15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 11lb |
Won maiden hurdle at this course in September 2024, went on to score at Grade 3 level; encouraging start to chasing career when second to Argento Boy at Punchestown in December; below that last time out when sixth here; down in trip and tried in cheekpieces on handicap chase debut off 3lb lower mark than over hurdles. |

Not the most consistent sort but enters calculations on last month's second over 2m at this venue, when those behind included King Kali (fourth) who was returning after a lengthy absence; three seconds from his last five starts, but lesser displays in between; blinkered first time. |

Dual-purpose; sole success over hurdles came off 3lb lower at Bellewstown (2m1f, gd-yld) in April 2024 for Gavin Cromwell; yet to really hit form for this stable, though did run ok over 2m4f here in August; drops in trip and place chance if repeats that off 3lb lower. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Poor strike-rate and both wins were in Ireland; mostly consistent in small-field chases this season and the return of blinkers is a probable plus after trying a visor last time; has been running over shorter but stays this far; versatile ground-wise. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Yet to add to his two Irish hurdle wins in 2021 but consistent in small-field chases this season, with best run arguably his second of five at Uttoxeter (2m, good) two starts ago; swaps usual blinkers for first-time visor; will probably be on the premises again. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |

Returned from a break with a 28-1 win at Killarney (22.5f, good) and raised 5lb for that; won over C&D at this meeting two years ago off 92; will need a career best off this mark but that's not impossible. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 80y |

Is 3-16 over hurdles, all of the wins coming on soft; her last win came in a 2m4f Limerick Christmas mares' hurdle off 116; tailed off at Naas following that and again disappointing at Limerick when last seen in April; she has won after a break in the past but the ground is a worry. |

Bounced back with a bang when easily winning at Downpatrick (2m6f, yielding to soft) off career-low mark on return in March; failed to back that up from 10lb higher at Down Royal but remains fairly treated on pick of old form. |

Dual-purpose type; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; best effort last year when fourth in a 24-runner handicap chase at the Punchestown festival; not a bad run at Fairyhouse after a break; however, Come On The Lads seems to be the yard's number one. |
