2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 104y |
10st 6lb |
Dual hurdles winner is 0-4 chasing, good second in 2m4f Gowran handicap and most recently did well after being hampered in finishing fifth of 24 in BetMGM Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham; remains unexposed as a chaser (7lb lower than hurdles) and upped in trip here. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Sixth in this last year off 1lb higher in his third handicap; chasing on last four starts, with the latest (second in a handicap) easily his best effort in that sphere, so he's of renewed interest even if he does not look the first string on jockey bookings for his highly respected stable. |

1st May 2025 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
11st 8lb |
Dual winner who has only raced six times and he stayed on well to finish sixth (just behind Beat The Bat) in the Coral Cup at Cheltenham; smacks of a horse with more to offer, especially as a stayer. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 58y |
11st 12lb |
Modest strike-rate over hurdles for one of his ability, hasn't added to Limerick maiden win as a 3yo, albeit some good runs in top company; didn't land a blow in BetMGM Cup at Cheltenham on latest but previous Leopardstown fourth was a solid effort; major claims down in grade here. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Raced freely when 12-1 in this last year and was pulled up; a maiden hurdle in December 2023 remains his last win and he's not been consistent, but such performances as his Flat third in the Cesarewitch (second favourite; plenty went wrong) in October and fourth of 16 in a hot 2m4f handicap hurdle at Leopardstown in December show that he can still be competitive on his day. |

Was hit and miss over hurdles last season but was third in the Cesarewitch back on the level and fourth in 2m4f hurdle here at Christmas; one to consider. |

10st 11lb |
Beat Tranquil Sea when landing 2m Gowran maiden on heavy over a year ago; nothing since then, tailed off when third at Clonmel on first run of the year and no show over 2m last time; trying a longer trip. |

Heavy-ground maiden winner just over a year ago but said to prefer a better surface; made no impression in Grade 2 novice next time and beaten a long way on return from lengthy layoff in January; handicap debut. |

Maiden hurdle winner was second in Listed mares' novice at Punchestown (16.5f, yielding) in May; the third has since won a Grade 2; burst blood vessel when pulled up at Punchestown on return; fell at Leopardstown latest; talented but risky proposition. |
