11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Unraced beyond 3m2f; came into his own as a novice last term, notably in the 3m Grade 1 at Cheltenham Festival which he won by 4l from Stellar Story; no impact at the top level in Ireland this season and he clambered over the final fence on his way to a heavy defeat behind several of today's rivals in a Grade 3 last time, so current prospects don't look so bright. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 2f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Leading novice chaser last season, unbeaten in three completed starts; beat Stellar Story by 4l in the Brown Advisory but fell at the fifth at the Punchestown festival; never sighted in the John Durkan on return and soundly beaten in the Savills (ahead of Stellar Story but behind Grangeclare West); pulled up in the Irish Gold Cup last time; top-weight looks up against it. |

2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 100y |
11st 10lb |
A leading novice chaser last season when unbeaten in three completed starts; took advantage of Ballyburn's failure to beat Stellar Story in the Brown Advisory at Cheltenham; fell at the fifth in a 3m1f Grade 1 event won by Champ Kiely at the Punchestown festival; never involved in the John Durkan on reappearance; soundly beaten in the Savills. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Smart chaser who scored at Navan (2m4f) last December but his form nosedived after for Gordon Elliott, tried in cheekpieces when pulled up at Punchestown (2m4f) in April; starts out for a new yard here with something to prove. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
11st 12lb |
Both chase wins have come at Navan, notably 2m5f Listed handicap in December off 144 (soft-to-heavy); Cheltenham run put a line through as badly hampered early on, but recent Grade 2 Fairyhouse effort was a lacklustre one; cheekpieces now reached for and joint top-weight has a bit to prove. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |
11st 4lb |
Won his bumper here; both chase wins have come at Navan; won a 20.5f Listed handicap chase on testing ground there off 144 in December; disappointed when third-favourite for the Plate Handicap at Cheltenham; better than that and has a good chance at the weights; can't be discounted. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 72y |
11st 2lb |
2-10 over hurdles and rated 143; Grade 1 novice winner at Fairyhouse in December 2023 but that was his last win in this sphere; vast majority of best form is on soft and heavy ground, so could probably do with some rain; would be getting 9lb from Daddy Long Legs in a handicap; place claims. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y |
10st 11lb |
Fairly lightly raced, including some good efforts over fences, since landing big pot at Galway in 2023; back over hurdles this year and seems to have retained his ability; ran well in a strong Bellewstown handicap two starts back; 2m6f seemed too far for him at Galway festival, but it was by no means a bad run. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 108y |
10st 11lb |
Won a valuable 2m handicap here in 2023 and won over fences after; solid runs at Wexford and Bellewstown lately, with the latter run looking better after the win of Putapoundinthejar in the Galway Hurdle; can run a sound race if staying. |
16/1 |

4th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 40y |
11st 10lb |
Won a handicap at the Galway festival in 2023 and a Punchestown novice chase in December 2024; ran only twice last season; higher rated as a chaser; bright display when third in a conditions hurdle at Wexford in May; could go well here. |
10/1 |
