23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Mainly in fair form this season and can be forgiven a below-par run on testing ground at Exeter last time; these conditions suit; each-way chance with cheekpieces back on. |

20th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 54y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Three front-running hurdle wins in 2024 (2m5f/3m, soft/good to soft) and she was running pretty well in defeat towards the end of 2025; 10l second of four at Carlisle 17 days ago on chase debut, showing she has some way to go before she's matching today's rivals over fences. |

10st 12lb |
Three front-running hurdle wins in 2024 (2m5f/3m, soft/good to soft) and she was running pretty well in defeat against fellow mares towards the end of 2025; receives 7lb from the males today and holds leading claims if taking to fences at the first attempt. |

Some good chase form in 2023-24 season and he won two points early last year; he's in the picture on his best form but has failed to shine on his two point starts this winter. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 3lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles; won this last year and he returns on the back of a narrow win at Clonmel (2m7f); has to enter the equation. |
6/1 |

1st 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Two-time chase (including here) and hurdling winner has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark on his last three starts; likes it here but remains 5lb above his last hurdles win and stamina to prove for this trip. |
18/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 45y |
11st 4lb |
Dual-hurdles and chase winner is rated 8lb lower over timber; very comfortable winner of a handicap chase at Kilbeggan in August (2m4f, good to yielding) but unable to follow up back over hurdles off lower mark at Killarney; set a tall task in a Grade 3 chase at Tipperary last time; not out of it at his best but seems to be better over fences. |

Has won a point, maiden hurdle and beginners' chase but lost her form over fences for Gordon Elliott last autumn; no better on debut for this yard but could do better returned to hurdles today. |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 100y |

Consistent hurdler was a chase debut winner for Gordon Elliott at Tramore last summer (2m, yielding) but well held in novices and handicaps afterwards; debuts for new yard here. |

Maiden in fair form over hurdles and fences lately; long way adrift of Rule Of June and Drimsree Lad when fourth at Clonmel, pulled up at Kilbeggan yesterday. |

19th Jun 2023 Good 3m 0f 100y |

15-race maiden; ran okay over fences on chase debut at Clonmel 10 days ago; each-way claims if he builds on that. |

21st Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 150y |
11st 1lb |
Still 7lb above the mark at which he gained his last chase win in March 2024, tough task on his first outing since the Punchestown festival; behind Dutch Scultz (fourth) but on the positive side, he was in front of Gaelic Art and Jasko Des Dames in that race. |
