11st 0lb |
Veteran was pulled up in a chase at Punchestown on his final start last term; returned to form when winning readily over hurdles for this rider at Navan in September; retains plenty of ability; fitted with a tongue-tie now. |

25th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 200y |
10st 6lb |
Likes a stamina test, most recent win coming in 3m Listowel handicap hurdle over a year ago (soft) off 117; back from chasing when soundly beaten in repeat win attempt there last month so has it to prove now. |

24th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 0y |
11st 8lb |
Reverts from chasing in a bid to repeat last year's win in this event; only 2lb higher; ground will suit him better than on recent chase starts; worth considering, though his much younger stablemate Bitofajokelike seems more appealing. |

Last chase success was over three years ago at the 2022 Punchestown festival; getting on in years now; hard to be confident in the circumstances. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Won three times from the front (once over C&D) last season and lost out only narrowly in refitted cheekpieces at Plumpton (3m1f, good) a fortnight ago but this veteran is nothing like the force of old, and might find this race to competitive. |
8/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Veteran chaser who landed his third win of the season, over C&D (soft) in February when getting the better of Lumi Plugin; found the Sussex National back here 13 days ago a tad too competitive but cannot be dismissed here back in the right grade. |
7/2 |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 104y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Three wins in small fields this season (2m5f-3m5f, good/soft) and another good run when second of three at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) recently; however, there's a suspicion this 12yo will find today's race too competitive. |

10st 7lb |
Was gaining fourth chase win when beating Marronstown over 3m2f at Down Royal last season off 97; below best in two starts since, running no sort of race at Navan last month; hard to be confident in. |

11st 7lb |
Won a handicap chase at Naas in January 2023 off 123; 5lb lower now but has completely lost his form in eight runs since; pulled up in his last three starts over fences; others more likely. |

27th Dec 2024 Yielding To Soft 2m 6f 120y |
10st 12lb |
Yet to win over fences but placed four times; potentially well handicapped on his best form, namely a flattering 5l second behind subsequent Galway Plate winner Pinkerton at Tipperary in April; this is a winnable contest but he comes with risks attached. |
