Two wins include 2m6f Downpatrick novice last summer but no impact as yet in handicaps, latest when reportedly never travelling at Navan; cheekpieces now tried but may want better ground. |

11st 7lb |
Seventh of 20 in Pertemps Series Qualifier at Cheltenham last month; that was his handicap debut and he's not obviously well treated but he's unexposed; it's notable he's the yard's first-string. |

Promising in bumpers in spring 2021 and returned from a long absence with two hurdle wins this summer (2m/2m6f); shade disappointing when only fourth of five at Killarney this month but remains unexposed; no surprise if he features on handicap debut. |

Four-time hurdles winner achieved a peak rating of 129 in that sphere; 0-8 over fences and rated 114; pulled up at Fairyhouse on final 2025 start, and badly out of form over hurdles before that. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 90y |
11st 12lb |
Decent sort at his best, career-best performance when close second in last season's 2m5f Topham at Aintree; very lightly raced this season, most recently running well for long way in same event before fading from last; type who could go well here if taking to the banks (won only point-to-point). |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 6lb |
Well below his best on both runs this season, the latest at Leopardstown in December; however, he produced a career-best performance when a close second in this 12 months ago (good to soft), pulling clear with Gentleman De Mee, and the return to Aintree could spark a revival; on the shortlist. |

Better known as a chaser now and ran big race over the big Aintree fences in April (2m5f, good to soft); 1lb lower for this first hurdle run since May 2024 but this different test may not show him in quite the same light. |

Modest sort outran his mark in a 2m6f novice here in July but 28-race maiden can't be relied upon to reproduce that here. |

Failed to prosper in top staying handicaps after winning the 2024 Troytown for Gordon Elliott; should show the benefit of a point-to-point run at Oldtown in February. |
