3rd Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 210y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Stablemate of Gaelic Warrior; record of 3-6 over fences features a very useful performance at Tramore (2m7f, heavy) on New Year's Day; subsequently came up short in the Irish Gold Cup, taking overall Grade 1 form figures to P6P6; still has something to prove at this level. |

Pulled-up either side of a fine second at Navan; front-runner is at her best when getting a clear lead but is inconsistent; a player if at that best. |

5th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Big improver sent chasing by his new yard last season and he then disputed the lead over the final fence in this race, only to end up 16l behind in seventh; needs to see it out a lot better and, after he faded well out of contention on all three starts this term, he nevertheless returns to Aintree with a 1lb higher mark than last year. |

Big improver over fences on joining this yard last season, notably running away with 3m Paddy Power here and good third in Ultima at Cheltenham; two runs here this term well below best, in Paddy Power and never landing a blow off considerably lower hurdles mark at DRF; another with a bit to prove right now. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Three listless performances since returning from 13 months out; 12lb below his last winning mark now, but no good thing to capitalise. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won twice in November 2024 (2m7f/3m, good/good to soft) but mainly disappointing since including on both runs since a 404-day break; plenty to prove at present. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Stays 3m and acts on the forecast sound surface; 50-1, always behind and pulled up on his return from 13 months off the track at Wetherby on latest start; bit to prove. |

11st 12lb |
Lost his way for Gordon Elliott and sold on for 22,000euros; the form of his first three races for this yard stacks up well (from 2m4f to 3m) and reportedly bled when below par last time; definite chance should the wheels stay on. |
