13th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Ex Henry de Bromhead; unseated rider back under rules at Hexham on penultimate start but bounced back to justify favouritism at Ludlow (3m, good; 7l winner) the following week; top rated and tough to beat if in similar form. |
4/5 |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Fairly useful chase form for Henry de Bromhead as recently as winter 2024-25; unseated on hunter chase debut at Hexham last Monday but that was after two solid efforts in points and he should have a future in this sphere; respected. |

Fairly useful chase form for Henry de Bromhead as recently as winter 2024-25; he's finished in the first three in two points this year and could be involved returning to rules action. |

23rd Mar 2025 Good 3m 0f 150y |
11st 9lb |
Strike-rate of 1-10 over both hurdles and fences; gave it a good go from the front in a 2m6f handicap chase at Punchestown last time (heavy) and the recent rain has done her prospects no harm; considered. |

13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Reserve; returned to form when second in mares' handicap over 2m6f at Punchestown last month and she stays 3m; however, this 8yo is just 1-10 over fences and there's a suspicion this task will prove too competitive. |
33/1 |

3rd Feb 2025 Soft To Heavy 2m 6f 9y |
10st 13lb |
Is 1-9 over fences; ran alright on her seasonal return at Listowel but two of her last three runs have been poor and she didn't go with much enthusiasm when pulled up on latest at Fairyhouse; others appeal more. |

On losing run since Clonmel win in January 2023; failed to complete last four starts for Philip Rothwell; best watched on first run for new yard. |

26th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 111y |

1-8 over hurdles and 0-12 over fences, though runner-up five times; he is prone to mistakes and this handicap will take some winning. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 0lb |
Off the mark at 19th attempt chasing last month when forcing tactics adopted in 3m2f Down Royal handicap, ready success on good ground; 7lb rise leaves him just 1lb out of the handicap which is negated by rider's claim; interesting if ground continues to dry out. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 50y |
11st 0lb |
Hurdle winner is yet to win over fences in 18 starts but ran a fine race at Clonmel last time over nearly 3m; stepping up in trip will be a help and can be involved off the same mark. |
7/1 |

26th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 122y |
11st 10lb |
Still seeking a first chase win after 17 attempts, runner-up three times and has run creditably in the last two editions of the 3m6f Portertstown Chase at Fairyhouse; others seem more likely unless cheekpieces do the trick. |

0-16 over fences; went close off much reduced mark at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) in February and has claims here if judged on that form but didn't fire at Hexham last month. |

Off the mark (first-time cheekpieces) in 2m6f Downpatrick handicap in May off 100 but well held since, latest in similar contest in August; withdrawn over C&D last month due to good ground so may not have his ground here either and yard also have a strong contender in Goodie Girl. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Hurdle/chase winner in Ireland but on a losing run now and, although he ran better when third of four finishers at Exeter recently than he had on his yard debut there, a few more pounds off his back wouldn't go amiss. |
16/1 |

3rd 4 |
7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 161y Class 4 |

Flat, hurdle and chase winner in Ireland; however, went off 150-1 on stable debut here three weeks ago (2m5f handicap hurdle) and failed to complete; the most exposed of these. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 137y Class 4 |

Flat, hurdle and chase winner in Ireland; however, the latest of those victories was in July 2024 and the handicapper has taken no chances with his opening British mark; he may be best watched. |

2nd Feb 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Second on chase debut in October (2m3f, soft) but finished 0-9 for Gordon Elliott, not always having much luck; heavy defeat at 50-1 three weeks ago on first run for new yard; usual cheekpieces are restored; bit to prove. |
16/1 |

12th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 179y Class 4 |

Has left Gordon Elliott with a 0-7 record over hurdles (placed once) and 0-2 over fences, not always having much luck; second on chase debut in October (2m3f, soft) and it was 3m on heavy ground when he pulled up in November latest; cheekpieces on last six starts but not today; Henrietta Knight's first runner since 2012 and of some interest judged on those two placings. |
9/1 |

7th Nov 2023 Heavy 3m 0f 107y |

Initial promise over hurdles but failed to complete in his last three starts before an encouraging chase debut behind shorter-priced stablemate Jenny Flex at Downpatrick a month ago. |
