3rd 11 |
1st May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 160y |
12st 0lb |
Smart staying handicap chaser in his prime; has found a new lease of life, winning two hunter chases at Thurles (beat Lifetime Ambition by 9l) and Naas (beat Hunters Yarn by 4l); might have found the ground a bit too quick when finishing fifth behind Barton Snow at Cheltenham; could play a featuring part. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Has always had some class about him and he went off only 11-1 for the Grand National two seasons ago; lost his way afterwards but he's back in the good books after winning two hunter chases and the RPR he posted at Naas last month (3m, heavy; fine on good ground) was up there with his best; with confidence seemingly buoyed he's a must for the shortlist. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 36y |
12st 0lb |
A good staying handicap chaser without ever winning one; twice placed in the Paddy Power at Leopardstown, fifth in the 2023 Irish Grand National, third in last season's Leinster National at this venue; third on point debut in November; responding well to a prominent ride at Thurles; 9l runner-up Lifetime Ambition (stablemate of Hunters Yarn) is a solid yardstick. |

1st 11 |
18th Jan 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 184y |
11st 7lb |
A good staying handicap chaser, though hard to win with (1-15), rated in the 140s at his peak; finished just in front of a below-par Its On The Line when third to Bartlemy Boy at Ballindenisk in November on his point-to-point debut. |

11th May 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Only win over fences came in a Punchestown beginners' in 2022; decent runs in defeat in valuable Leopardstown handicap chases in late 2023 and early 2024; solid effort when a 7l third of 14 in the Leinster National at Naas in March; needs more off his current mark. |
