3rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 10lb |
2-23 over fences, those wins gained mid-winter in 2022/23 season; fourth in two handicap runs in recent months; was due to run in the 6.30 here on Friday; not suited by the race conditions. |

10st 12lb |
Back-to-back chase wins two years ago; nothing since then, finished in front of Lightkeeper when fourth at Wexford when last seen (2m3f, good); that was her best run for a while; refused to line up at Punchestown in April, so comes with risks attached. |

2-22 over fences; poor form recently and a 10l fourth of eight at Punchestown last month wasn't hugely encouraging; refused to line up at Punchestown in April; a risky profile and others are in better form. |

0-13 over fences; not unfancied for the Aintree Grand National when last seen but was well beaten; his best form has come in softer conditions so he may prefer a drop of rain; one of the more likely contenders if ready to rock in first-time blinkers. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Useful when trained in Ireland but generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; ought to have coped much better with the soft ground when pulled up at Cartmel last month; others preferred. |

Useful when trained in Ireland but generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn; arrested decline with respectable fifth at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) three weeks ago but needs to build on that run. |

10st 6lb |
Exposed but useful on his day; latest of three chase wins came off same mark in veterans' chase on this card a year ago; ran well in Midlands National at Kilbeggan next time and stays this far; after a layoff, ran okay at Wexford last month but probably vulnerable to those with more upside. |

Gained the most recent of his three chase wins in a 2m3f handicap on good ground at Ballinrobe last May; lacks a recent run but trip/ground in his favour so local challenger respected. |

More than three years since his last racecourse win; okay run in a Cork hunters' chase when a 22l fifth but tailed off at Punchestown last time; blinkers go on now but unlikely. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
No ground worries; best winning day in the 2024 Grand National Trial at Haydock and he's been placed in last two editions of the Troytown in November; those were over fences but he has a much lower hurdles mark and was a close second to Duke Silver in the Leopardstown qualifier; good chance he'll be outspeeded in this but dangerous if he turns for home in contention. |
20/1 |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Won the 2024 Grand National Trial at Haydock; fine effort in third behind Stuzzikini in the 2024 Troytown and went one place better behind Answer To Kayf in this season's edition; 143-rated chaser could finish only second from a mark of 118 in a handicap hurdle at Christmas; however, the run kept him ticking over, and he could be a big player. |

The 2024 Grand National Trial winner at Haydock; fine effort in third behind Stuzzikini in the Troytown at Navan last November; lost form later in the campaign; plenty to find with Weveallebeencaught on Kim Muir running. |

Won his third race over hurdles when scoring at Ballinrobe last September off 4lb lower; some decent runs since but was pulled-up at Thurles last time; a squeak if bouncing back. |

5th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 6f 198y |

Course handicap hurdle winner in 2021; bolted up on yard debut at Ballinrobe in September (2m6f, soft) before solid fifth at Listowel; below best at Cheltenham next time; ran well for a long way here (24.5f, yielding) over fences in December. |

Won a 3m2f Limerick handicap chase in May for the late Edward O'Grady; pulled up on next two outings (coughing on the first occasion); return to hurdling did the trick when he scored readily on recent stable debut at Ballinrobe; can remain competitive off 7lb higher, with the same talented 7lb claimer up. |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 10y |
11st 0lb |
In top form this season; won a Fairyhouse handicap hurdle off 108 before following up in a Listed handicap chase there next time (3m6f, yielding to soft); looked in command when leader departed at final flight in Thyestes before being nabbed by Now Is The Hour (3m1f, heavy); holds a chase mark now of 136 so obvious chance off this hurdles rating. |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y |
10st 5lb |
Runner-up in two handicap chases at around 3m in the spring of 2024; below that level over fences in three chase starts last season; exploited a 14lb lower hurdle mark to win over 3m at Fairyhouse on seasonal debut; made sustained headway from well off the pace to touch off Will Do in the Porterstown at the same venue; 9lb higher, still on a handy weight. |
6/1 |
Verdict
An interesting rematch between the first three home in a C&D handicap last month, Temptationinmilan, Galon De Vauzelle and Brompton Belle, but preference is for PRIORY PARK, who shaped as if ready for this step up in trip at Fairyhouse last time. Yeah Man has yet to deliver over fences but this could be the stamina test he needs and rates a threat. [Alan Hewison]
