Thorough stayer who came second in the 2023 Grand National; not very consistent nowadays but did very well to finish third behind Stumptown in this race last year (good to soft), having lost ground when nearly taking the wrong course in early stages, and returns here after a win on Bank course at Punchestown (3m1f, soft to heavy) last month. |

Veteran has been competing quite effectively in points; however, could manage only a moderate fourth in an incident-packed Fairyhouse race won by Five Star Getaway. |

Veteran is 3-19 over fences; won off 121 at Down Royal (3m, gd-yld) in January; pulled up next two starts then beaten 16.5l off this mark on latest at Punchestown; likes going right-handed but others hold more pressing claims. |

11st 1lb |
Produced a tired unseat at the final fence when 10-11 over 3m6f at Cheltenham in March 2020 on his only attempt at a long-distance chase; absent 1022 days before this season but short-head win from Dunboyne in the Thyestes at Gowran (3m1f, soft to heavy) showed he's as good as ever, a game effort too but he needs to bounce back from a lesser show one month later. |

Dual Grade 3 winner as a novice came back from a long absence this season, winning the Thyestes Chase on his second start back; is more effective on soft ground but handles this too; Townend prefers Kemboy but still a major player. |

26th Jan 2023 Soft 3m 1f 0y |

Smart bumper and hurdles performer won his first three races over fences in 2019/20; beaten in third when unseating at the last in the 2020 National Hunt Chase; considering prolonged absence, did well to hold his place until nearing the closing stages of the Paddy Power; arguably leading hope now for the champion trainer who has won this four times in the last nine years. |

11st 0lb |
Former Grade 2 novice winner; needed the run at Clonmel in November after a lengthy absence; put in an encouraging display when third in the Thyestes; let down by his jumping in the Bobbyjo Chase, ending up a long way behind Now Where Or When who is rated 17lb inferior to him. |

25th Feb 2023 Yielding 3m 1f 110y |

Classy sort has endured absences from action in the last two seasons but showed he is as good as ever with two solid runs this term; is closely matched with Carefully Selected on Thyestes running but best form is on softer ground. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
26th Jan 2023 Soft 3m 1f 0y |

Took well to fences 2020/21 season, winning 2m6f Grade 2 at Punchestown and second in Limerick Grade 1 event; ran only once last season; struggled in good company in the Clonmel Oil Chase on return, but will be a lot sharper now; first-time cheekpieces, as well as tongue-tie worn before; rider's claim a major plus-factor. |

11st 4lb |
Won three times from the front (once over C&D) last season and lost out only narrowly in refitted cheekpieces at Plumpton (3m1f, good) a fortnight ago but this veteran is nothing like the force of old, and might find this race to competitive. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Veteran chaser who landed his third win of the season, over C&D (soft) in February when getting the better of Lumi Plugin; found the Sussex National back here 13 days ago a tad too competitive but cannot be dismissed here back in the right grade. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 104y Class 2 |

Three wins in small fields this season (2m5f-3m5f, good/soft) and another good run when second of three at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) recently; however, there's a suspicion this 12yo will find today's race too competitive. |

Only made one appearance after chasing home stablemate Run Wild Fred in this race last year, falling at the sixth last in the Irish National; not easy task on return from 223-day absence to shoulder big weight (2lb higher than his mark here 12 months ago) but experienced conditional's 5lb claim a help. |
