Outran his 80-1 odds when third at Navan three weeks ago (2m4f, soft) but looks to have little margin for error off this mark. |

Better chaser albeit well below best twice in valuable handicaps in December and pulled up after never counting in valuable 3m Leopardstown handicap hurdle early this month; cheekpieces tried. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 210y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Won two Grade 1s in Ireland in spring 2024 during novice chase campaign (2m4f/3m1f, heavy/yielding) and posted first win since in the Grade 2 Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham (3m1f, soft) this January; he was receiving 6lb from close runner-up L'Homme Presse last time and others in this have achieved more, but he's only eight and could still have improvement to come. |
5/1 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 56y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Won two Grade 1s as a novice chaser, including over 3m1f at Punchestown in April 2024; no match for Galopin Des Champs in Punchestown Gold Cup 12 months later and he's been campaigned over shorter trips and hurdles since (not disgraced back at Punchestown on New Year's Eve); not easy to pin down but he should be suited by this return to fences and 3m+. |

30th Mar 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 4f 120y |
10st 0lb |
Two wins over hurdles but 0-6 chasing on soft ground, reportedly struck into at Gowran last time; some encouragement at same track previously; longer trip and better ground could see improvement; 1lb wrong. |

8th Mar 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y |

Two wins over hurdles; pulled up in a handicap hurdle at last season's Punchestown festival; ran prominently in a 2m4f handicap chase here on return, had weakened before falling two out. |

15th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 10lb |
Two-time hurdles winner is 0-4 over the bigger obstacles; reverts to chasing after two poor efforts over timber; pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown when last seen in May 2024 in first-time cheekpieces (discarded); rated 6lb lower over fences but he's hard to fancy. |

11th Nov 2024 Good 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who is only 1-11 over fences, the win gained at Ffos Las (2m3f; stable debut) in May; has failed to back up that form in two subsequent starts (had further wind surgery since latest) and looks more exposed than these rivals. |

28th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo who was given a wind op before winning quite stylishly on stable debut at Ffos Las (2m3f, good) in May; disappointed when favourite to follow up at Bangor last month but could plausibly still have more improvement to come for this stable; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |

Bumper and maiden hurdle winner on decent ground; beaten around 30l in two novice chase starts after a year off; slotted into handicap company quite encouragingly when a staying-on third over 2m1f at Leopardstown 17 days ago; should be thereabouts. |
