Durable veteran has won twice at this venue; back in form at Kilbeggan recently after a dismal spell that saw him fail to complete in four consecutive races; eight-time winner remains capable when on song. |

Might have appreciated the three month break when returning to some sort of form in a 3m1f handicap hurdle here last month; could run well but others look that bit more likely. |

8th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 6f 111y |
11st 11lb |
Sole win from 20 attempts over fences came in a Clonmel beginners' chase in 2023; second on seasonal return at Wexford in July; pulled up in the Summer Plate at Market Rasen; suffered the same fate at Killarney last time. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 180y |
10st 4lb |
Sole win from 20 attempts over fences came in a Clonmel beginners' chase in 2023; however, he has been running well in defeat, with several placed finishes including on seasonal return at Wexford in July (2m3f, good); pulled up at Market Rasen when last seen. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
Irish challenger; 3lb out of the weights and over two years since he last won (overall strike-rate of 2-33); however, good second at Wexford on his return from a break and he's one who won't mind what the weather does. |

11st 1lb |
Four-time hurdle winner also won a novice chase in 2023 for this yard; subsequently lost his form and back with this yard after a spell with Moses McCabe; seems best watched. |

Five wins for Gordon Elliott; ran like he needed it on stable bow at Wexford; probably best watched at present. |

11st 12lb |
Has gone the wrong way since winning the 2024 Cork National; signs of a revival over hurdles at Sligo on penultimate but didn't build on it back there on latest; remains 5lb above his last chase win and failed to complete last two chase starts. |
16/1 |

12th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 121y |
11st 2lb |
Lost his form badly after winning the Cork National in 2024, but bounced back over 3m2f here (good) last time in first-time blinkers when runner-up after idling when leading (1.75l ahead of Je Suis); form of that race is questionable, but he has a notably low hurdles mark if he can repeat that effort. |
7/1 |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y |
11st 11lb |
Lost his form badly after winning the Cork National in 2024 and is hard to fancy on recent poor hurdle runs; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
33/1 |
