25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Knows what these big-field handicaps are all about and it was a cracking run to be fourth in the Irish National in April last time considering he carried an 8lb penalty for winning the Ulster National; that Fairyhouse defeat was his first for this yard; entitled to run well. |

10st 7lb |
Beaten a short head in 2023 Thyestes; started last season brightly with Troytown fourth but pulled up in three big handicaps afterwards; surprise winner on debut for new yard in 2m4f Navan handicap hurdle early last month; maintained his revival with victory over Final Order in the 3m5f Ulster National; 8lb penalty makes this difficult. |

Suffered a severe loss of form not long after his victory in the 3m5f Porterstown Chase at Fairyhouse last season; mildly positive run at Navan four weeks ago, and now 13lb below his career-high mark, 6lb below last winning mark. |

29th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 5f 70y |
11st 9lb |
Needs to step up on recent form, but noteworthy on account of having finished 13l second to the progressive Seddon in this race last year; tried with blinkers after Down Royal fourth; beaten a long way then but had Harveys Quay and Soloman Lane behind. |

Hurdle and chase winner in Ireland; effective at 2m4f or further and versatile with regard to the going; made the frame at Down Royal last time; each-way player. |

Close second in this race last year possibly his best effort; ran okay after a three month break when third in a handicap chase at Gowran last time; only 2lb higher than last year and could go close. |

12th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Placed in the Plate here (2m4f, soft) two years ago and in Irish Grand National (3m5f, soft) a few weeks later but his form nosedived after Munster National success at Limerick (3m, soft) later in 2023; well beaten on last month's cross-country debut at Punchestown (race won by Vanillier) and arrives here with a lot to prove. |

Has lost his form since winning the Munster National at Limerick in October 2023; pulled up three times in a row subsequently and was beaten 55l on his return to action at Navan in November; switch to the banks needs to spark a revival. |

Six-time winner over jumps (five of those coming over hurdles); getting on in years now, but holds a good chance on current form; not a bad effort on the Flat at Tramore before two decent handicap hurdle runs, third over 2m3f at Kilbeggan and second over 2m1f at Wexford. |
