0-8 over regulation fences and this year's pointing exploits are nothing to shout about, last time finishing well behind Revolut Ned. |

Former Irish pointer/hunter chaser; looked badly out of sorts in handicap chases for new stable last season (four starts) and it takes a big leap of faith to support him on this hurdle debut; had wind op last month; swaps visor for refitted blinkers. |

Very experienced pointer, two wins and often placed; makes little appeal in this company at this stage of her career. |

8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 150y |
11st 5lb |
Point and hunter chase winner; latest third at Tramore (hunter chase) was quite remote; opposable back in a handicap. |
33/1 |

3rd 4 |
20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 160y |
12st 0lb |
Veteran with modest strike rate in points (1-19); sprang a 33-1 shock in this race last year; likely to be available at big odds again; out of the money in his last two starts in points. |
33/1 |

31st May 2025 Good 2m 6f 0y |

1-17 in point-to-points, the win coming in 2022; gained first chase win from the front in C&D hunter chase last month; likely to come up short back in a handicap. |

Never better than seventh in five maiden hurdle runs; won a maiden point at Comea in February after a year off; however, that was a weak race, and he has struggled in two hunter chase outings; in the right yard (11 wins in this event since 1997), but otherwise hard to make a case. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 3lb |
Dual hunter chase winner did fine in handicaps last term, placed on three occasions including when going close at Leopardstown (2m5f) in March; although flattered, it was a nice run in a Listowel conditions event last time and can go well off a light weight with good ground no issue. |

Two-time chase winner, encouraging run when beaten 0.5l behind Harbour Highway at Leopardstown (2m6f, yielding) in March before well-held fourth at Fairyhouse 41 days ago; ground should suit and place claims. |

11st 1lb |
Point-to-point winner got off the mark under Rules on returning from summer break in 2m7f Ballinrobe handicap chase in September (soft) and solid third at Killarney following month; runs well fresh so lack of a recent run not so much a concern. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 120y |
11st 9lb |
Point-to-point (3m) and Killarney maiden hurdle (20.5f) winner; may have needed the run on handicap chase debut when beaten 19.5l at Tramore (2m6f, gd-yld) a month ago but suspicion this trip may be on the sharp side. |

31st May 2025 Good 2m 6f 0y |

Comes with a point-to-point background; showed nice level of improvement over hurdles to ultimately win 20.5f Killarney maiden; ran a nice race on handicap debut when last seen off 16lb higher hurdles mark; 239-day absence; player. |

Was having his eighth point-to-point start when landing a maiden at Comea last month; this is more demanding but he comes from a top yard, and Susie Doyle is leading the race for the women riders' point-to-point title; tongue-tie and cheekpieces. |
