Lost form after Gowran chase win in 2022 and very sparingly raced in recent years though has shown a bit of promise last twice at Wexford; new headgear combination here and not one to rule out. |

Eight race maiden over hurdles but shaped well enough when fourth off 96 at Limerick last time; not seen since and can only be watched on return from 444 days off, unless the market speaks in his favour. |

Ex-Irish; has made a bright start in points for his current trainer, winning twice last month under Heidi Palin; races prominently and should give a good account. |

11st 5lb |
Off the track for a year after a decent third in a Gowran maiden hurdle in 2021; well beaten in a couple of chases after he was a disappointing favourite in a Clonmel handicap hurdle; might well be suited by this trip but hard to know what to expect. |

3rd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |
12st 0lb |
Has recorded three of his five wins at Punchestown, the most recent was last June; ran well at a big price there in January on his second run after a break. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 51y |
10st 0lb |
Was gaining fourth win over fences when coping with better ground over 2m4f at Punchestown eight days ago, recording a third win at the track in what was a messy race; not certain to back that up but 4lb rise gives him every chance (2lb out of handicap but rider claims 3lb) and has won over hurdles around here. |

Three chase wins have come on soft/heavy ground; out of form since last win in March 2024; showed no sign of a return to form when beaten 27L at Down Royal last time; dropped 3lb but hard to fancy. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Veteran who has won three of his last five starts and was as good as ever when scoring on the step up to 3m at Wincanton (good) last month; up 4lb but he should have more to offer over staying trips and he's an interesting contender. |
6/1 |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
In career-best form this season, winning here (2m4f, good) and at Taunton (2m3f, heavy); well beaten on latest outing, though, and remains on tough mark for first 3m attempt under rules. |
16/1 |

9th 3 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
In-form 10yo who has won two of his last three; raised another 4lb since scoring under a good 7lb claimer at Taunton (2m3f, heavy) this month, though, and may find younger rivals better handicapped here. |
