27th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 179y |
11st 6lb |
Eight wins (four on Flat, four over hurdles); ended last season with a Curragh second behind Sirius; confidence dented by recent form over jumps. |

11st 6lb |
Grand sort has won four hurdles, including two small-field contests here last year; returned with a spin over fences in May; 2m3f is the farthest he's gone, so stamina for 3m is the concern. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 54y |

Classy hurdler 4-11 in that sphere and rated 140; ground versatile; off since decent Flat run at the Curragh in October; returns with yard in form and his half-brother Royal Hollow has won for this stable over fences; could prove hard to beat if fit. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Blinkered first time when third of 14 on his handicap debut in this sphere at Thurles (2m5f, yielding) in January and off the mark over fences when landing fairly valuable event at Gowran (2m, heavy) last month; 22-1 and pulled up in Listed novice handicap last time but that had the makings of a warm event and he needs respecting. |

11st 11lb |
Improved since going handicapping, decent Thurles effort followed by 2m Gowran win last month on heavy under a positive ride from today's rider; 5lb higher and this looks a much stronger race. |

7th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 5lb |
Second on his first two starts over fences last April/May; remote seventh behind Kopek Des Bordes at Navan in November; below-par when sharing favouritism in a Punchestown conditions hurdle in December; ran out of steam late on handicap chase debut over 2m5f at Thurles, 2m may suit better. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Well handicapped on form shown in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien but returned from break with three underwhelming runs for new stable towards end of last season; sure to appreciate today's ease in grade but still has quite a bit to prove. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Flat and jumps winner for Joseph O'Brien; it's not been an easy start for current yard, finishing last in the Grade 2 Kingwell (50-1) and then well down the field when 100-1 for the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham; has something to prove all of a sudden. |

Flat and jumps winner for Joseph O'Brien; ran according to market expectations (rank outsider of four) in the Kingwell Hurdle on return from layoff and debut for new stable; drops back in class but needs to prove he's still capable of reproducing best Irish form. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 13lb |
One-time smart hurdler; three chase wins in the space of four runs last year included a beginners chase at this meeting and a 2m2f Grade 3 at Punchestown; hasn't kicked on at all from that sequence and he'd be a surprise winner. |

Useful chasing campaign last season returned three wins from seven starts; not at his best in a Newbury Grade 2 last November or in Aintree Grade 1 in April; 140 hurdles rating puts him 8lb behind Bowensfire. might be more effective than his stablemate on this ground. |

Mostly hurdling this year and has faced some stiff competition but acquitted himself well at times; sole win over fences came in 2020 and pulled-up last chase start in January. |

Has plenty of back-class and didn't run at all badly in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham; however, it was off level weights when just ahead of My Gaffer last time and will need to run better to win this, even with Finn Brickley taking off 7lb. |

18th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 92y |
11st 7lb |
Placed in a pair of handicap hurdles in the spring, notably second over 2m5f at this venue in April; returned from a spell on the Flat to win at Tramore 10 days ago; task was eased by a rival's fall two out, even so a 6lb rise could prove lenient. |

Point/hurdle/chase winner; only raced five times on the Flat and kept on for a closing fourth at Down Royal last time; that was over 2m2f and this shorter trip perhaps not ideal. |

18th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y |
10st 0lb |
Prolific winner whose last five wins have all been at Listowel, notably on successive days last month (yielding) under today's rider, over 1m1f and under mandatory 7lb penalty over 7f; aggregate 15lb rise takes him to a career-high but has to be respected being in such good form. |

Had been running respectably in handicaps at Galway and Roscommon before winning over 1m1f here yesterday; would carry a 7lb penalty if taking up this engagement to bid for his third win in four years in this contest. |

21st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y |

Veteran has a fine record at this venue, three wins and three places from nine visits; won twice at last year's festival; recent form offers hope he is ready to strike again; however, he is best suited by testing conditions. |
