1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 35y |
11st 12lb |
Two chase wins for Henry de Bromhead in 2022 but lost form after; poor in points latest starts; can only be watched. |

18th Aug 2024 Good 2m 6f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Back-to-back chase wins (including here) before long absence; took a heavy mid-race fall on his return in the Killarney National and then pulled up after never counting at Wexford; cheekpieces now fitted and Blackmore prefers Garde La Peche. |

24th Jul 2024 Good 3m 1f 110y |
11st 13lb |
Back-to-back chase wins (non-handicaps) before a long absence; took a heavy mid-race fall on his return in the Killarney National (3m2f) for which he was an 11-1 chance; could still be open to further improvement. |

18th Mar 2023 Soft 4m 2f 8y Class 1 |
10st 8lb |
Has National honours having won the Cork version in November (3m4f, soft/heavy); it's been a sorry state of affairs since then with four non-completions and, while his trainer can work wonders, he's not overly appealing with that background. |

19th Feb 2023 Yielding To Soft 3m 4f 40y |
10st 9lb |
Beat Defi Bleu in the Munster National, now 10lb higher; let down by his jumping over the National fences in the Becher and in the Paddy Power; reportedly made a noise when pulled up in the Thyestes; not a betting proposition against that background. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 107y |
11st 8lb |
Six-time winner over jumps (five of those coming over hurdles); getting on in years now, but holds a good chance on current form; not a bad effort on the Flat at Tramore before two decent handicap hurdle runs, third over 2m3f at Kilbeggan and second over 2m1f at Wexford. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 180y |
11st 6lb |
Six-time winner over jumps (five of those coming over hurdles); getting on in years now, but not a bad effort on the Flat at Tramore over 2m before a good third of 12 at Kilbeggan (2m3f, good to yielding); her last win in this discipline came last year off 105 at Navan (2m, heavy). |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 7lb |
Ran okay on the Flat 17 days ago and better known as a six-time winner over jumps; not as good as she was, though. |

3rd Sep 2022 Good 2m 4f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Two seconds this season came either side of being pulled-up at Galway where he never recovered from being hampered three from home; will need to improve on his Downpatrick showing and this isn't any easier. |
