Only 1-15 over hurdles and 0-5 as a chaser, though has run well in this discipline; his only run for this yard was a heavy defeat on the Flat in January.

J: Mr P W Mullins

T: W P Mullins

Irish raider; best form for previous trainer when third in a Navan handicap hurdle last September (2m3f, yielding; 50-1); reportedly in season when pulled up on her stable debut in May (2m4f, soft); tongue-tie now tried; bit to prove, but no surprise if she were to run well.

J: Ms M Luabies

T: W P Mullins

Point-to-point winner; a staying-on third at Navan last September (2m3f, yielding) was her best run for Matt Daly; failed to build on that on her last two starts before a break; down the field at Clonmel last month; an intriguing amateur-ridden Closutton runner now.

Battled back gamely to make winning handicap hurdle debut here (2m3f, good) in May 2025; makes chasing debut after a 475-day absence but his Irish point success in 2024 bodes well for his prospects over fences.

Finished strongly from off the pace to cause 28-1 surprise over hurdles at Worcester (2m4f, good) in May but never got involved over same C&D the following month and will have something to prove if the ground is slower than good on this chasing debut.

Dramatic return to form in taking a 2m5f mares' handicap here last month (good); needs to back that up, but enjoyed passing horses late on that day and she ought to get a chance to do that again in this bigger field.

Sole win was over hurdles in 2021; hurtling down the weights this summer for new yard and some ability remains, including when back to chasing in first-time cheekpieces on latest start, so he's not entirely dismissed.

Won off lowly mark at Southwell (2m4f, good) in spring 2025 and was second over C&D (good) on next two outings but returned from layoff with disappointing chase run here in June and has been off for another three months since; others have more pressing claims.
