In good form over the summer and gained reward for consistency when landing a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Killarney in July; made his chase debut off his hurdles mark when a creditable fourth in a 2m5f handicap at the same venue last month; should come forward for that and play a significant hand here. |

Breakthrough after some good placed runs over C&D in April, beating Cowper Hall by 2l on good; below form next time but shaped well when beaten 10.5l into third at Listowel 54 days ago; could be more to come in first-time cheekpieces. |

A market mover when an 11.5l fifth here in May and was 11-2 when brought down early next time; he's a better chaser than hurdler, but that's reflected in his marks. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 10lb |
Attracted heavy market support at Cork last time (2m3f, good) but could only manage fifth; punters likely attracted by now 19lb lower hurdles mark, but dual chase winner is yet to match that form in this sphere; may want softer ground than this. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 50y |

Much improved sent chasing last season, winning twice (including here); sent off favourite over hurdles at Thurles and fences at Leopardstown when below best; again couldn't take advantage of significantly lower hurdles mark here last time (2m1f, yielding) when tailed off; attractive mark but clearly risky. |
