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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 111y |
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. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 110y |

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. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |
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. |

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. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

Lost form since back-to-back wins at Limerick and Punchestown (soft) in 2023; change of scenery hasn't sparked a revival and he is hard to fancy on what he has shown recently. |
