Followed up a handicap hurdle win on New Year's Day with a first chase success at Clonmel in February but lesser form in two runs since; his mark might be on the high side at present. |

10st 7lb |
Two wins at Hexham (3m, good to soft) last year and on a handy mark on that form; soft ground may not have suited here last time but he's now been well below par on his last two starts and has to get back on track. |

Veteran has won this twice, including last year off 3lb higher; however, he has been pulled up on his last three starts so major revival required. |

8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 150y |

Dual hurdle winner got off the mark over fences at Down Royal last month, beating Hardy Diamond by 1.75l; should run well again raised 3lb. |

Dual winning hurdler is 0-13 chasing; one of his better efforts came at Thurles in February when a 9.75l third (2m6f, soft to heavy); didn't back that up when tailed off at Limerick last time (2m7f, heavy). |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 1f 80y |
11st 3lb |
Made all to win by 15l over C&D in August, her sole win; was well-held over fences since and has a 9lb higher mark to cope with today but a 7lb claimer helps so has to be considered. |
4/1 |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
10st 4lb |
Winner of fifth point start; two chasing runs under rules have seen him tailed off and pulled up; nonetheless, there is encouragement to be found in his recent hurdles form with back-to-back runner-up finishes before a wide margin victory at Sligo last time (3m1f, good); he is a huge player if he can bring that form to fences. |
6/1 |

20th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 118y |
10st 4lb |
Now 0-23 over hurdles but runner-up the last twice on good ground, clear with winner over 3m1f at Kilbeggan and similarly over 2m7f at Bangor last month in today's headgear combination; should again be thereabouts and yard in much better form now. |

Never really in the race but stayed on to finish a remote fourth in a Listowel handicap hurdle last time; might be ridden a bit handier in this quite weak contest and could well do better for an in-form stable. |

0-11 and hasn't really shown enough yet to suggest he can win over hurdles; slightly better effort in a handicap chase when last seen in January; best watched on return. |

Pulled up when last seen over hurdles at Fairyhouse in October; always looked outpaced on sharp tracks under hold-up tactics previously; needs to find major improvement to figure. |
