11st 0lb |
Made all to win 2m4f Wexford novice chase early last season; uneven form since then, best effort when a 2 3/4l runner-up to Ol Man Dingle in a Cork Grade 3 novice last November; second of four runners in a Limerick Grade 3 novice in April; has struggled in big-field handicaps and was 100-1 when pulled up in the Galway Plate. |

One of eight for trainer; made all to win 2m4f Wexford novice chase last summer but hit and miss since, best effort when a 2.75l runner-up behind Ol Man Dingle in a Cork Grade 3 novice in November; bounced back from two poor runs in big-field handicaps when second of four runners in a Limerick Grade 3 novice last time; big fields may not be his thing. |

Made all to win 2m4f Wexford novice' last summer but has been hit and miss since, best effort when runner-up in a Cork Grade 3 novice; poor runs in very competitive Leopardstown handicaps last twice but drop in class makes her a leading player. |

11st 9lb |
A 126-rated hurdler; narrowly made a winning start as a chaser over C&D before struggling in a Grade 3 at Galway when 25-1; finished well behind Intellotto that day. |

11st 1lb |
Won three hurdle races in a row in Britain last summer on good ground; back from winter break for winning chasing debut in 2m4f Wexford beginners early this month, fresh but jumping well to beat two race-fit market principals on favoured good ground; looks like making a better chaser than hurdler and not one to dismiss despite jump in class. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 110y |

Won three hurdle races in a row in Britain last summer at around 2m4f on good ground; pulled up in a better quality race next time at Worcester on soft ground (2m4f); 50l behind in a novice hurdle at Cheltenham last October; tries fences now but needs to bounce back. |

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. |
100/1 |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
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. |

11st 9lb |
Ran well when third of six at Uttoxeter (2m, good) on latest visit to Britain in July but was well beaten when falling in a Downpatrick chase last week and is too inconsistent to rely upon. |

Quirky customer won over fences at Wexford last summer; ran okay in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter but well beaten over fences at Galway since; others preferred. |
