10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
Mistakes costly when pulled up in the Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham (2m4f, soft) last November when last seen; however, this front-runner was 3-3 in handicap chases previously, the latest win a convincing one at Killarney (2m5f, good to yielding) in August; certainly remains of interest. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 180y |

Hurdles winner has improved for the switch to chasing, winning the last twice; comfortable winner at Limerick in March (2m2f, good to yielding) before gamely winning again at Cork last time (2m1f, yielding); up another 7lb but he is lightly raced and improving rapidly. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
10st 0lb |
Two hurdle wins arrived in 2024 on heavy ground; beaten 27l over fences at Clonmel (2m7f, soft) in April, but he was only 2l down when falling at the second last hurdle here (2m4f, soft to heavy) later that month; 3lb wrong. |

16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 3f 60y |

Dual-winning hurdler has largely struggled this term and was pushed along vigorously over fences on latest at Clonmel; Jack Kennedy has been booked though, so he's worth a market check. |

2nd 11 (3) |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Usually races prominently; won four of his six starts for new yard this year, including when returned to turf for eight-runner race at Musselburgh (2m, good) in April; has excuses for the two defeats, on latest occasion fifth of 17 in the 2m2f Chester Plate despite the work he had to do to front-run from wide draw; one to note. |
7/1 |

5th 16 (14) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Seen mostly over jumps in his Irish days; getting hampered at the start prevented his usual prominent ride on penultimate outing but he's otherwise swept all before him for new yard this year, including when returned to turf for eight-runner race at Musselburgh (2m, good) 12 days ago; has 3lb penalty (the same as he's due to go up anyway) but wide draw is the chief worry. |

1st 4 (5) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Seen mostly over jumps in his Irish days; 3-3 on AW (1m6f/2m) last month upon joining this stable, before a lesser show three weeks ago when getting hampered at the start prevented his usual tactics; not ruled out on return to turf. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 3lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles; won this last year and he returns on the back of a narrow win at Clonmel (2m7f); has to enter the equation. |
6/1 |
|
1st 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Two-time chase (including here) and hurdling winner has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark on his last three starts; likes it here but remains 5lb above his last hurdles win and stamina to prove for this trip. |
18/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 45y |
11st 4lb |
Dual-hurdles and chase winner is rated 8lb lower over timber; very comfortable winner of a handicap chase at Kilbeggan in August (2m4f, good to yielding) but unable to follow up back over hurdles off lower mark at Killarney; set a tall task in a Grade 3 chase at Tipperary last time; not out of it at his best but seems to be better over fences. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 140y |
11st 1lb |
Has lost way since back to back wins in early 2025; pulled up and beaten 76l in last two chase starts; hard to fancy on recent showings. |

22nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 150y |
11st 2lb |
Better chaser than hurdler with 2m4f handicap wins last season at Punchestown and Gowran (soft); below best this term over both hurdles and fences, mildly more encouraging run in first-time cheekpieces at Gowran last time; headgear retained for return to fences but others preferred at this trip. |
9/1 |

7th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Better chaser than hurdler with two wins from eight chase starts; well beaten in four runs since handicap chase win here in February 2025; well-backed when well beaten on last hurdle start at Clonmel in January; cheekpieces. |

13th Mar 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 200y |

Consistent over hurdles without winning, placed all six starts; second in a chase at Down Royal last spring; doubts raised by a poor point-to-point run when favourite at Oldtown last month. |
