7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 11lb |
Useful hurdler won a valuable prize at Galway last year; ran well at Fairyhouse on the first of two chase starts last autumn; returned from a break to win in good style at Limerick; leading chance despite 8lb rise. |

Useful hurdler won a valuable prize at Galway last year; ran well at Fairyhouse on the first of two chase starts last autumn; one to consider on return and the market can guide as to readiness. |

Second runner for yard; course hurdle winner won at Gowran in January and ran well here last time; was poor when last seen over fences though, so questions to answer in that respect. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 140y |
11st 4lb |
Course winner at 15.5f; seems best on heavy ground and scored twice in those conditions earlier this year, over hurdles at Clonmel (16.5f) and over fences at Gowran (19.5f); capable off this mark and rain would boost his claims. |
10/1 |

3rd 4 |
2nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Won over fences at Gowran and hurdles here in February but was below form over fences at Limerick since; has a lot to find against some of these rivals; due to run in the 6.42 at Limerick on Tuesday. |

31st Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 200y |

Won over hurdles at Clonmel and fences at Gowran last month but disappointed here over fences last time so has to rebound; claims if he does. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |
11st 2lb |
Won two 3m hurdles in 2024; some fine runs in defeat last year, but was poor on chase debut making her return at Limerick; some improvement back over hurdles at Bellewstown last time, but improvement required. |
14/1 |

5th 11 |
18th Apr 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 5y |
11st 9lb |
Won twice over hurdles in 2024 over this trip; some fine runs in defeat last year but was poor on chase debut last time making her return; can do better back in this sphere. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 |
31st Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 200y |
10st 8lb |
Two hurdle wins in 2024 and some good efforts in defeat last year; makes her chase debut after a break and others make more appeal. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |
12st 0lb |
Hurdle and dual chase winner was poor in this sphere last time after a couple of falls chasing; isn't well-treated at these weights. |
25/1 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 110y |
11st 11lb |
Dual chase winner at Thurles last year over 2m5f; not badly treated but probably in need of a confidence boost after two falls over fences; cheekpieces now as well as usual tongue-tie. |
8/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 200y |
11st 12lb |
Dual chase winner at Thurles last year over 2m5f; pulled-up here on final 2025 start and fell at the first on return lately at Navan; seems best watched for now. |

31st Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 200y |
11st 10lb |
In good form mostly over hurdles during winter, winning at Navan and a decent effort last time; was pulled-up on last chase start in the Cork National, though, and this trip looks on the sharp side. |
9/1 |

4th 1 |
28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Chase winner bagged his second hurdling success over C&D in December off 109 at 40-1 (2m4f, soft to heavy); decent showing at Limerick next time when seventh, but his latest Gowran run was poor (2m4f, heavy). |
10/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 4f 0y |
10st 13lb |
Chase winner over 3m2f on good ground at Down Royal in May; Kilbeggan run six days later may have come too soon for him; should be sharper as a result of recent hurdles run at Punchestown. |
20/1 |
