14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 10lb |
Three-time winner; veteran last scored over 3m at Perth last August; signs of life on latest at Wexford but this trip may be a touch sharp. |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Most recent of three wins came in 3m Perth handicap hurdle last summer; tailed off on comeback run at Newcastle and never counted over the banks at Punchestown festival early this month; trip on the short side reverting to hurdles. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 157y |
10st 8lb |
Dual hurdle and chase winner who has won off higher marks in the past; not shown enough this year in recent months in either sphere to suggest a revival is imminent. |
28/1 |

8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 150y |
11st 10lb |
Dual hurdle and chase winner has regressed after a decent comeback run in December from a long absence, so questions remain. |

12th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 6f 170y |
12st 0lb |
Veteran's two of four wins have come here, most recently C&D novice handicap chase in December 2022 (heavy); light campaign since, well held over C&D at Christmas (well-backed) and again twice since over hurdles; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces and opposable despite career-low chase mark and yard's recent return to form. |

10st 9lb |
Got off the mark when winning a Fairyhouse handicap chase in testing ground in January; wasn't disgraced when out of the handicap in the Leinster National since; could still have improvement to come, so respected. |

27th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 0f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Won maiden hurdle at Ffos Las in April 2021; inconsistent since switching from Britain; failed to build on a promising second at Limerick when only sixth back at that venue latest; fair mark if he's on a going day. |

Verdict
Sweet Will is likely to be a warm order for the in-form Gavin Cromwell here and has every chance of following up his impressive win over hurdles at Cheltenham, especially considering he is rated 10lb lower over fences. But a chance can be taken on THE TACK ROOM for John Kiely who was well beaten by Difficult Decision at Limerick but pretty much lost all chance when badly hampered at the eighth. He stuck on well despite that setback and could make the necessary improvement. Difficult Decision won that race contest easily but is up 9lb here and hasn’t always been the most consistent.
