6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |
11st 12lb |
High class novice last season who was second to The New Lion in the 2m5f Grade 1 at Cheltenham; later suffered a heavy fall at Punchestown; this campaign hasn't really got off the ground and departed too far out (three from home) in the 2m5f handicap at the Festival (Storm Heart third) to know how he would have fared, though was going well enough at the time; wouldn't be a surprise to see him get his career back on track. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Four-timer as a novice last season culminated in 2m4f Grade 1 at Naas, which he followed with second over 2m5f at this meeting (gave The New Lion plenty to think about); took a heavy fall at Punchestown in May, beaten at 8-15 in November (fair second) and failed to shine in Grade 1 at Christmas (notwithstanding the near 3m trip) so he's on a recovery mission, but last season can't be forgotten yet; cheekpieces go on for this handicap debut. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Off the mark at the tenth attempt at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) on Sunday, and in some style too, eased after surging well clear from three out; looks well in under a penalty; has a good chance of following up. |

15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Maiden whose penultimate effort (in May 2024) suggests there may be an ordinary handicap in him; showed signs of retaining ability, while looking in need of the run, on belated return to action; not ruled out. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 104y |
10st 5lb |
Made winning return in 2m5f Cork handicap in November (yielding) and given winter off until not looking to stay 3m6f in National Hunt Chase at Cheltenham in March; interesting contender back in trip here with ground to suit. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 201y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after scoring over an extended 2m6f at Limerick (good) in May and moving nearly 7l clear on the run-in over 2m5f at Cork (yielding) in November; the latter is easily his best form but his chase career began with a strong finish over an extended 3m1f last March, which sparks interest for this test. |

22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 160y |

Winner of maiden hurdle at Navan (2m4f, heavy); some creditable handicap efforts in that sphere; 120-rated hurdler was an eyecatching second on chase debut at Wexford (25.5f, good to yielding) on latest; considered. |

Dual hurdle winner put up a fine run after a break on debut for this yard when runner-up at Clonmel; raised 3lb but might be able to progress enough to defy that; has run well in defeat here before. |

Handicap wins over this trip came at Leopardstown and Tramore over a year ago; looked in handicapper's grasp over the winter and returns from a short break for new yard here. |

Ex-Irish; showed fair form in maiden hurdles for Eoin Doyle last year but pulled up in two handicaps for current yard this summer; blinkers replace cheekpieces; not an obvious candidate. |

0-16 but this 6yo has finished second on two of his last three hurdle starts, most recently at Kelso in September; mid-race unseat on chase debut since; each-way chance back hurdling. |

23rd Jul 2024 Good To Yielding 1m 7f 119y |
12st 0lb |
Posted identical RPR's when fourth in a Navan bumper (sft/hy) last November and when second on return at Punchestown on good ground; the champion amateur takes over today and a hood is added; looks a big player. |

Half-brother to 4 winners including bumper winner and useful hurdler Glan; dam German 6f-1m (Listed) winner, half-sister to high-class jumper Foreman; surpassed market expectations on Navan debut in November when a clear fourth on soft-to-heavy; interesting to see how he copes with this quicker ground, major contender if doing so. |
