Useful sort at his best and has run well in defeat in Grade 1 company over hurdles and fences; finally got off the mark over fences at Down Royal last time over 2m4f; this trip will suit better; a big player. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y |
11st 12lb |
Promising novice chaser in 2023-2024 season and ran well in Graded hurdles in winter of 2024-2025; fairly moderate form this season but he shaped better than the bare result in the Kim Muir last time when making smooth headway turning in before his effort petered out (3m3f, good); tongue tie goes back on now and this is a good opportunity. |

Promising novice chaser in 2023-24 season and ran well in Graded hurdles in winter 2024-25; well handicapped on his peak form but he's failed to produce it over the last 12 months; 0-9 over fences and last hurdle win was in April 2023; a major turnaround is needed in first-time cheekpieces. |

Back from wind surgery he bumped into one well handicapped at Bangor (2m4f, good) and it was a strong race in which he struggled at Haydock; he's no forlorn hope on that penultimate effort. |

Back from wind surgery he bumped into one well handicapped at Bangor two weeks ago (2m4f, good); it could be a similar story here and winning this would demand a career best from him. |

Out of the handicap when a respectable fourth in a Class 2 at Musselburgh on his penultimate start (2m4f, good to soft) and has had wind surgery since finishing tailed off at Kelso; hard to dismiss. |

Point' winner was runner-up to an exciting type in a Punchestown bumper in May; wasn't overly impressive when winning a Thurles bumper on recent return but going over hurdles and stepping up in trip should suit him; seems to be the stable number one. |

3rd Nov 2022 Yielding To Soft 1m 7f 188y |

Walk In The Park gelding cost 30,000Euros as a 3yo, is half-brother to point winner Our Miss Power; dam once-raced half-sister to St Leger winner Bollin Eric; bolted up in Borris House point-to-point (yielding) and very encouraging bumper debut when second (third and fourth have won since) to a smart type at Punchestown in May (good); seems sure to win a bumper and the one to beat if handling this softer ground. |

Well-treated on Irish form in 2022-23 season and he made an encouraging stable debut here in November 2023; however, three lesser runs followed and this is his first outing since last July; plenty to prove. |

10st 0lb |
Justified favouritism in a Leopardstown handicap in December; last of four finishers in the 20-runner Lanzarote on very testing ground when last seen 105 days ago; effectively 5lb lower here (1lb wrong at weights) and there's potential for more to come on just his third handicap start. |

Unexposed contender who represents a very shrewd Irish trainer; justified favouritism with 1l success under Philip Byrnes at Leopardstown (2m4f, soft) last month when making handicap debut; should be capable of further progress; has to be feared. |

Returned from long absence with quite encouraging hurdle run in May and ran well for a long way over C&D (good; race in which Salamanca Bay fell) last month; finished rather weakly on both occasions but might last longer if first-time hood helps him to settle better in early stages today. |

Showed fair form over hurdles for Conor O'Dwyer in Ireland, best run when third of 13 in a Punchestown maiden on debut (2m4f, soft/heavy); didn't progress, although fair fifth in headgear in a Ballinrobe handicap on final start in September 2023 (2m6f, good); off since, and perhaps best watched down in trip on stable debut; tongue-tie tried. |
