10st 3lb |
Useful staying handicap hurdler three seasons ago; struggled at this venue on comeback a fortnight ago; Sea Aster is probably the yard's number one hope here. |

11st 12lb |
Absent since a faller four out when leading on chase debut at Downpatrick over two years ago; has run well fresh but seems certain to be all the better for this comeback run; trainer also runs Masterboy Davis so the market can guide as to expectations. |

17th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Triple hurdle winner is rated 120 in that discipline and has won over 3m; however, was tailed-off on chasing debut at Naas recently so will have to improve hugely on that. |
8/1 |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Rated 120 over hurdles; three-time winner over timber with his latest win coming at Navan in February last year (2m6f, soft to heavy); nothing from three subsequent runs, beaten 7.5l at this venue last month (2m7f, heavy); 12yo makes his chasing debut now and others preferred. |
12/1 |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 7f 20y |

Three hurdle wins have all been on soft/heavy, most recently runaway win over 2m6f at Navan a year ago off 114; seen just twice since off much higher mark, pulled up after never counting on seasonal return at same venue in November; entitled to come on for that and has his ground. |

Has recorded three of his five wins at Punchestown, the most recent was last June; ran well at a big price there in January on his second run after a break. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 51y |
10st 0lb |
Was gaining fourth win over fences when coping with better ground over 2m4f at Punchestown eight days ago, recording a third win at the track in what was a messy race; not certain to back that up but 4lb rise gives him every chance (2lb out of handicap but rider claims 3lb) and has won over hurdles around here. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 55y |

Three chase wins have come on soft/heavy ground; out of form since last win in March 2024; showed no sign of a return to form when beaten 27L at Down Royal last time; dropped 3lb but hard to fancy. |

Back to form when third at Navan in a handicap hurdle he was placed in the previous year; tailed off and pulled up in his last two chases but has won in this discipline and could have a say. |

Winless since 2023 and he's been off the track since pulled up in 3m handicap in November; on a useful mark if resurgent after a break. |

Lost out only by a nose to Orange Diamond over C&D (good) in August but was not quite in same form when fifth behind same rival here last month and has become far too inconsistent to rely upon. |

Sole win in 32 starts came in 2020; fair way below his best in three runs over hurdles this year and was pulled up at Wexford last month; first-time blinkers need to spark a revival. |

Back from 10 months off with very creditable efforts in handicap chases here and at Punchestown; poor efforts last twice and can only be watched for now. |
