Won handicap chase here last summer; well backed for return but never recovered from bad error; workable mark but very best form has come on soft. |

Bumper/hurdle/chase winner who was runner-up in this 12 months ago and filled the same position over C&D when last seen in September; goes on all ground and good chance provided she's ready to rock after a lengthy break. |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Seven-time winner over hurdles/fences; won twice at this venue last July; likely to show the benefit of a recent hurdles run at Limerick; noteworthy on account of his ability to handle the track; good chance with a top claimer aboard. |

10st 9lb |
Seven-time winner over hurdles/fences and hasn't been out of the first three in his last six starts around here; three wins over fences last year; disappointing favourite over hurdles at Cork but returns from a break racing from 14lb lower hurdles mark; should go well. |
3/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Winner of seven races including three this year; those three wins have come in handicap chases, including a 3l victory at Limerick (2m3f, yld-sft) on latest off 109; rated 103 in this sphere and 2m is fine so can't be discounted on return to hurdling. |

Long-standing maiden; placed on stable debut over hurdles at Fairyhouse in January but not as good since; only modest handicap chase form for previous handler and making first chase start for Cian Collins. |

Bagged his two chase wins in 2023 at around 2m1f at Limerick and Ballinrobe, with his latest win coming off 12lb higher; out of form this year and change of stable didn't help much when tailed off at Ballinrobe latest. |

Knocking on the door in recent starts; beaten 2.75l when fourth of 16 off this mark in a 0-100 at Fairyhouse on latest; this is harder so the new blinkers will need to eke out more if he is to get his head back in front. |
