28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 98y |
11st 12lb |
The 2025 Champion Chaser arrives here a fresher horse than most after missing Cheltenham with a sore neck; returned to action at Leopardstown in December with a pleasing effort behind Solness after making an early mistake; no match for Majborough at the DRF on testing ground but he's a much better horse on a sounder surface; won this in fine style last year and could repeat the dose. |

11st 12lb |
Top-class novice hurdler had an interrupted novice chase season but came good last term, finishing runner-up to Solness in this race before winning the Champion Chase at Cheltenham; he then followed up at Punchestown in style; did well to recover from an error on comeback over C&D last time, just losing out to Solness again; this testing ground is a question, but is the one to beat if handling it. |

towards rear but in touch with leaders, smooth headway 3 out, soon niggled along, challenging after 2 out, led going best approaching last, shaken up and went clear run-in, comfortably |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 3lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles; won this last year and he returns on the back of a narrow win at Clonmel (2m7f); has to enter the equation. |

1st 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Two-time chase (including here) and hurdling winner has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark on his last three starts; likes it here but remains 5lb above his last hurdles win and stamina to prove for this trip. |
18/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 45y |
11st 4lb |
Dual-hurdles and chase winner is rated 8lb lower over timber; very comfortable winner of a handicap chase at Kilbeggan in August (2m4f, good to yielding) but unable to follow up back over hurdles off lower mark at Killarney; set a tall task in a Grade 3 chase at Tipperary last time; not out of it at his best but seems to be better over fences. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 150y |
11st 0lb |
Won at Killarney last July off 12lb lower; respectable run in Cork National (3m4f, gd-yld) off 106 (3lb wrong) last November; pulled up back there three weeks later; out of depth in Killarney National on return from break latest; these are calmer waters and could rebound. |

Sole chase win came at this track over 2m7f last year; some decent runs in defeat since but faces a tough task here on return from 8lb out of the handicap. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 4f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Went up 9lb for a Killarney win in July; ran poorly at the same venue in August; more like it again when second to a well-handicapped horse at Punchestown; again runner-up at Galway last Sunday (10l clear of the third) and at Thurles on Thursday; 3lb out of the handicap in this more demanding company. |
