2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 11lb |
Bumper and two-time hurdle winner; 0-15 chasing but has run well in defeat at times, most notably over 3m6f at the Cheltenham Festival in 2025 and when a neck second to Better Times Ahead in the Porterstown at Fairyhouse in November (yielding); out of sorts in four runs since however so big upturn in performance required but 13lb better off with Better Times Ahead now, plus rider's claim. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
11st 11lb |
Bumper and two-time hurdle winner; 0-14 in chases but has run well in defeat at times, most notably over 3m6f at the Cheltenham Festival in 2025 and when a neck second in the Porterstown here last November (3m6f, yielding); out of sorts in three runs since, though, and needs to rediscover best. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 201y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
0-13 now as a chaser but third in this race last year off 5lb lower; that was his best form last term and he's shown it only once since, when beaten a neck at Fairyhouse (3m6f, yielding to soft) in November; that was also his only long-distance assignment this term, so he could return to form with this step back up in trip; others are preferred for the win even so. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
10st 8lb |
Won for the second time over hurdles when taking a 3m Galway handicap last August; however, is 8lb higher today in a stronger race and has to be at his best on return. |

3rd Aug 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y |
11st 11lb |
Won a 2m maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe in 2023 for Tom Gibney; needs to improve on this year's handicap form and he is not certain to get this trip as effectively as some of these rivals. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
10st 8lb |
Faded into sixth at Punchestown (3m7f) last May on his only attempt at a marathon trip; worth another go, having rallied so well to win a major 3m handicap at Navan in November, but it's a little hard to ignore that clearly his best five ratings have been registered on soft or heavy going, as have all his four wins. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 2f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Off the mark over fences at the third attempt off 130 at Naas last January (2m4f, soft); failed to make an impact at Cheltenham and faded from two out at Punchestown in a 3m7f handicap; produced in fine shape to win the Troytown on reappearance (3m, heavy); showed up well for a long way before fading from two out in the Theyestes last time (3m1f, heavy); can get involved |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y |

Got off the mark over fences at the third attempt off 130 at Naas last January (2m4f, soft); failed to make an impact in the Jack Richards at Cheltenham; faded from two out in Punchestown festival handicap over a near-4m trip; produced in fine shape to win the Troytown on reappearance, beating Yeah Man and earning a 9lb hike in the ratings; can remain competitive. |

2nd May 2023 Yielding 2m 5f 30y |
11st 4lb |
Second reserve; was sold for 100,000GBP after finishing second in a point' last year; disappointing as 6/4 fav' in a Cork bumper on debut for this yard but can improve from that and would have to be seriously considered if getting a run. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Won in July off 7lb higher (3m, good; first-time tongue-tie) but hasn't approached level in his subsequent races; not easily trusted. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
4lb below his winning mark and the fourth over C&D in July was more encouraging; brought down mid-race at Uttoxeter latest. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Returned from layoff with two poor performances last month but his fourth behind Red Panda at Worcester (2m7f, good) three weeks ago was much more encouraging and he's now 4lb lower than for last year's 3m Perth win; big player if first-time cheekpieces help him to build on that recent effort. |

On long losing run; pulled up on final start of last season and again on seasonal return at Fairyhouse in November; heavy defeat on his return from a 127-day break at Cork nine days ago; others appeal more. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 15y |

No win since October 2023; pulled up on final start of last season over C&D (soft) and similar outcome on seasonal reappearance at Fairyhouse in November; off since and best watched for now. |

20th Apr 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 80y |
11st 9lb |
1-14 over hurdles, the win coming over 2m7f in October 2023 off 109; bounced back to form when a 4.75l second on latest over C&D good ground; that wasn't his first good run here but the forecast rain is a worry, place chance again if it misses. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
10st 0lb |
Two hurdle wins arrived in 2024 on heavy ground; beaten 27l over fences at Clonmel (2m7f, soft) in April, but he was only 2l down when falling at the second last hurdle here (2m4f, soft to heavy) later that month; 3lb wrong. |

16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 3f 60y |
10st 11lb |
Dual-winning hurdler has largely struggled this term and was pushed along vigorously over fences on latest at Clonmel; Jack Kennedy has been booked though, so he's worth a market check. |
