11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Tongue tied on last two starts; Irish Gold Cup at Leopardstown (3m, soft) in February was also the first time he went beyond 2m5f, when 33-1 and spending most of the race out the back but running on into fourth of 12, beaten 14l; some encouragement might be derived from that but he didn't see it out so well when confronted by 3m2f in the Gold Cup at Cheltenham. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 70y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
He's performed respectably in defeat at the last two Cheltenham Festivals and won a Grade 2 at Down Royal (2m3f, good to yielding) in November; 14l fourth when upped in trip in the Irish Gold Cup (3m, soft) last month and he'll be doing very well if he improves upon that finishing position today. |

2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 100y |
11st 10lb |
Smart performer over shorter distances; ended last season with second to Spindleberry in 2m4f Grade 1 at Fairyhouse; made winning reappearance in five-runner Grade 2 event at Down Royal (2m3f, good to yielding) in November; outpointed by Iroko at Ascot last month; first time beyond 2m5f and tongue-tie tried; vulnerable. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y |
11st 9lb |
Bumper winner is 0-6 over hurdles; not a bad run when a 6l third at Clonmel (2m1f, gd-yld) in April; mixed hurdles and the Flat to no avail since but still early days and ran respectably in a C&D maiden last December; can't discount. |

9th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 66y |
10st 2lb |
Bumper winner on good; had first run on the Flat in June when an eyecatching sixth of 13 behind A Dream To Share at Leopardstown (1m7f, good) after a slow break; poor over hurdles since but not out of things if the ground doesn't soften. |

Good-ground bumper winner; had a run on the Flat in June; placed at Clonmel on his last hurdles start; others look more likely. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Solid record in bumpers but has dismal form figures since switched to hurdles; however, drops to weaker level on return from a break and may improve. |

11st 12lb |
Won 2m2f Downpatrick bumper last season (soft); emerged from over a year's absence when never travelling (pulled up) in Grade 3 Navan novice last month and never sighted since in Fairyhouse maiden; best watched. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Flopped badly when favourite at Warwick last month (bled from the nose) but was one of two to pull clear of the others when second at Doncaster (3m, soft) in January and will be suited by the forecast faster ground here; can feature if back on song. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Eventually overhauled in a sustained duel with the winner at Doncaster (3m) most recently but ran well to sustain his solid record since handicapping; may do better still; possibilities back down in distance. |

2nd 6 |
23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Only 5lb higher than for his Fontwell win last March (2m1f, good) and has returned from a break with competitive runs over 2m4f; whether he'll stay this far remains to be seen but he should have more races in him. |
