22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 80y |
11st 10lb |
First and second in the last two runnings of the Grand Annual at Cheltenham; slightly unlucky in a valuable handicap hurdle at Aintree when last seen; still potentially well handicapped over hurdles and should be a leading player; has won over 2m5f over fences. |
4/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Better over fences; stays 2m5f; had wind surgery prior to the latest Cheltenham Festival (2m, good) where he very nearly recorded a second success in the Grand Annual; not guaranteed to transfer the form back to hurdles but he is attractively treated off a much lower mark in this sphere. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 140y |
11st 4lb |
Won a beginners' chase over C&D (good) in August 2024; dual-purpose sort has failed to add to his tally since and he is best on good ground; fit from the Flat but needs the track to dry out. |

12th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Three-time Flat winner; had a run in a novice chase before competing from out of the handicap at Naas on return to the Flat; this is a more realistic task, but trainer may have a better chance with Cleopatra's Needle. |

8st 7lb |
Three-time Flat winner; had a recent run in a novice chase but all of his best form in both codes is on good ground and he's 8lb wrong here; yard has stronger contender with Grann's Boy. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 95y |
11st 4lb |
2-16 over fences but hasn't won since November 2024; excellent effort to finish a 5.5l third at Galway (18.5f, good) and filled the same position at Tramore (2m6f, good) latest when beaten 11.5l; frame claims again off the same mark. |

16th Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 0y |

Dual chase winner was second over hurdles at Killarney in May and ran a cracker back over fences at Galway last time; looks a big player down 2lb and in grade. |

3rd 11 |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 54y |

Disappointing in Mayo National at Ballinrobe and held by a couple of these on latest Wexford fifth; crack conditional being on board will help his chance, and is back down to a nice mark. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 70y |
11st 6lb |
Course novice hurdle winner; hampered on two occasions when pulled up on Limerick return in May; lying second when falling two out here two weeks ago, worth considering in a weak race. |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 3m 1f 110y |
12st 0lb |
Novice hurdle winner here (3m) who went up 8lb for 2m6f Fairyhouse lady riders chase win in November (yielding); jumping issues when fifth of 17 to Sequestered at Leopardstown in December; hampered on two occasions (by left-jumping Ceroc) when pulled up on Limerick return in May so that run probably forgiven. |

1st Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y |
9st 4lb |
127-rated chaser; ended a long losing run when winning a valuable handicap at Limerick last December; has found things too demanding since, pulled up in the Galway Blazers last time. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
11st 0lb |
Ended a long losing run when winning a nice pot at Limerick in December (2m3f, sft-hvy) off 4lb lower; modest efforts in three starts since and probably hasn't much wriggle room off current mark but has gone well here before, will like the ground and preferred by Cobden. |

Maiden posted a decent effort when was beaten 8l over C&D last time; down 2lb and can be involved. |

9th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 100y |

Maiden has yet to really make an impact in handicap chases; fifth and fourth the last twice but beaten 18l and 28l respectively; down another 2lb but might need a little bit more respite from the handicapper. |

7th Aug 2024 Good 2m 3f 130y |

Weak form over hurdles (rated 85); has struggled in his first two runs over fences; no appeal on first outing since last November. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Gained first chase win over C&D (good) just 17 days ago, bolting up by 11l; on the face of it, a 6lb rise for that looks a shade lenient but it probably wasn't the strongest of races and this is tougher; likes it here but needs to improve again to follow up. |
5/2 |

1st 9 |
22nd Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 155y |
10st 10lb |
Dual hurdle winner including once here, is 0-14 over fences but has been placed lots of times including third in this race last year; pulled-up over hurdles last time but a player if rebounding. |
12/1 |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |
11st 9lb |
Dual hurdles winner was poor at Wexford in April off 4lb higher (2m4f, good to yielding) but rebounded over fences back there last time when a distant second of 11 (3m2f, good to yielding); can't be ruled out but others are more appealing. |
