1st 2 |
1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 11lb |
The fact Townend picks him from the stable's eight runners is a very big positive; maiden hurdle winner placed in Grade 1 novice company at Aintree last term (2m4f, good); beaten favourite in opening two chase runs before making the breakthrough at Cork (2m1f, yielding) last time, when defeating Wingmen by 0.75l; big player with further improvement plausible. |
11/2 |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 45y |
11st 12lb |
Classy hurdler won a Clonmel 2m1f maiden before a close third in an Aintree Grade 1 novice over 2m4f last season; was an unlucky loser on second chase start at Gowran last time behind a stablemate; down in trip and a big player. |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
One of three for stable; highly tried after an easy Clonmel maiden hurdle win and emerged with much credit when third in the Grade 1 Mersey Novices' Hurdle at Aintree; only third when odds-on at Naas on chasing debut; finished 2l behind longer-priced stablemate King Alexander; Paul Townend keeps faith. |

2nd May 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 140y |
11st 12lb |
Wide margin maiden hurdle winner who bounced back from a low-key run in the Supreme when third beaten roughly 1l in the Mersey at Aintree; needs a sizeable step forward from that run to play a part here but hard to rule out. |
8/1 |
