form. |

11st 13lb |
Point-to-point and maiden hurdle winner notched up a first handicap win over 2m4f (yielding) here 17 days ago; raised 7lb and moves up in trip but should be competitive again, though wouldn't want the track to dry out (non-runner on account of gd-yld before). |

Point and maiden hurdle winner; tailed off on chase bow at Cork in November; reverted to hurdling 12 days ago when staying on to finish second to Sky And Sand at Gowran (2m4f, heavy); player from 3lb higher. |

Bumper winner; won two handicaps last season, over 19.5f (soft) at Naas off 114 and then off 14lb higher at Sandown (2m4f, good); excellent 3.25l third despite trouble in running on seasonal reappearance in the Martin Pipe (20.5f, soft) when sent off at just 8-1 and 2lb higher now; Paul Townend now takes over; leading claims. |

Progressive novice hurdler last term, culminating in Sandown handicap success (2m4f, good); followed up in Flat challenge race at Punchestown last month, holding on from main market rival and confirming his wellbeing ahead of this return to jumps; may have more to offer. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |

Lightly raced 7yo who failed to achieve much in Ireland and changed hands for 1,400gns in January; however, her new trainer can do well with stable-switchers and it will be no surprise to see a good run; watch the betting. |

Lightly-raced 8yo; Fair fifth at Kilbeggan on penultimate start off the same mark; workmanlike winner of a maiden hurdle last time at Downpatrick (2m3f, good); this will be just his second run in a handicap so he is entitled to continue improving. |
