Better chaser albeit well below best twice in valuable handicaps in December and pulled up after never counting in valuable 3m Leopardstown handicap hurdle early this month; cheekpieces tried. |

11th Oct 2024 Good 2m 3f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner when trained by Willie Mullins; went close in a few maiden hurdles but only a remote fourth at Clonmel last week; first-time cheekpieces added to tongue-tie on his chasing debut; betting will guide. |

Point-to-point winner has struggled over fences and hurdles in 2025, slightly more encouraging run here earlier in the month (2m5f); drops in trip. |

Promise in 2m4f maiden here over two years ago but hasn't built on that, returning from spell in point-to-points this term and well held over both hurdles and fences; still looks badly handicapped. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 150y |
10st 9lb |
0-28 under rules and 0-8 in chases but has run well in defeat on occasion in this sphere; decent fourth at Leopardstown (21.5f, yielding) in March; 8l second at Down Royal (3m2f, good) in April; modest fifth at Perth latest; needs to find more to get his head in front. |

27-race maiden; last two efforts were respectable, including when runner-up at Down Royal (3m2f, good; beaten 8l) over a month ago; others make more appeal for win purposes. |

Both wins have been on soft including this race two years ago when with Charles Byrnes; much lower mark nowadays and just okay runs of late; more needed. |

13th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 4f 46y |
9st 4lb

First reserve; two-time soft ground winner but on a long losing run; not the worst effort at Bellewstown latest and he's on a dangerous mark; could go well if getting a run. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 77y |

Struggled for form since leaving Charles Byrnes in 2023 and no signs of a revival at Down Royal last month; return to slower ground may help and on a career-low mark but he's hard to recommend. |

Maiden has been a regular participant in claimers over hurdles this year, placing twice; fair run in a Perth handicap last month but modest run at Clonmel last week; needs to find more on his chasing debut. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |
11st 0lb |
Basically a bridle horse who doesn't find much when let down, but plenty of strong form and couldn't knock his latest second to an improver at Punchestown where he pulled clear of the rest (2m4f, yielding); doubt he wants this far, but easy track will help and valuable 7lb claimed. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
10st 9lb |
Novice win came at Down Royal last season and pick of this season's handicap form when fourth in 2m4f Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham and held narrow lead when faller two out in 2m4f Tim Duggan Memorial at Limerick over Christmas; didn't stay 3m1f in Thyestes following month and has had time off since; could go well. |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y |

Two good runs at Cheltenham this season, including fourth in the Paddy Power in November, and a creditable second at Limerick on his seasonal debut the previous month; in the lead but beginning to look vulnerable when falling two out in the Tim Duggan at Limerick on latest. |

Hurdle winner but has been well beaten over hurdles/fences of late and isn't easy to fancy until showing more spark; first-time blinkers might help. |

0-13 over hurdles, placed twice; encouragement from Punchestown run in February when far from disgraced under this rider but has plenty on to reverse the form with Mellem judged on latest effort at Leopardstown. |
