10st 13lb |
Sole win over fences came in 3m Mayo National in 2024 on good ground; good second in Galway Plate that summer but last year's form was poor; pulled up after never counting on return from long absence in Irish National; hard to be confident in although has ground to suit. |

Three wins over timber, the most recent at Galway in October 2023; two chase wins in 2025 but pulled up in that sphere on latest at Gowran a month ago; 4lb wrong back over hurdles; others preferred. |

Three-time winner over hurdles and came good over fences last August/September, winning twice including a 2m6f handicap at Listowel; only fair form since then, and this trip may prove inadequate. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Close second over fences at Catterick in January (1m7f, good) but mainly poor efforts since, the latest in a selling hurdle. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Three hurdle wins in Ireland during 2023 but a close second over fences at Catterick (about 1m7f, good) in January came from out of the blue and hasn't been repeated since; returns to hurdles with a cloud hanging over him. |

Seemingly back in good form when close second to short-odds favourite at Catterick (1m7f, good) on New Year's Day, his third start for Joanne Foster, but pulled up there twice since and now has it all to prove again; tongue-tie (worn on penultimate start) refitted. |

Ex-Irish pointer; good second in a Kelso novice handicap chase (2m7f, good) last autumn but has pulled up on his two outings since (reportedly bled latest); something to prove. |

11st 12lb |
Ex-Irish pointer; good second in a Kelso novice handicap chase in October (2m7f, good) but pulled up with cheekpieces tried last time; now has blinkers on for the first time and is back after a wind op; each-way chance. |

Exposed 6yo; went back pointing earlier this year when with Sam Curling, winning four of his six races all over 3m from good to yielding; bought for £32,000 in May and fair run when fourth at Perth in a handicap chase on stable debut last month (3m, good; third won next time); contender. |

10st 1lb |
Two handicap wins over hurdles, including over 3m; confirmed stamina with creditable third in 3m2f Wexford handicap chase in August; found wanting in a mares' beginners' chase at Tramore; sprang a surprise when making all to beat a shorter-priced stablemate in a 2m4f handicap at Naas last month; up 10lb for that but still on a handy weight. |
