6th 1 |
1st Nov 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Improved to win a 2m3f bumper at Downpatrick in August; jumping was not his strong suit when runner-up in a maiden hurdle at the same venue last month, but the winner did the form no harm whan a close second in a Galway novice hurdle last weekend; this looks a much more difficult assignment though. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 72y |
11st 2lb |
2-10 over hurdles and rated 143; Grade 1 novice winner at Fairyhouse in December 2023 but that was his last win in this sphere; vast majority of best form is on soft and heavy ground, so could probably do with some rain; would be getting 9lb from Daddy Long Legs in a handicap; place claims. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |

Grade 1-winning novice and won over fences last season; hasn't really reached the heights he once promised and was beaten in races won by Glen Kiln and Storm Heart before pulling up in the 2m5f handicap at Cheltenham when tried in cheekpieces (retained). |

27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Long-absent 8yo showed plenty of ability when second (to Croke Park) in a Dromahane point-to-point and in bumpers in early 2023 when second in good Naas contest and beaten 4l in steadily-run Punchestown event (yielding); major player if able to reproduce that level of form here after more than three years off the track. |

28th Apr 2023 Yielding 2m 2f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Beaten 1l in a point on debut and encouraging Rules bow when runner-up at Naas last month; was in amongst some nice prospects at Naas and entitled to come on for that first run in a year. |
20/1 |

2nd 3 |
30th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 63y |
12st 0lb |
Second (third has won a Ffos Las bumper) in Dromahane 4yo maiden point-to-point for Matthew Flynn last April before realising GBP120,000 at Goffs Aintree Sales; interesting contender making Rules debut. |

14th Apr 2023 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 98y |

Eighth foal; half-brother to winners Son Of Red (1m4f/2m AW Flat, RPR 79; 2m hurdle), What A Party (7f 2yo inc AW, later placed up to 2m; 77) and Karanogay (Russian 6f 2yo); dam unplaced in bumpers; by a quality sire but cost only Eur2,500 as a yearling; probably best watched. |

Sole hurdle win came here over 2m6f and his his best chase efforts have also been here; however, has been poor on last three starts and has to rebound in a big way. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 185y |

Sole win came here in a 2m6f handicap hurdle off this mark in 2024 (good to yielding); reverts to hurdles following poor efforts in his last two runs; won't want the ground too soft. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Beat none other than last season's Ultima winner Myretown in a maiden hurdle in early 2024 but comfortably beaten next time and left Stuart Crawford for £10,000; he was struggling when unseating on chase debut here over a year ago for Rebecca Menzies; has since joined Sam England who fits a tongue-tie; bit risky. |

Not much promise over hurdles and well-beaten off 91 and 89 in last two starts in that sphere, including here over 2m6f; can only be watched on chasing debut. |

Has shaped better in maidens since the blinkers were fitted but was beaten 90l at Downpatrick this month; stable has had no winner since May 2022 and this gelding has very little chance on recent form. |

Ex-Irish maiden who is inconsistent; has made the frame twice for current yard but suffered a heavy defeat last time; far from solid and faces a difficult task at the weights to boot. |

Verdict
A clear standard is set by JOSHUA DES FLOS who wasn’t far behind Absolute Notions in a maiden hurdle when last seen and this is a much easier test. He’s My Hero and Farren Glory are both interesting point recruits with each-way chances. [Phill Anderson]
