2nd May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 90y |
11st 7lb |
Third reserve; second to Vanillier in P P Hogan Memorial over C&D in February and most recently a close third (beaten 1.25l) to Busselton in 4m1f La Touche here on Thursday; big player if turning out again. |

3rd 13 |
30th Apr 2026 Yielding 4m 1f 11y |
11st 7lb |
Fourth behind Stumptown in the 2025 Glenfarclas Chase; went on to finish third in the Topham and fifth in this race; twice second over the shorter course here this season, behind Desertmore House in November and behind Vanillier in February; may rebound after below-par effort at Cheltenham. |
4/1 |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Has made the frame at two Cheltenham Festivals, more recently when staying on from long way off the pace to take fourth behind Stumptown in this race in 2025 (good to soft); returns here after a pretty good second to Vanillier on Bank course at Punchestown (3m1f, soft to heavy) but, from out of the weights, is effectively 5lb higher than last year; sports first-time cheekpieces. |

1-9 over fences; that win came in C&D Grade 2 novice in February 2023; failed to complete the course in three chase attempts last season; got a confidence-boosting run on stable debut at Tramore in August; long-priced fourth in the Kerry National; big burden now. |

29th Dec 2022 Yielding 3m 0f 0y |
11st 10lb |
Recorded the most recent of three hurdle wins over two years ago; made a good start over fences at Naas, chasing home 12l winner Three Stripe Life after a couple of mistakes and being hampered by a faller; disappointing at Thurles five weeks ago, and held by Churchstonewarrior on that evidence. |

24th Nov 2022 Yielding 2m 6f 0y |

No win for two years over hurdles but made a highly promising chase debut at Naas 12 days ago when chasing home the very classy Three Stripe Life after a couple of mistakes and being hampered by a faller; step up in trip will suit and bound to improve for the experience; could well go close. |

15th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 54y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Very useful hurdler in his prime but this 10yo isn't the same force nowadays and was no match for Jet Plane in a hunter chase at Wetherby (3m, soft) a fortnight ago; others are preferred. |

1st Feb 2025 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 5 |

Earned a lofty rating over hurdles for Henry De Bromhead but hasn't been quite so effective over fences (0-5) and his recent third between the flags was remote; others have less to prove right now. |

Was found a simple task in a Cork maiden hurdle in March before running no race in a Grade B handicap hurdle at Punchestown; always a likely sort to do better as a chaser although might be best watched this time. |

1-31 under rules, with sole win coming in a Gowran handicap chase in 2023; posted a decent effort over timber last time when staying on for a 3l fourth (3m, soft to heavy); up 1lb and overall record is off-putting. |

Ended last term with a good effort over a near-4m trip at Punchestown, though beaten 20l in third (4l to spare over Lonesome Boatman); has warmed up with a hurdles run at Gowran; definite chance. |

19th Oct 2023 Yielding 2m 4f 112y |
10st 13lb |
Point winner; not always fluent over fences, as seen when making a bad mistake at the last at Tramore in August and unseated on his previous two outings; 5lb rise probably isn't an issue and this ground is fine but needs to jump better. |
