14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Capable of useful form over fences in Ireland for Gordon Elliott but he's still to score in this sphere and has offered little for his new yard, jumping sketchily when pulled up in 3m Doncaster handicap three weeks ago; plenty more is required despite a tumbling mark. |

Ex-Irish 6yo; last of five finishers at Newbury (2m6f) on debut for new yard, taking chase record to 0-7; needs improvement to defy top weight. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 11lb |
In excellent form in 2026; beaten a head at Ayr in March (2m, soft); won easily over this C&D (good) early last month; denied by a neck at Cartmel (2m6f, good) on latest; 12lb higher now than when successful here but can give another good account. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 4 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Last two visits to Britain resulted in a win at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) last June and a narrow loss at Ayr (2m, soft) this March; won well at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) 15 days ago and all three of those runs were under Oran McGill; needs plenty of respect despite his steeply revised mark. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
12st 4lb |
Justified market support at Hexham this time last year (2m4f, good to soft) to open his account; poor in two chase runs in October, but was again well backed at Ayr in March when denied by a head in a first-time tongue tie (2m, soft, 9-4 fav'); return to further can help; big player. |

7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Two wins in 2024 but has been in the handicapper's grip since; not a bad run at Fairyhouse latest (1m2f, good) but still beaten 8l and didn't look to be crying out for this longer trip; down in grade but others appeal more. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 210y |

Useful form in 2024, winning over a mile at Punchestown and Dundalk; failed to prosper last year and lots to find on two efforts this term; tries this longer trip again. |

C&D winner off 2lb lower last summer (soft) and some respectable runs in the meantime; the latest at Perth wasn't one of them but he's hard to rule out. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |

Winner off 3lb lower at Cartmel last summer (2m6f, soft); two good runs this year, latest when third in a stronger race at Wetherby (3m, good to soft); chance down in grade. |

Won at Cartmel (2m6f, soft) last July and he's worked his way back to form, finishing third of eight at Catterick (3m1f, soft) in January; faces tougher opposition today, however, and needs another step forward. |

4th Sep 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Was in the process of running a big race when coming down late at Cork on her return and gained compensation in 2m2f Downpatrick maiden in July, battling well after making much of running; missed two engagements since due to softer ground so won't want too much rain. |

Verdict
Plenty of dead wood in this contest and not many count. This could be the chance for HEY WHATEVER(nap) after her unlucky defeat at Listowel last week and she can confirm placings with third-placed Harsh. Nakassama can contend on his earlier form while the ground is a question for Alalcance. [Justin O’Hanlon]
