1st Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Won last year's Galway Plate; Grade 2 winner over 2m4f at this venue last October; ended last season's novice chasing campaign with a surprise success in a 3m1f Grade 1 contest at the Punchestown festival; has a stamina-laden jumps pedigree and may lack the pace of some of these rivals. |

Three Flat wins on nice ground in Scandinavia; can be keen and looked a bit tricky when second on hurdles debut; jumped poorly when third to useful stablemate at Naas; might be too fresh after the layoff but will enjoy the ground. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
11st 4lb |
Two-time hurdle winner landed a first chase success in a Leopardstown beginners' last month (21.5f, yielding) with Killaney King over 7l back in third; has won at this trip over hurdles and his opening chase mark looks fair; ground fine too and could go well. |

3rd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |

Lightly raced; 2-7 over hurdles, both wins at Limerick, appreciating a return to hurdles in December when scoring decisively off 112 (3m, soft to heavy); fair fourth at Gowran in January; two chase attempts raise a concern, jumped badly at Fairyhouse, fell at Cork. |

Winner of a 2m5f Roscommon handicap hurdle in 2024 off 92; okay efforts in his opening two runs this season but recent runs are below that level; this is just his second chase start, with his only other seeing him tailed off at Clonmel in a 2024 handicap. |

20th Sep 2024 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 5lb |
One of two runners for yard; has shown ability over timber and was second in a Sligo maiden hurdle in July; was still in with a chance when falling in a handicap hurdle at Wexford on latest; is related to a couple of chase winners and is in good hands; leading claims if her jumping holds up. |

Improved steadily in four runs over hurdles; came on for reappearance at Downpatrick when beaten 2.5l by Torquay Road at Sligo (2m1f) 33 days ago; seems a lenient mark on handicap debut and she's a leading contender. |

Four hurdle wins including at this track; the best of four chase runs came when third to Oscars Brother in a Galway beginners'; poor since but is capable of better, so not dismissed. |

26th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 111y |

Won four of 11 starts over hurdles including a Pertemps qualifier at Leopardstown last Christmas; down the field in the Final at Cheltenham; staying type, should make a useful chaser in time. |

Barely sighted when only 8-1 for the Pertemps Final but had won four of his previous seven over hurdles including a qualifier for that race at Leopardstown; finds himself 10lb higher but likely that he has more in the locker. |

11st 12lb |
Had jumping issues and struggled in Hexham chase on last month's stable debut; now 5lb lower than when placed over hurdles at Stratford (2m2f, good) on final start for Daisy Hitchins but still has something to prove. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |

Two handicap hurdle wins for Daisy Hitchins last year (1m7f/2m3f, good to soft) included one off 8lb higher, and an inconsistent profile since the autumn does at least include a Tapeta Flat success and a serviceable chase debut; some positives ahead of stable debut. |
