14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Smart chaser who scored at Navan (2m4f) last December but his form nosedived after for Gordon Elliott, tried in cheekpieces when pulled up at Punchestown (2m4f) in April; starts out for a new yard here with something to prove. |

11st 12lb |
Both chase wins have come at Navan, notably 2m5f Listed handicap in December off 144 (soft-to-heavy); Cheltenham run put a line through as badly hampered early on, but recent Grade 2 Fairyhouse effort was a lacklustre one; cheekpieces now reached for and joint top-weight has a bit to prove. |

Won his bumper here; both chase wins have come at Navan; won a 20.5f Listed handicap chase on testing ground there off 144 in December; disappointed when third-favourite for the Plate Handicap at Cheltenham; better than that and has a good chance at the weights; can't be discounted. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 13lb |
One-time smart hurdler; three chase wins in the space of four runs last year included a beginners chase at this meeting and a 2m2f Grade 3 at Punchestown; hasn't kicked on at all from that sequence and he'd be a surprise winner. |

Useful chasing campaign last season returned three wins from seven starts; not at his best in a Newbury Grade 2 last November or in Aintree Grade 1 in April; 140 hurdles rating puts him 8lb behind Bowensfire. might be more effective than his stablemate on this ground. |

2-7 over hurdles and some smart form in the book; better known as a chaser these days, but has been out of sorts in that sphere on recent starts; third at Punchestown on latest, but was still beaten over 9l; needs to revive on first run over timber since March 2024. |

2-11 over fences; rated 13lb higher over hurdles; ran well when second in Grade 3 novice here in October (War Correspondent third); has disappointed at Fairyhouse and when pulled up over C&D since returning from a break; needs to leave those efforts behind. |

Very useful hurdler, two wins and third in 2024 Cheltenham Mares' Novices Hurdle; took a while to find her form over fences but won at Killarney and Listowel last year; second in Grade 3 novice here in October; never counted at Fairyhouse after a break. |

Superior hurdle form is reflected in this lower chase mark; 0-8 in this discipline but was third over 3m4f at Leopardstown before pulling up in a Listed handicap at Navan; no surprise to see him run well as drying ground won't faze him. |

0-7 over fences with an 18lb lower mark in this sphere; easily won a Listed hurdle here in December (3m2f, soft to heavy); fell back over fences at Punchestown next time before making a couple of jumping errors when a beaten 5-2 favourite over 3m here in February (heavy); stayed on for third at Leopardstown last time (3m5f, yielding to soft). |
