14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who is 2-2 since returning from lengthy absence and switched to chasing, latest win at Kelso (2m5f, heavy); bred to be as effective over this longer trip; respected with further progress plausible. |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Promising novice hurdler in 2023-24 campaign and it was his first run since when winning on chase debut at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month; did it nicely and could take an 8lb rise in his stride if backing up that performance. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
0-7 under rules but ran quite well on chasing debut here (3m, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) in March and switched back to hurdling with clear second over C&D (good) last month; moves up from Class 5 today but still features prominently in calculations. |

20th May 2025 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Yet to win over hurdles; creditable third of five in a 3m handicap on chase debut here in first-time cheekpieces off this mark last time (good to soft); headgear retained now back hurdling. |

7th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Front-runner who won two handicap chases in a row last summer (2m1f, soft/good) before easy novice hurdle win at Bangor (2m3f, good); however, he hasn't been at his best on his three runs since and has to bounce back. |

17th Jul 2024 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Placed behind the subsequent Punchestown Festival winner Daddy Long Legs at Ludlow (2m novice; 80-1) in April; raced keenly and weakening out of contention when hampered and unseated rider on handicap debut at Bangor (2m, good) last month; 3lb lower; improvement necessary. |

28th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who showed promise with his third behind a Willie Mullins-trained hotpot in Ludlow novice (2m, good) in April; open to more progress now switched to handicapping and he needs a close look in market. |
13/2 |

3rd 3 |
24th Apr 2024 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Ran respectably behind a fairly useful rival on final attempt in Irish points; has plenty to find on his two hurdles efforts, however, and may be more interesting in handicaps shortly. |

Showed no significant promise at huge prices in three novice/maiden hurdles (2m-2m3f) towards end of last season; significant improvement is needed on this handicap debut. |
