Hasn't really threatened over fences or over hurdles this year; beaten 12l when fourth at Listowel on latest; dropped another 2lb and blinkers now tried; others make more appeal. |

Four wins over hurdles (rated 130), one of them here; maiden after 10 chase starts and has had jumping issues, but was second off 120 at Roscommon last summer; only beaten 7l in Champion Hunters Chase at Punchestown where he was a huge price. |

Both chase wins have been in 2m1f handicaps at Leopardstown; sights are lowered here after running in stronger company at that venue during the winter. |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |
10st 2lb |
Both chase wins have been here in 2m1f handicaps, notably a year ago in valuable Listed contest off 122 (yielding); yet to hit form this season however, mildly encouraging when attempting repeat win last month; bit to prove at the moment but step up in trip here could see improvement. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Had smart form when with Gordon Elliott before losing his way and selling for £3,000; fell midrace on stable debut but, with the cheekpieces back on, he outran odds of 100-1 to finish a fairly close third at Haydock (3m4f, good); if as good again here then he could have some say. |

Mostly campaigned in competitive staying chases when with Gordon Elliott and did not accomplish much this season; £3,000 buy in February but fell mid-race here 11 days ago on debut for new yard; cheekpieces (tried once) return; major questions to answer. |

Sole win came in Limerick maiden hurdle (2m, soft to heavy) in 2022; has failed to win in 13 attempts over fences; made a bad mistake four out at Thurles last time; may pick up a chase at some stage, but this company looks demanding. |

Ran a fine race in a fairly valuable handicap chase at Killarney last month; now 0-11 in chases but that wasn't the first time he ran well in defeat; recent rain a plus; top rated at 126 and leading chance back in a beginners'. |

Course 2m7f winner over fences; may have needed chase run early this month after a break; not without a chance despite a mark 6lb higher than his chase rating. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |

Comfortably justified favouritism at Punchestown last October (2m7f, good to yielding) when returned to fences, adding to his summer hurdles win at Galway; a long way below his best on heavy at Cheltenham in November; better at Leopardstown at Christmas; trainer has saddled the winner of this in two of the last three seasons; Aine O'Connor won it in 2017. |

His three hurdle wins came at Fairyhouse on good ground at 2m4f-3m but nothing since late 2024; some cracking runs in defeat though, including when third off this mark at Cork (3m, yielding); challenging for the lead when unseated at the third last at Wexford last time; down to an attractive mark. |

First reserve; sole win over fences came at Limerick (2m6f, yielding) in December 2024; ran well over hurdles off 2lb higher mark at Limerick on penultimate start; well held at Punchestown 124 days ago but badly hampered; chance after 124 days off. |

Won a novices' handicap chase at Limerick (22.5f, yld-sft) in December; raised 11lb and hasn't really threatened in four starts since; still only a 7yo and may have needed his last run so not dismissed, especially if money comes. |
