2nd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Off the mark over fences on the ninth attempt at Killarney last time, responding well for pressure to run out a comfortable victor at the finish (2m7f, good); closely matched with Donnie Devito based on Galway beginners' chase meeting; cheekpieces may help him now and he looks a key contender despite a penalty. |

1st 6 |
21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 100y |
11st 12lb |
His hurdling form is right up there in this company; as good over fences despite being 0-8 in this discipline and he was a close fourth of 16 in a beginners at Galway (2m6f, good); barring mishaps, he'll be seriously involved. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 111y |
11st 12lb |
0-7 over fences; has been running well in defeat in beginners' events but his run in a handicap chase at Punchestown last time was not one of his best (2m, yielding); Kennedy chooses him but others make more appeal. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
11st 10lb |
Two chase wins including 2m6f handicap here in November (off 142) and at least as good form when staying-on fourth over same trip at the DRF; no match for stablemate Maxxum over 2m4f at Clonmel on latest; Jack Kennedy's pick. |
9/1 |

2nd 1 |
2nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Won for the second time over fences when taking a Punchestown handicap on return last November; fourth in a valuable Leopardstown handicap since but was below form at Cheltenham last time; seems to be the yard's second string on riding arrangements but still respected. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Nearer last than first in the novice handicap chase (extended 2m4f) at the Cheltenham Festival last March but he's a better horse now, having won at Punchestown (about 2m5f, soft to heavy) in November and been close up in a big field at Leopardstown under similar conditions last month; even more needed and he might prefer slower ground than is likely today; yard runs two. |

12th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 140y |
10st 5lb |
Won at Kilbeggan in May (20.5f, good) off 117 and far from disgraced off 122 in the Blazers at Galway (22.5f, good); below best in listed handicap chase at Killarney (2m5f) latest; could rebound returned to a right-handed track, though this trip might be sharp enough. |
11/2 |

9th 14 |
23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 180y |
10st 9lb |
Two-time winning hurdler; improved on two beginners' chase starts to win on handicap bow over fences at Kilbeggan in June off 117 (2m4f, good); solid runs in defeat the last twice following her victory, including a 4.75l sixth in a valuable Galway handicap chase last time (2m6f, good); in good form at the moment. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 3lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles; won this last year and he returns on the back of a narrow win at Clonmel (2m7f); has to enter the equation. |
6/1 |
|
1st 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Two-time chase (including here) and hurdling winner has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark on his last three starts; likes it here but remains 5lb above his last hurdles win and stamina to prove for this trip. |
18/1 |
|

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 45y |
11st 4lb |
Dual-hurdles and chase winner is rated 8lb lower over timber; very comfortable winner of a handicap chase at Kilbeggan in August (2m4f, good to yielding) but unable to follow up back over hurdles off lower mark at Killarney; set a tall task in a Grade 3 chase at Tipperary last time; not out of it at his best but seems to be better over fences. |

10st 6lb |
Dual hurdles winner with his last win coming in December 2023; reverts to hurdles, having been chasing in recent times with little success; finished a 13.5l fifth at Punchestown in June (2m3f, good to yielding) off 116 when last seen in this sphere; others preferred. |

29th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 145y |
10st 3lb |
Impressive handicap chase win at Limerick on latest (22.5f, good); now looks to exploit 12lb lower hurdles mark but hasn't won in this sphere since September 2023; in form, though, and can't discount. |
