11st 7lb |
Gained his sole hurdles success in this event in 2024; unconvincing Flat form this summer makes him hard to fancy; however, he showed fair form over hurdles in the first half of 2025. |

Sole Flat win came in 2023 although has mostly been competing over hurdles in recent times; improved markedly over poor Navan seasonal return when fourth at Roscommon (1m4f, good), staying on after slowly away; below that at the Curragh last time; on career low mark. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo; built upon encouraging stable debut (over hurdles) when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last month and bettered that form when clear second to an improver at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) a few days later; can cope if there's rain about; good chance. |

Scored over fences for Shark Hanlon in August 2025 but lost his way subsequently; back to his best on his second start for his current yard when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last Tuesday; shouldered with a 7lb penalty but will be suited by the step up in trip and holds claims. |

Won over fences in Ireland last August (2m3f); his respectable stable debut was over hurdles (2m) and he was keeping on at the finish; wants further ideally but one to consider under Harry Cobden. |

Course specialist has won six chases in total, four of them here at 2m4f-2m7f on yielding to soft and good ground; runner up in this last season off 140 and same mark here; chance once a fall over the banks at Punchestown hasn't dented his confidence. |

4th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
10st 0lb |
21-race maiden has generally middling form but strung two good performances together towards the backend of last year when a 1l third here (2m4f, yielding) and a 3l third at Fairyhouse (2m4f, yielding); well beaten in four starts this year but perhaps return to this track can bring out her best; previously worn tongue-tie now left off. |

Posted two solid efforts at Gowran (2m4f, yielding) and Fairyhouse (2m4f, yielding) at the backend of last year; 3m may have been too far on latest; lacks a run but has gone well fresh and could outrun likely odds. |
