24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Both wins on heavy, latterly a 2m chase at Leicester in February; creditable third at Plumpton next time but didn't jump well when remote fourth over 2m5f here (good to soft) four weeks ago; on the back of that the cheekpieces he's worn on his last five outings are replaced by a first-time visor. |

The ground was heavy for his hurdle win in Ireland (2m3f) and when scoring by 8l at Leicester two runs ago (2m), opening his chase account after wind surgery; ran okay off this 7lb higher mark at Plumpton (soft) latest but drying conditions might not be favourable. |

12st 0lb |
Course winner of a handicap chase in December, showing no ill-effects from an 11-month absence in beating a solid yardstick; in touch when falling two at Clonmel in January; could go well from a mark 7lb below her chase rating; talented 5lb claimer into the bargain. |

Won over this trip at Limerick (heavy) at the end of last season before a respectable fourth of 16 at Naas later that month and likeable reappearance effort back at Limerick over Christmas; may come on for that and warrants respect; wears a first-time tongue-tie. |

Interrupted campaign for mare who got off the mark over this trip at Gowran over a year ago off basement 80 mark in first-time cheekpieces; off a further year until never counting in midfield when attempting repeat win last month; entitled to come on for that. |
