8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Five-time Flat winner (including here) is 1-28 over hurdles; last two runs in this sphere poor but shaped well on the level at Killarney four weeks ago; just 1lb above sole hurdles win so place chance but hard to fancy for win purposes given his modest strike-rate. |

Dual chase winner but hasn't won since taking a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024; was second to Femme Magnifique at Tramore and the ground was maybe too soft at Roscommon since; could rebound and be a player. |

29th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 110y |

Two chase wins in 2024 (including a novice over C&D) but it has been slim pickings since then; no joy in 2025 and modest run at Wexford on return from a break on latest; on a dangerous mark but needs a revival. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 99y Class 1 |

Has proved difficult to place since last win in March 2025 and form has taken a downturn of late; has the worst chance at the weights back up in class. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 13lb |
Pulled up in Ascot handicap in November and tailed off on sole outing since in the Champion Chase last month; it's hard to say what sort of form he's in but this C&D brought out the very best in him when runner-up in the Grade 1 Maghull Novices' Chase (good) 12 months ago; could go well back here. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Lacked fluency and ran poorly at Ascot when last seen; ran creditably in C&D handicap the time before but that form is a long way below Champion Chase standard and he's comfortably held by Majborough on Punchestown festival running; has the worst chance on ratings. |

15th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |

Better than ever last year, winning over hurdles twice, including here (2m6f, yielding); 0-12 chasing but stayed on for third over C&D in May after racing wide; and would have got closer at Wexford last time but for repeated jumping errors; place chance if jumps better. |

Maiden hurdler sprang 25-1 shock on belated Flat debut over this trip at Dundalk in December 2023, looking green but seeing it out well; failed to back that up in handicap company off tough opening mark; 4lb lower on turf now but lengthy absence to overcome. |

Has 1-54 career strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022; this year's Flat handicap form is uninspiring but he'll appreciate this ease in grade and is worth a glance in the betting. |

Has poor 1-53 strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022, and was soundly beaten on both outings this year (11.4f/1m2f); might be perked up by the refitted blinkers, though, and Billy Loughnane is a good booking. |

0-9 on the Flat but has hit the crossbar in two recent starts at this sort of trip at Gowran; up 3lb for latest effort though and this is tougher so he's opposable. |

Fourth in a claiming hurdle before having a complete off-day over fences five weeks ago, when he lost lengths at the start and jumped poorly before ultimately unseating; hard to win with at the best of times and now makes debut for a new Irish yard. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 50y |

Not the easiest to win with but often runs well in defeat; beaten 7.75l off 3lb higher on his last start in this sphere at Wexford on penultimate; 9l fourth in claiming hurdle back there on latest; best chase effort came when a 6l third in a Grade 3 novice here (18.5f, gd-yld) in October (Birdie Or Bust second); big chance on that form and has won here over hurdles. |

Decent form over fences last autumn, including third in a Punchestown Grade 3 novice; pulled up in a race of this type over hurdles at Tramore last month; better when fourth off his higher chase mark at this venue on latest; hard to win with. |
