11st 12lb |
Very five-time winning useful hurdler, rated 147, goes on any ground; ran to form when 3l second on chase debut at Galway (2m2f, good) 25 days ago; was well held by Daddy Long Legs over hurdles at Limerick in July but was off a break and now has the benefit of a chase run under his belt; big chance. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 118y |
11st 9lb |
Won Grade 1 Juvenile at the DRF last season; below best first three starts this season but better effort when a 7.5l third of 18 in Listed handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse latest (2m, yld-sft); same mark here but stamina to prove for this longer trip. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Grade 1-winning juvenile hurdler last season; sustained an injury over the summer and has posted decent RPR's in three defeats since returning at Christmas, latest when 10th of 23 in County Hurdle after not clear run (only 1l behind Karbau); more needed but don't rule out. |

11st 12lb |
Gained fourth hurdles success with 3.25l victory in Galway Hurdle (2m, good) off 129 23 days ago; still has a bit to find with Daddy Long Legs and Bowensonfire on ratings but claims if taking to new discipline. |

10st 1lb |
Has run only once since second at Killarney in August 2022; yard has traditionally done well with veterans; nonetheless, likely to need this. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 180y |
11st 9lb |
French bumper winner has never raced on better than yielding to soft; made the breakthrough for his current stable when taking a six-runner Fairyhouse contest by 12l on handicap debut; came up short off revised mark in Listed handicaps at Fairyhouse and Punchestown towards end of last season; ground a concern for return. |

10st 0lb |
French bumper winner; 4yo won easily on handicap bow at Fairyhouse in February (16.5f, heavy); came up short off 14lb higher back there on latest when 1lb wrong and similar story here; would probably prefer softer ground. |
25/1 |
