11st 1lb |
Grade 2-winning hurdler got off the mark over fences at the fourth time of asking when landing standard Cork beginners' (2m1f, yielding) 11 days ago, doing it from the front; won't be allowed to dictate things here but opening mark is fair and is another worthy of respect for the Mullins stable. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Capable of useful form over fences in Ireland for Gordon Elliott but he's still to score in this sphere and has offered little for his new yard, jumping sketchily when pulled up in 3m Doncaster handicap three weeks ago; plenty more is required despite a tumbling mark. |

Ex-Irish 6yo; last of five finishers at Newbury (2m6f) on debut for new yard, taking chase record to 0-7; needs improvement to defy top weight. |

7th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
10st 10lb |
Sole win came in Limerick maiden hurdle (2m, soft to heavy) in 2022; has failed to win in 13 attempts over fences; made a bad mistake four out at Thurles last time; may pick up a chase at some stage, but this company looks demanding. |

5th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 142y |

Ran a fine race in a fairly valuable handicap chase at Killarney last month; now 0-11 in chases but that wasn't the first time he ran well in defeat; recent rain a plus; top rated at 126 and leading chance back in a beginners'. |

11st 5lb |
Yet to win over fences but did go close over 2m4f in a Naas beginners' chase (soft) in March where she had Galway Plate winner Western Fold 5l behind; however, she hasn't fired the last twice and she may need softer ground. |

Hurdles winner on testing ground and easily the pick of three chase efforts last season when clear second in 2m4f Naas beginners (soft); looked a bit onepaced back at 2m at Cork latest; capable back up for Aspire Tower here although really wants it softer. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
11st 7lb |
Course winner; off for 110 days but proven when fresh; last season ended on a high with his second to a handicap snip in the Plate at Cheltenham in March (2m4f) and then going one better when reversing those placings in the Topham at Aintree (2m5f); straightforward and a good jumper who should be well suited by the demands of this race; player. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Progressive over fences this season and took another step forward in a first-time tongue-tie (retained) when best of the rest behind easy winner Madara in the 23-runner Plate at last month's Cheltenham Festival (2m4f, good to soft); this lightly raced 7yo is open to further improvement; chance. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Improved spell over hurdles last spring included a sixth in the 3m Pertemps here; had a good experience when making all in a Galway chase (about 2m2f, yielding) in October and he's run well in two competitive staying handicaps since; needs improvement off this mark for the return to 2m4f but this test is worth investigating; tongue tied first time; thereabouts. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 95y |
12st 0lb |
Won a beginners' chase easily at Wexford in July (19.5f, good); ran another solid race on latest when runner-up in a Listed handicap hurdle at Galway; 6lb lower back over fences, handles most ground and obvious chance off top weight. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 108y |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |

Smart hurdler (rated 143) at his best, albeit soundly beaten in competitive handicaps final two starts last term; bit laboured in his jumping on chasing debut at Clonmel in April (soft), but has had time off since and no surprise if he returned with an improved display; has to be considered on favoured ground. |

Course hurdles winner over 3m in testing ground in January; ran three times over fences last season, easily best effort when fourth over 2m4f at Naas; however, he may need further than this and is possibly flattered by his official rating of 126. |

Won consecutive handicap hurdles in 2024; hit and miss since and one of his best efforts was runner-up at Downpatrick in June; below that twice since and needs a repeat. |

14th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Out of form this year but his run at Downpatrick in June was a positive when a 1.25l second of nine (2m2f, yielding to soft); didn't build on that at Galway last time when well beaten (2m1f, good); different headgear combination tried but needs to bounce back. |

Got back on track with a 1.25l second of 9 at Downpatrick (2m2f, yld-sft) last time out off 119; raised 1lb for that but rider's 5lb claim negates that; well beaten in this last year but claims if backing up that last run. |

Three wins over fences and rated 129 in that code; third in Midlands National here in July; 5-1 when fell in hurdle here two weeks ago, which was his first run over flights since early 2024. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 7lb |
Three-time chase winner, including at Killarney in May (3m2f, good to yielding) is 0-6 over hurdles so has a 24lb lower mark in this discipline; hasn't contested a hurdle race since 2024 and never for this yard so he looks like a huge danger to all off this mark but this trip looks tight for him. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 80y |
11st 0lb |
Wide-margin winner of a Listowel handicap chase last year and confirmed his progression when winning the Killarney National in May; even with his 9lb penalty, he was well below par at Roscommon since; others preferred. |
