3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |

Won at Down Royal last time in a tongue-tie, his second win over hurdles; 7lb rise looks plenty but still respected; handles soft so could be fine on this ground. |

Good ground Sligo winner in June 2024 off 3lb lower; lightly raced since, didn't get beyond the first at Navan last time; tongue-tie now tried, hard to be confident in. |

11st 13lb |
Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when runner-up at Down Royal (2m1, soft, 7-2 fav') in final start for Gary McGill in January; unfancied and well beaten in two runs for new yard; may go well back in 0-100 company now. |

Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January off 3lb lower; weak in the market for Ayr run last time, weakening quickly to finish last of six finishers; in the mix at his best. |

Has won three times, including over C&D two years ago when trained by current handler, who has taken over once more after eight starts for Gary McGill; returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January and this Irish-trained challenger should be in the firing line. |

11st 12lb |
Yet to win (0-12 rules) and his form figures over fences (FP8) aren't convincing; that said; he would have at least made the frame but for a final-fence fall at Thurles (2m2f; soft) in February; badly out of sorts on last two starts, so will need the cheekpieces to revitalise. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Running well when falling on his chase debut but pulled up and tailed off in his last two runs in that discipline; returned to hurdles two runs back at Bellewstown and wasn't beaten far, so could feature. |

Placed in three of her last four races, every chance if a step up in trip does the trick after a recent second placing in a 16-runner 2m contest at Clonmel; more mature now than when fading in the closing stages over C&D last November. |

Best effort yet on return from 131 days off at Kilbeggan (17.5f, gd-yld) when a 7.75l fourth of 13; should strip fitter now, eased 1lb and pedigree suggests that this trip might suit; not discounted. |
