22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |
11st 10lb |
Several near misses before getting off the mark in spectacular fashion over 3m7f at Punchestown in April; up 12lb for that and was unable to make any impression in the Midlands National at Kilbeggan; far from an easy task here conceding weight over a trip possibly short of his best but clearly a big player. |

11st 9lb |
Several near misses before getting off the mark in spectacular fashion over 3m7f at Punchestown in April; up 12lb for that and extreme distances may well be what he wants, but this trip should be fine and he is a leading contender. |

Bumper/hurdles winner is 0-8 chasing but has being going close in handicaps, notably second in 3m4f National Trial here in February and when chasing home 5l winner Born Braver in 3m5f Ulster National at Downpatrick last time; 5lb better off with that rival here. |

Narrowly denied in a Downpatrick bumper in August; hasn't looked quite as effective over shorter trips on slower ground since; may be one for handicaps at this point. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 12lb |
Veteran went close in a 2m3f bumper (good) here two years ago and returned to this track on both starts last year when just okay form over hurdles; returns from 14 months' absence but not discounted in a weak race. |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
10st 13lb |
Veteran went close in a 2m3f bumper (good) here last July in this headgear combination; well beaten minus the hood on return from 312 days off in a 2m3f maiden hurdle here (good); will strip fitter now and the hood returns but lots more needed. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Bolted up at Ayr (3m, heavy) in December on third chase start; well beaten back there last month but made a bad mistake six out; he'll be in the picture if rediscovering the form of his December win. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won an Irish point in May 2024 (3m, good to yielding); sound run when second in three-finisher handicap on chase debut at Hexham earlier this month; cheekpieces now tried; a possible. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Winning pointer but he's generally struggled under rules including in three hurdle runs at Ayr (3m/2m4f) early this year; still lightly raced and now goes handicapping over fences but he needs improvement after 209 days off. |

Not much promise over hurdles and well-beaten off 91 and 89 in last two starts in that sphere, including here over 2m6f; can only be watched on chasing debut. |

30th Aug 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Has shaped better in maidens since the blinkers were fitted but was beaten 90l at Downpatrick this month; stable has had no winner since May 2022 and this gelding has very little chance on recent form. |

Flat-bred gelding by Born To Sea; half-brother to winners Aspen Darling (5f-6f 2yo including Group 3) and Konstantin (prolific 6f-1m including in Bahrain); dam unraced sister to fairly useful 6f 2yo winner Escape Plan. |
