2nd May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 118y |
10st 0lb |
Smart form as a younger horse but on losing run since Grade 2 success at Limerick in December 2022; a step in the right direction in a 2m Cork conditions hurdle on latest but he's unproven at this trip; 4lb wrong and hard to fancy. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 70y |
11st 2lb |
Smart form in his younger days, including a Grade 2 win, but has lost his way; soundly beaten at Leopardstown last time when well behind Soir De Garde and he's poorly treated by these race conditions. |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 2f 72y |
11st 2lb |
Won a Grade 2 in 2022 (2m, heavy); has struggled since then; more likely to return to winning ways in a handicap; looks out of his depth here with blinkers replacing previously work cheekpieces. |

8st 7lb
|
Third reserve; dual-purpose sort who has two wins on the level, his last win coming in a Galway festival premier handicap in 2023 off 82 (1m4f, good to yielding); not far behind at the Curragh in June (16.5f, good) but well beaten over hurdles the last two times and 3lb wrong. |

8th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 129y |
11st 0lb |
Course winner on the Flat; rated 132 but no win over hurdles since November 2022; ran well on the level at the Curragh in June but beaten 17l on return to this sphere at Kilbeggan last month; others make more appeal. |
8/1 |
