9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Probably acts on any going; high class over fences until jumping issues developed; has proved suited by the return to hurdles and an easy win at Leopardstown (2m2f) last time took his record in this sphere to 4-7; the best horse in this field if viewed on his peak chase form. |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 2f 72y |
11st 7lb |
Outstanding 2m novice chaser at his peak; became plagued by jumping frailties; fell in a number of Grade 1 contests; reverted to hurdles with a smooth 8.5l success at Punchestown on New Year's Day on seasonal return (2m3f, yielding), second won Gr.3 next time; this is much easier than the Irish Champion Hurdle (2m, heavy) last time, in which he finished last of five; huge chance. |

11st 12lb |
An outstanding 2m novice chaser at his peak; became plagued by jumping frailties; fell last season in Grade 1 races here, at Aintree and at Punchestown; return to hurdling did the trick at Punchestown a month ago, beating subsequent Grade 3 hurdle winner Glen Kiln and Cotswold Chase winner Spillane's Tower. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Two races this autumn (one a 2m4f Grade 2 from The Yellow Clay) were his first wins for ages and he wasn't disgraced on latest outing; third in the 2022 County and fifth in this race last year in his only two handicaps at this meeting, but he's higher in the weights today and is now an 11yo, so can't be the percentage call. |

8th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 5f 180y |
11st 8lb |
Win record has not reflected his ability for much of his career; only one success before this season's victories in a conditions race at Sligo and 2m4f Grade 2 at this venue; needs to bounce back now having been tailed off in the Long Walk at Ascot. |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 112y |
11st 12lb |
Just one win over hurdles but has been placed plenty of times including in graded races; was fifth in the Coral Cup before a fourth in a Fairyhouse Grade 2; was runner-up in this race last year after a similar absence so has to be respected as the top-rated in the field. |

Had failed to complete three times in a row before a much-improved display when fourth at Navan last month; any confidence regained then may have been dented by a first-fence fall at Leopardstown. |

Won four of his five races in the first half of last season, a bumper and three races over hurdles; disappointed when thrown in at the deep end for handicap debut in the County Hurdle; fell at fourth-last in the Galway Hurdle; followed that with a moderate run at Killarney in August; got his career back on course with a solid run at Punchestown on Monday. |
