11st 5lb |
Useful on the Flat and over hurdles and he ran pretty well when second at Downpatrick in August on his sole chase start; he's also the only one who has run recently but he was tailed off on the Flat at Naas only on Sunday, and others in this race appeal as having greater potential. |

16th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 174y |
9st 8lb |
Rated 129 over hurdles and satisfactory chase debut when runner-up at Downpatrick last month; 6-28 on the Flat, his last win in this code gained at Dundalk (2m) in January 2025; inexperienced rider aboard; runner-up in this race in 2024 but only sixth last year. |

Rated 129 over hurdles and probably ran to about that mark when runner-up in a Wexford handicap hurdle earlier this month; makes his chasing debut here and clearly respected if his jumping holds up. |

Only one win from 17 turf starts on the Flat but placed seven times; this year's Flat form provides little encouragement, unplaced three times, though that includes twice at Dundalk where the surface has never brought out the best in her. |

0-13 over hurdles; ran on well for fourth on the Flat at Leopardstown (1m7f, good) on latest; well held on last start in this sphere at Galway just over a year ago but has placed off higher marks before so not discounted back over hurdles. |

Hurdle winner is a Flat maiden but has been largely consistent in defeat this term; a cracking run last time in the Apprentice Derby at the Curragh and should go well with a repeat. |

Veteran who is 12-115 under all codes; five-time course winner, four times over jumps; dual C&D winner, latest 12 months ago off 7lb higher; much below best last two vists here but dangerous to completely write off in a winnable race at a venue he loves. |

Ordinary form since joining this stable from Adrian Keatley for whom he won two handicaps on quick ground, back-to-back in April 2022; rated 72 at this peak, now down to 48; hard to be confident, but perhaps unwise to write him off. |
