22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 7f 20y |
11st 12lb |
Won Gowran beginners' chase last season before being pulled-up in the Irish National; back to form on seasonal return when second in 2m5f Navan Listed handicap but two disappointing runs since and now reverts to hurdles off 14lb lower mark so has to be respected. |

Won a Gowran beginners' chase last season before being pulled-up in the Irish National; bounced back to form on return when second in a Navan Listed event but questions to answer now after being pulled-up in testing ground in the Thyestes Chase; cheekpieces added. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
10st 6lb |
Lightly raced but already a better chaser than hurdler, two wins coming over 2m4f at Wexford, most recently showing good attitude back in October on good-to-yielding; absent since but conditions to suit and likely more to offer. |
8/1 |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 130y |
11st 4lb |
One of two for trainer; built on a creditable third at Kilbeggan on chasing debut to win a beginners' over C&D in July (good); struggled upon entering handicap chase company back at Kilbeggan when upped in trip (3m2f, good to yielding); return to here may see him to best effect. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 0lb |
Won his second point-to-point after unseating in his first; 1-5 over hurdles after landing a Gowran maiden in October (2m1f, soft) and is rated 120 over smaller obstacles; some encouragement in his chase debut at Limerick last time when an 18.5l third; others preferred. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
11st 12lb |
Point winner won a Gowran maiden hurdle last autumn before a fine second in a Galway novice to a subsequent Grade 1 winner; hasn't gone on from that and just fair handicap runs the last twice; has work to do against some of these rivals on chase bow. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |
10st 5lb |
Mixes chasing with hurdling and has run well here over flights; won a couple of handicap chases in 2024 but held in four starts over the larger obstacles since, including on first start of the year at Wexford last month; second over hurdles since and has dropped below latest winning chase mark. |

Dual chase winner with three hurdle wins on the board; beaten 17l over fences on last month's return from a lengthy break but might strip fitter here and Kennedy is booked. |

Two-time hurdles winner is 0-7 over fences; fine effort in the Blazers when a 1.5l second off 1lb lower on penultimate; left Henry De Bromhead after a 7.5l second in a Killarney beginners' (sweated up in prelims); not discounted on debut for new yard. |

Dual hurdle winner who is 0-6 over fences but continues to threaten, having finished bang there in handicaps at Punchestown (2m4f) and Galway (2m6f) the last twice; every chance. |

1st Jun 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 0y |

Has won a maiden hurdle and a novice chase; has looked a bit outclassed in Grade 3s in his last three races and a similar scenario seems likely in this company (well behind Jesse Evans last time). |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
11st 0lb |
3-9 over hurdles; rediscovered form with fine chase efforts at Musselburgh in January but then pulled up in Ulster National and lifeless effort on return to this sphere at Kelso when beaten 28l; risky proposition. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 |
6th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 151y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Pulled up in the Ulster National (3m4f, soft) in March but he was runner-up in two chase handicaps at Musselburgh (2m4f/2m7f) before that; now returns to hurdling but he's 3-8 in this sphere and is on a dangerous mark on this drop back in trip and grade; one to keep an eye on. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |

Two-time chase winner, encouraging run when beaten 0.5l behind Harbour Highway at Leopardstown (2m6f, yielding) in March before well-held fourth at Fairyhouse 41 days ago; ground should suit and place claims. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 120y |

Won off 110 at Limerick (2m4f, good) in May; best run since on latest at Kilbeggan when a 2.75l second off 115 (20.5f, yielding); up 2lb for that and has placed at around this trip over hurdles; in the mix. |

Point winner didn't win in 10 hurdle starts but was often placed, including at this track; off the mark over fences when winning at Limerick in May; beaten 14l off this mark over C&D last time and needs more. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won a hunter chase last May (on good ground) and probably wasn't in love with the heavy surface (has won on yielding to soft) when tailed off behind Con's Roc at Fairyhouse in November in his latest hunter chase; has since run well behind a prolific pointer; only a 6yo but this race looks too tough. |

30th May 2025 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Little about his maiden point efforts presaged the huge personal best of last month's Down Royal hunter chase win (2m7f, good; RPR 133), though as a sibling of Aintree Foxhunters' second Jet Plane and prolific mare Found On he might always have made a chaser; player if backing that up. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
11st 5lb |
Useful sort for Gordon Elliott early in his career, finished a remote third behind Jonbon and El Fabiolo in a Grade 1 contest at Aintree in 2023; mostly campaigned in points for the last two years, below his best in four outings in that sphere since January. |
20/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Irish raider who returned to racing under rules with two underwhelming runs in hunter chases (3m5f/3m) this spring; drops back in trip for this handicap; needs a good boost from the new cheekpieces. |
