10st 9lb |
Relishes testing conditions and took advantage of them twice this season at Limerick when winning a 2m5f Limerick handicap hurdle and a 2m2f handicap chase; up 16lb compared to his win over timber at Punchestown when well beaten and found it similarly difficult off his revised chase mark at Gowran last time (2m4f, heavy); others more likely. |

A better chaser than hurdler; good chase run here when last seen in March; rated lower over hurdles and can go well but lacks a recent run. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Good efforts in defeat behind Java Point (3m, good to soft) and Unexposed Party (2m6f, good to soft) this year and ran well for a long way before fading at last month's Cheltenham Festival (3m2f); could have an each-way shout at big odds now back down in trip; reapplied cheekpieces replace hood. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
125-1 for this last year but was still travelling within himself when falling three out; returns on the back of a positive performance at Haydock when just ahead of Shearer; hood returns; he's no forlorn hope by any means. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 6f 54y Class 3 |
12st 1lb |
Ran well when fifth in this race a year ago (good to soft) and has some notable form since, including fourth of 16 in amateur riders' handicap at Cheltenham (3m1f, heavy) in November and third in recent Ludlow hunter chase (3m, good to soft); can make his presence felt. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 4lb |
Six-time winner (four chases, two hurdles) holds a 14lb lower hurdles mark and ran a very encouraging race returning from an absence at Killarney when third; entitled to improve on that; interesting. |

Potentially well handicapped given his chasing exploits off higher marks but he is a 12yo returning from a long absence. |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 0y |
10st 6lb |
1-31 under rules, with sole win coming in a Gowran handicap chase in 2023; posted a decent effort over timber last time when staying on for a 3l fourth (3m, soft to heavy); up 1lb and overall record is off-putting. |

Ended last term with a good effort over a near-4m trip at Punchestown, though beaten 20l in third (4l to spare over Lonesome Boatman); has warmed up with a hurdles run at Gowran; definite chance. |

Romped home in a Ballinrobe handicap in May 2022 (for Henry De Bromhead) but unplaced in five subsequent starts, the latest when tried in cheekpieces in August; bought last month for £10,000 and possibly best watched. |

Was gaining fourth chase win when beating Marronstown over 3m2f at Down Royal last season off 97; below best in two starts since, running no sort of race at Navan last month; hard to be confident in. |
