11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Just 1-11 as a chaser, largely because he keeps trying in vain at Grade 1 level; fourth in last year's Cheltenham Gold Cup was one of his peak efforts, as was this season's never-nearer fifth in a Leopardstown Grade 1 at Christmas; he didn't fare so well in the Irish Gold Cup last time but was the only one matching strides with the top-class winner on the home turn; going up markedly in trip today, in a handicap, makes him a mouthwatering proposition. |

2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 100y |
11st 10lb |
Chase record is an off-putting 1-10; can perform respectably at a high level; second in Grade 1s as a novice, fourth behind Inothwayurthinkin in last season's Cheltenham Gold Cup; laboured under a big weight burden in the Coral Gold Cup; finishes behind four of these rivals (and in front of four others) in the Savills. |

11st 10lb |
Last year's Brown Advisory runner-up; finished the campaign with second to Spillane's Tower over C&D; only three runs this season; turned over at Tramore in January; ran well for a long way when beaten nearly 8l in fifth behind Galopin Des Champs at Leopardstown in February; almost unseated rider at the ninth in the Gold Cup and hampered at the 15th; recovered but faded from before the last. |
