1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 120y |
10st 7lb |
Long-standing maiden; back from a break with midfield efforts over hurdles at Down Royal and on chasing debut at Limerick (2m2f, good); trip and ground fine but needs to find improvement from somewhere. |

Ran respectably over hurdles when returning from a big layoff on most recent start, travelling okay but made a bad mistake at a crucial point; prior to that his form was mediocre; he could play a role if his first run over fences brings about some further improvement. |

Long standing, dual-purpose maiden; 0-23 over hurdles but has run well on multiple occasions, including here over 2m off this mark; out of his depth in a Grade 3 when falling on latest; this more suitable and while he is hard to win with, he has each-way claims. |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 7lb |
Second in last season's Jack Richards Handicap Chase at Cheltenham (2m5f, good to soft, 125-1); won a Kilbeggan beginners' chase in June, 2.25l in front of You Oughta Know; left two disappointing efforts behind when a creditable fourth of seven at Cheltenham in October (3m1f, good); back chasing after moderate hurdles run last time and Kennedy rides for the first time. |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |

Rallied well when 125-1 second in a 2m4f handicap chase at last year's Cheltenham Festival; he's since won a beginners chase in Ireland and ran respectably at Cheltenham last time on his second attempt at about 3m; needs to build on that in today's first hurdle race since August 2024. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |

Surprising that he appeared a non-stayer over 3m in last month's Kerry National as he looked all about stamina last season over 2m4f, including when a 125-1 second to Caldwell Potter in a handicap here in March; that's strong form and he's entitled to another chance at this trip. |

Tried chasing twice in Ireland and was an 11l second of 18 in a 2m handicap in one of those; only had three hurdle starts for Olly Murphy and the best was the opening one when second off 3lb lower at Worcester; has to be feared in a first-time tongue-tie. |

Ex-Irish 8yo; ran poorly at Uttoxeter last month and is now 0-21 over hurdles but was clear second to a progressive rival on stable debut at Worcester (2m, good to soft) two starts ago and has good claims if judged on that. |

0-22 under rules, but having been well supported he ran his best race so far when second of ten on stable debut at Worcester (2m, good to soft) last month (first and fourth have won since); up 5lb but still 1lb well in and shortlisted if building on that. |
