13th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Seven-time hurdles winner made a satisfactory return from a long absence at Naas when sixth; didn't build on that at Clonmel last time; others preferred. |

26th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 2f 188y |
11st 3lb |
Six-time winner in Britain and gained her first Irish win in game fashion over 2m4f at this venue in January 2024 on her third and final start for Marie Harding; at the veteran stage now but made a promising reappearance under Joanna Walton (aboard for all seven wins) over 2m at Naas recently; each-way prospects. |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 1f 71y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Well treated on last season's best efforts but this 10yo hasn't been at the top of his game on his last two starts and hopes are pinned on the change of headgear giving him a boost. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Three-time winner, the latest at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) last May, and she hasn't been running badly this season (good to soft/soft); edging back down the weights and might not be far away. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |

Regressive veteran who has been out of form over hurdles and fences this season; continues to slide down the weights but the addition of cheekpieces (retained) didn't appear to help much in a chase last month. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 3 |

Course specialist who won two in a row over C&D (heavy/soft) in January; he's better than he showed when 15l third over C&D (soft) in February and the subsequent break may have helped, but this 10yo may still be vulnerable back up in grade. |

29th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 149y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won Irish maiden point (3m, soft) last April; heavy defeats in Britain in three novice hurdles and, after wind surgery, beaten 20l when sixth of 15 on handicap debut at Hexham (near 3m, heavy) 13 days ago; he was well behind Pipers Cross in the latter and is 2lb out of the handicap today. |

16th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Form of last April's Irish point win (3m, soft) hasn't worked out; three heavy defeats in slow-ground 2m hurdles since, and hopes likely rest as much on the wind surgery as the step back up in trip. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 4f 100y Class 5 |

Opened her account at the fifth attempt in Irish points; has poor claims on rules form (2m) but looks a possible improver now handicapping and upped to 2m4f on first run since wind surgery. |

Runner-up in this event 12 months ago but he's yet to hit top form this term and came in a well-held sixth back hurdling in 2m4f Ayr handicap last month; still can't be totally discounted returning here off a reduced mark. |

12st 2lb |
Cashed in a career-low mark at Ffos Las in January (3m) on soft ground still not thought soft enough by connections; still 8lb below a winning mark despite a re-raise, and will find this course no less to his liking. |

1-20 over fences and although he finished second here (4m) in March, he has run below that since at Carlisle and back over hurdles at Perth; requires an extreme test to be seen at his best. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |

Both hurdle wins came over 3m/3m1f on soft back in 2022; fair second in a 4m h'cap chase at Hexham last month (soft), but not so good last time. |

Belied 40-1 odds when keeping-on second (no threat to winner) at Hexham (4m, soft) last month and is also well suited by this track but is far too inconsistent to rely upon and would appeal more on soft/heavy ground. |

Pulled up on two of her three appearances this season, latterly over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago; ran well in defeat at Catterick (3m1f, heavy) in between but is not an easy one to predict and may find today's ground too lively. |
