12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Prevailed in a big field at Galway (2m6f, good) on chase debut but has failed to back up that form since and was particularly disappointing in October when bidding for a second win at the Cheltenham Showcase meeting; wears first-time headgear; less solid than others. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 10lb
|
Reserve; won four times (once on good here) as a novice hurdler last season before pulling up at 14-1 in the 3m Grade 1 novice event here; won chase debut at the Galway festival (2m6f) last August but chase career has gone badly the wrong way since, latest start 11 days ago; returns to hurdling in first-time cheekpieces; next to no exposure in handicaps but low on the list. |

28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Four-time hurdles winner with a liking for a sound surface and staying trips; had the going in his favour when making a winning chase debut over 2m6f at the Galway festival last August; disappointing when well fancied for a 3m1f contest at Cheltenham in October; unseated at the first at Musselburgh early this month. |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Irish 7yo whose overall record of 8-17 includes a success at the Galway festival (2m6f, good) on chase debut; disappointing at Cheltenham in only subsequent start but may still have more to offer in this sphere; effective when fresh. |
6/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Four wins over hurdles included the 3m novice on this card 12 months ago; reportedly off colour when twice disappointing in the spring; back from 100 days off to win a competitive beginners' chase at Galway (2m6f, good; fine on softer) so returning from a similar absence is of no concern; commands the utmost respect. |
9/4 |
