6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 110y |
10st 9lb |
Two-time hurdles winner but on losing run since November 2024 success at Navan (2m4f, gd-yld); below best in handicap chase when last seen at Kilbeggan in August and Sean Flanagan seemingly prefers Hgranca De Thaix. |

9th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 38y |
11st 2lb |
Sole win over fences came in a 2m6f beginners' at this venue; mostly been hurdling recently but ran respectably on return to chasing in the Connacht National at Roscommon on his latest start; that 3m1f trip stretched him, this distance is more suitable; should go well. |

Over two years since his sole win over fences but this is only his fifth attempt and he was placed over hurdles last time off 5lb higher (3m, good); prone to mistakes in this discipline but could go well if finding some fluency. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
No ground worries; best winning day in the 2024 Grand National Trial at Haydock and he's been placed in last two editions of the Troytown in November; those were over fences but he has a much lower hurdles mark and was a close second to Duke Silver in the Leopardstown qualifier; good chance he'll be outspeeded in this but dangerous if he turns for home in contention. |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Won the 2024 Grand National Trial at Haydock; fine effort in third behind Stuzzikini in the 2024 Troytown and went one place better behind Answer To Kayf in this season's edition; 143-rated chaser could finish only second from a mark of 118 in a handicap hurdle at Christmas; however, the run kept him ticking over, and he could be a big player. |

Off the mark over hurdles at the fourth attempt when winning a 2m4f novice here (heavy) in January; faded before stamina became an issue in the race won by On We Go over 3m here last time; questions to answer after that display. |
