12st 0lb |
Won a competitive handicap chase at the 2024 festival for Henry de Bromhead (2m4f, good to yielding); hunter chase victory over Hunters Yarn at Gowran Park showed that he retains considerable ability; confirmed that impression when beating all bar star hunter Barton Snow at Aintree; goes well for Sophie Carter. |

Won a competitive handicap chase at the Punchestown festival in May 2024 for Henry de Bromhead (2m4f, good to yielding) and winning a hunter chase at Gowran Park (3m1f, heavy) last month showed that he retains considerable ability at the age of 11; firmly in calculations. |

Point winner in 2019 and showed a lot of ability during his time with Henry de Bromhead, the highlight when winning a valuable 2m4f handicap chase at the 2024 Punchestown festival; ran only twice last year; found a new lease of life when winning at Oldtown two weeks ago on debut for Mags Mullins; the capable Sophie Carter keeps the ride. |

Won maiden hurdle at this course in September 2024, went on to score at Grade 3 level; encouraging start to chasing career when second to Argento Boy at Punchestown in December; below that last time out when sixth here; down in trip and tried in cheekpieces on handicap chase debut off 3lb lower mark than over hurdles. |

Promise here on seasonal reappearance; failed to build on that on next four starts but signs of a revival when staying on for a 9.5l fourth back here (3m, heavy) on latest; blinkers could eke out more but he's 7lb wrong and looks up against it. |
