18th Nov 2025 Heavy 3m 0f 100y |
12st 0lb |
Has been running over fences, exploiting an initially favourable mark (84); handed an 11lb rise for Killarney win in August, when he beat subsequent Listowel winner Pride Of Place; faded after a mistake at the last at Listowel; won again at Galway, scoring by 5l to earn promotion to 104; sound prospects now off just 5lb higher than winning 2m5f event here 12 months ago. |

Hit by an 11lb rise for Killarney win in August, when he beat subsequent Listowel winner Pride Of Place; faded into after a mistake at the last at Listowel, not beaten far in fifth, so should not be ruled out. |

Her sole career win came in a 2m6f handicap hurdle here in September; beaten 22l in a 2m4f handicap on her belated chase debut but it wasn't a bad run. |

This is a belated debut over fences but had been running well over hurdles until finding the ground too slow in her last couple of starts; whether she'll take a shine to this new discipline remains to be seen. |

Stays well; gave a stout hurdles performance when scoring over 3m at Galway in October; beaten in excess of 20l in her most recent three races; 90-rated hurdler may struggle over this trip on chase debut. |

10st 10lb |
Maiden hurdler with uneven form; definite player judged on runner-up finishes at Limerick and Punchestown this season; the form of the latter has worked out well as the third Live To Laugh has won twice since; ran below market expectations at Limerick three weeks ago but big player if he takes to fences. |

12th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 6f 170y |

Maiden with uneven form. second here in November (3m, heavy); next run here not at the same level and then unseated at Thurles; confirmed a liking for a stamina test when second over 3m at Naas last week; can pick up a race at some stage. |

Trip and ground will be fine as it was 3m on heavy when second of 12 at Limerick two runs back; his following run there wasn't up to the same level but has a big run in him. |

First reserve; won over hurdles at Punchestown (2m7f, heavy) in January; below best twice since, including on chase debut at Clonmel on latest; needs more off this mark. |

Battled to gain a first win when successful over hurdles at Limerick in December off 84 (2m6f, soft to heavy); tailed off at Punchestown next time; bounced back when runner-up back at Limerick last time (2m7f, heavy), had Mickey Hulie 17l behind in third that day; best form on softer. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 50y |

Came good here when an easy 9l winner over hurdles last month (2m4f, soft); sent chasing at Down Royal (2m4, yielding to soft) to take advantage of lower mark and landed the odds by 0.5l; must now run from 17lb revised mark, which makes things a lot tougher. |
