26th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 111y |
10st 2lb |
Ran well over hurdles in July but well behind last time at Navan, that after a pull-up over fences; only 4-41 overall and opposable in a race of this nature. |

20th Sep 2025 Yielding 1m 7f 165y |

Two disappointing runs over fences since placed in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan in July; probably vulnerable to younger and less exposed rivals. |

17th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 0y |

Not at his best since second to the high-class Saint Roi at Galway last season; was promoted to 133 as a result of that display; now 15lb lower, showed signs of a return to form when third over hurdles at Kilbeggan last month; slightly disappointing at Galway this year but is dropped in grade now and is a course winner. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 4lb |
Winner off the same mark at Wexford in 2023; his runs since then have been poor and he was weakening when he slipped up after two out at Punchestown last time; cheekpieces are now added to the tongue tie. |

Dual hurdle winner with the form to have a big say on these terms and he was in contention when falling in Kendancer's claimer at Limerick 12 days ago; notoriously headstrong and always comes with an element of risk. |

Dual hurdle winner on good ground, never sighted on return from 544-day absence at Downpatrick in June; reverts to fences here having shown nothing in three attempts in late 2022 so impossible to assess on handicap debut; market likely best guide. |

Flat winner is 0-26 over hurdles; off since heavy defeat in handicap chase at Thurles in October; has run well here on the Flat in the past but overall record fresh suggests he might need this after 194 days off. |

All five wins have come over hurdles but has managed useful form in defeat over fences this term; finished in front of his shorter-priced stablemate Ricky Langford (also runs here) when second at Killarney in October; tongue-tie tried when unplaced over C&D, left off now. |
