11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Very smart 3m-winning chaser for Gordon Elliott in 2024/25; also scored over fences for current yard at Perth (3m) in April but beat just one when tried in cheekpieces in 2m4f handicap chase at Uttoxeter 18 days ago; reverts to hurdles off a 7lb lower mark but still has something to prove. |
7/1 |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Classy customer in these colours for Gordon Elliott; only his fourth run for current yard when forcing a dead-heat at Perth (3m, good; 3lb lower) and he's versatile trip-wise; likely contender in new cheekpieces. |

14th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 3f 168y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Has raced only on softer than good; ran well (fourth) in the Albert Bartlett over 3m here 12 months ago but failed to show his form when back at similar trip on latest chase start; promising record at 2m4f over fences, winning twice then solid third in Grade 1; however, he's the wrong age according to the stats (no horse older than eight has won this prize). |

held up in rear, headway and went third before 5 out, raced wide from 3 out, outpaced approaching last |

3rd 3 |
13th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 1f 60y |
11st 9lb |
Has seemingly improved for a fence and a step up in trip to 2m4f this season; ran with credit in the Drinmore here when last seen; has more to give over fences but a return to this sort of trip is the main question mark; not one to put a line through. |

Maiden posted her best chase run here in 2023; pulled-up on return from long absence last time and makes no appeal. |

20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 0y |

18-race maiden who has changed stable since her last run in August 2024; makes no appeal after such a long absence. |

11th Aug 2024 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
17-race maiden who has tried chasing; only midfield on return to hurdling at Wexford and she's not overly appealing with top weight. |

Doyen mare; half-sister to winners Theo (2m-2m4f hurdle/useful chase), Westbury (bumper) and Captain Lob (2m hurdle); dam unraced sister to bumper/useful 2m4f hurdle winner Leinster; tough ask for a newcomer. |

Reserve; had some decent form a few season's ago but was pulled-up lame on return from a long absence and has to bounce back from that. |
