30th Apr 2026 Yielding 4m 1f 11y |
11st 12lb |
Close second to Busselton here last year on cross-country debut; looked in fine shape when beating The Goffer and subsequent Cheltenham winner Final Orders over 3m here in November; pulled up over hurdles the following month; dropped away from the 23rd of 31 obstacles at Cheltenham; obvious chance if on song again. |

Untested on this track but close second in La Touche Cup on cross-country debut at Punchestown (4m1f, good to yielding) last May and looked in very good nick when beating The Goffer and Final Orders to win over 3m on that Bank course (soft to heavy) in November; pulled up over hurdles the following month and 3lb out of the weights today but still considered. |

Naas winner early last year for former yard after a long absence (2m3f, heavy); backed into favourite when tailed off on stable debut at that venue in January; capable of a better showing than that. |

Bolted up on yard debut on the back of an absence in January and bounced back from a lesser run when beaten roughly 2l at Fairyhouse earlier this month; both wins on heavy but versatile with regards to conditions and drop back in trip fine too. |

11st 9lb |
The winner of four points and an Irish maiden hurdle in 2021; forgettable efforts in hunter chases at Cheltenham before finishing a tailed-off last of three in a handicap at Market Rasen; another tweak on the headgear front; others safer. |

Multiple point winner who signed off on a low note for David Christie last December and didn't enjoy either trip to Cheltenham for these connections, running out early in a debuted visor latest (retained); no ground issues, but hard to be confident about present attainment level. |
