15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 50y |
11st 6lb |
Five-time winner under rules (three over hurdles); took second behind progressive rival on return from 87-day break at Punchestown in October (2m7f, good to yielding); another positive run when third over fences last time at Down Royal (3m, good to yielding); consistent sort but there may be better handicapped contenders. |

2-9 over fences and was lots to like about his return from an 87-day break in a Punchestown handicap hurdle 18 days ago; the forecast rain is a concern but he's big player on return to chasing if it misses. |

In fine form since returning from points' in March, relishing stamina trips to win at Kilbeggan both over hurdles and last week in 3m1f handicap chase under confident ride; feasibly still on a workable mark and likely major player again back hurdling. |

Some decent placed form over fences last year, most notably when 6.5l second to Kyle Valley at Tramore (2m6f, yld) in handicap chase off 79 in May; proved he's in good heart when runner-up in point-to-point last month so he could figure. |
