3rd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 0y |

Won over this trip at Cork in 2024 and only five runs since, three of them chases; soundly beaten back hurdling at Cork the last twice and has to rebound. |

20th Apr 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 80y |
10st 12lb |
1-9 over hurdles, the win coming off 96 over C&D last March by 2.25l and 10lb higher now; sent chasing to no avail since, unseating on latest at Clonmel; return to hurdles and this venue could spark a revival; testing ground fine; can't discount. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 140y |
11st 0lb |
Five wins under Rules, with four coming at this venue; has won the last two renewals of this race, on good and gd-yld, but handles softer conditions; below best when last seen in December but goes well fresh and return to his favourite track could spark a revival; dangerous to dismiss. |

31st Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 70y |
11st 7lb |
Two-time winner has failed to complete all four starts since returning from a 496 day layoff; on last winning mark now but a risky proposition. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 165y |

Dual winning hurdler has returned from a 496-day break with letters representing her three form figures since; pulled up at Punchestown before falling here when in midfield (2m5f, yielding to soft); pulled up again at Punchestown last time; best watched for the moment. |

11st 5lb |
Progressive 3m handicap hurdler in 2023-24 season on soft/heavy, winning once at Punchestown off 89; chasing career hasn't gone to plan and was pulled up reverted to hurdles at Limerick on his penultimate run (3m, soft to heavy); best watched until he shows some spark. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 165y |
12st 0lb |
Leopardstown handicap hurdle winner in March 2024 (3m, soft to heavy); still in contention when falling at Cork on second chase start in November (2m5f, yielding); tailed off at Down Royal last time (2m4f, good to yielding); may do better in these conditions on handicap chase debut. |

Three wins include over this trip at Cork in May on testing ground off 1lb lower; veteran needs to improve on recent form but don't rule out. |

25th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 100y |
10st 13lb |
All three wins under rules have come in handicap hurdles at Cork, the latest over 3m in March but shown little in two runs since (over fences latest); 2m4f on quicker ground might not be ideal for him these days. |
