1st Nov 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
11yo who appeared to be outstayed when fourth, beaten about 8l, in the Grade 1 Champion Stayers Hurdle at Punchestown (extended 2m7f, yielding) in May; however, that was still a good performance in today's context and he's fit from the Flat; possible player for top Irish stable. |

8st 5lb |
Aged 11 but he's a seriously unexposed, dark horse on Flat; smart hurdles form in Grade 1s in August 2024-May 2025; three Irish maiden races are all he's contested on Flat, when runner-up twice last year (2m/1m6f) and winning by a short head this August (2m) but he's not been hit hard with this opening Flat mark and having Willie Mullins as his trainer demands respect. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Can make the running; superb 2022-23 season was his best over hurdles/fences, including big-field wins at the Cheltenham and Punchestown festivals; a 10yo before his attentions were turned to the Flat and he won twice (2m1f/1m6f) last August/September; the five good handicaps since, however, have seen him comfortably held (last four were over fences); off since April; today's hood is his first ever headgear. |

12st 0lb |
Prolific winner whose last track win came over this trip at Kilbeggan two years ago off 127; won a point-to-point last season and wasn't disgraced back hurdling at Galway latest, staying on late over 3m (good); drops in grade here. |

Winner of 11 races; last two runs have been in hunter chases; younger rivals much preferred in a race of this standard. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 136y |
11st 12lb |
Prolific winner over hurdles (rated 144); did okay over fences last year and was fair third over 3m2f on his return to action at Killarney; stays 3m well, so this trip looks too short, plus he was disappointing when favourite for last year's Mayo National. |

Eight hurdle wins including once at this track; got off the mark over fences in a Kilbeggan beginners' last year before beaten 13l into third in this race; 2lb lower today but can go well fresh so could be involved. |

11th Sep 2023 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 87y |
11st 10lb |
Has won four in a row over hurdles over a variety of trips this summer; has a bit to find on these terms with some of today's rivals but is an improving sort so has to be considered. |
