12st 3lb |
Has a particular fondness for Killarney and won for the fifth time there three weeks ago, where he beat What Path by 1.5l over a slightly shorter trip; was just doing enough, so headgear back on; likes good ground. |

12st 0lb |
Another in here with plenty of back-class; visored when disappointing at the Cheltenham Festival but that aid was missing when 15l behind Journey With Me at Cork, where 2m4f was on the sharp side; better expected here. |

Useful track performer at best with 3-4 record in points since last October; capable of better than he showed when fourth in a hunter chase run at Thurles in January; subsequently beat record-breaking pointer Winged Leader at Nenagh, with Whacker Clan a distant third; sights lowered after Cheltenham Festival bid. |

Dual bumper and hurdle (including here) winner was a winner at Killarney and Tramore last summer over fences while was runner-up in a Galway Grade 3 novice chase in between; has gone well fresh and is respected on return. |

16th Aug 2024 Good 2m 5f 180y |
10st 12lb |
1-3 in chases; won a mares' beginners' chase at Killarney in May (2m5f, good); jumped left on second chase start at Punchestown but better at Galway on latest, beat just 0.5l in a Grade 3 novice by a solid yardstick in Ashdale Bob; gets weight from the boys here but needs to improve again to take a hand in the finish. |
2/1 |

2nd 7 |
1st Aug 2024 Good 2m 2f 54y |

Listed winner over hurdles made the ideal start over fences with a comfortable success over 2m5f at Killarney in May; jumped left and probably didn't stay effectively behind Reverend Hubert at Punchestown; will be more at home over this shorter trip than most and likely to go well. |

11st 6lb |
Dual-purpose type; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; best effort last year when fourth in a 24-runner handicap chase at the Punchestown festival; not a bad run at Fairyhouse after a break; however, Come On The Lads seems to be the yard's number one. |

Five wins and ten placed from 40 starts (2-20 over fences); disappointing since finishing fourth in a competitive Punchestown festival handicap, with several of these rivals behind him; finished behind Gaelic Arc (runner-up) at Killarney in July; remote sixth at the same venue last month when Gaelic Arc was pulled up. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Another ex-Gavin Cromwell inmate who secured narrow win over fences at Punchestown (2m, good to yielding) in June; 0-5 for this yard but February's close second of five at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) on penultimate start was a creditable effort; stable in fine form. |

11st 10lb |
Hurdle/chase winner for Gavin Cromwell who has improved with each of his four runs for this yard, most recently close second of five at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft); that looked a warm little race and he's respected. |

Two chase wins in 2024 (including a novice over C&D) but it has been slim pickings since then; no joy in 2025 and modest run at Wexford on return from a break on latest; on a dangerous mark but needs a revival. |

Four hurdle wins and two over fences, both coming in 2024; however, has not been at his best recently in either sphere; dropping in weights helps. |
