11st 2lb |
Free-going front-runner who eventually shook off a useful one at Naas last month (2m, yielding; has won on heavy) but her finishing can't be depended on beyond that trip, let alone on a stiff finish like today's; she may also have to share the early lead and looks an unlikely winner. |

8st 8lb |
Second runner for stable; formerly trained by Willie Mullins; best effort in eight starts for current yard a 8.75l seventh behind a few of his rivals here in the Q.R. race at Galway; burst blood vessels on latest start at Tramore; coming down the weights but yard has a better chance with Seddon. |

Looked to be on the slide until running well when seventh of 20 in the big amateur handicap at Galway where headgear (left off here) seemed to help; pulled up over hurdles later that week; first visit here. |

7th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 50y |

Veteran six-time winner; produced some good displays off much higher chase marks in 2025; continues to show plenty of zest, in front of Piccolo Player when third at Naas 13 days ago. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 7f 110y |

Veteran six-time winner; produced some good displays off much higher chase marks in 2025; weakened into a 19.5l third here last time (2m3f, heavy); 13l behind Peaceinthevalley on that occasion; hit the front early that day, so perhaps can get closer more patiently ridden. |

Last year's winner off 1lb lower but hasn't won since; below his best chasing this season, albeit set some stiff tasks; not discounted back hurdling but veteran will need to improve significantly. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful for Willie Mullins and ran pretty well over these fences in the 2023 Topham; following a long absence this 11yo hasn't been devoid of promise for his new yard, but needs to take a significant step forward. |

25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |

Very useful when trained in Ireland by Willie Mullins; kicked off for this yard after a long absence but ran well in that race at Taunton (2m5f, good) after wind surgery, finishing best of the rest behind the smart Unexpected Party; enters the reckoning. |

Infrequent winner is usually held up and needs a solid pace to run into; should at least have improved from his recent return and be involved if at best. |

10th Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 8lb |
Exaggerated hold-up tactics the norm with this horse and he has been mostly frustrating, most recently flattering briefly run-in but no match for a decisive winner at Naas in January; back from a break and while can never be ruled out, hard to be confident in all the same. |

Has landed some notable handicaps at 2m, including over C&D in October 2023; creditable third when attempting to repeat that success and has had a break since; might be vulnerable to younger legs. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
10st 4lb |
Winner here over hurdles and third chase win came in 2m2f Listowel handicap chase last September (off 116) after more than a year's absence; another good comeback run at Haydock in February, not so good at Kelso a fortnight later over shorter trip; this probably the limit of his stamina. |
10/1 |
|

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
12yo who has returned to his best this season, defying an absence to win at Listowel (2m1f, yielding to soft) in September before solid third at Haydock (2m4f, soft) a fortnight ago; the drop back in trip may well be a positive and he could be thereabouts. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Made light of a 13-month absence when landing 2m1f handicap chase at Listowel in September; 11lb higher today but that form worked out well so this Irish challenger can't be totally dismissed after another layoff. |
5/1 |
