10st 6lb |
Veteran; five-time chase winner including three over C&D; last won here last August off 99 and 3lb lower now; recent efforts have been underwhelming, however, and blinkers are reached for. |

Old boy has won 12 races in all under both codes, mostly from the front; C&D winner in 2024 and was placed over 1m4f last year, but he's pushing on now and tailed off over fences last time. |

Veteran pulled up on first start for this yard at Clonmel in December but has a fine record here (four wins, three over fences) and is just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D last August; ground versatile and can't discount. |

In good form over 1m4f at Dundalk last November, notching a win and a second; fit from hurdling; 1-14 on turf, sole win gained over 1m4f at Leopardstown last May; fine effort over this trip when second at the Listowel festival. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 146y |

27th May 2025 Good 2m 6f 63y |

Dual-purpose maiden; 0-9 over hurdles; didn't get the clearest of runs when a 7.25l third of 15 at Sligo last time out; ran well over this C&D a year ago when a 1l second of 16 off 5lb lower; rain would be a worry, chance if it misses. |

11st 12lb |
Dual-purpose sort; a winner of six races on the Flat, including the Cork Derby on latest (1m4f, soft) on first run back after a break; 4-28 over hurdles and rated 120; makes a belated chase debut at the age of nine but not bred for this discipline; in good form right now though and can't be discounted. |

19th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |

Took him an age to get off the mark, but fine strike-rate under rules since the start of 2023, all five Flat wins coming over this trip and upwards, including readily beating Not Just Any Eagle 5l at Fairyhouse (1m6f) in July; tame effort on Wolverhampton AW later in month but still very much respected on return from a break. |
