12st 3lb |
Has a particular fondness for Killarney and won for the fifth time there three weeks ago, where he beat What Path by 1.5l over a slightly shorter trip; was just doing enough, so headgear back on; likes good ground. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Another in here with plenty of back-class; visored when disappointing at the Cheltenham Festival but that aid was missing when 15l behind Journey With Me at Cork, where 2m4f was on the sharp side; better expected here. |

Useful track performer at best with 3-4 record in points since last October; capable of better than he showed when fourth in a hunter chase run at Thurles in January; subsequently beat record-breaking pointer Winged Leader at Nenagh, with Whacker Clan a distant third; sights lowered after Cheltenham Festival bid. |

Wexford maiden hurdle winner (heavy) in 2021 but struggled in interrupted campaign in handicaps until much improved second at Killarney 11 days ago when splitting two in-form rivals on good ground; soft ground okay. |

Two chase wins in 2024 (including a novice over C&D) but it has been slim pickings since then; no joy in 2025 and modest run at Wexford on return from a break on latest; on a dangerous mark but needs a revival. |

11st 13lb |
Flat/hurdle winner for previous yards; ran his best race for this one when under 4l away behind a well-backed favourite at Killarney last month (2m1f, good), finishing alongside Presenting Lad; shouldn't be far away off the same mark. |

10st 4lb |
Best of three hurdle runs for new stable this season when second of five in soft-ground Leicester seller (2m4f) in December; reverts to this code after going close off his basement Flat mark three weeks ago but others have more compelling claims; first ride under rules for Elizabeth Feakes. |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Dual Flat winner and useful level of form over hurdles, including in handicaps and when third to Marine Nationale in Punchestown maiden in October when last seen; has since left Peter Fahey's yard and returns from six month's break on ground softer than ideal but major chance on his best form. |
