21st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 50y |
11st 4lb |
Exploited lower hurdles mark at Galway (2m6f, yielding) in October; struggled in the Troytown Chase when last seen but remains 8lb below his chase mark so can't be dismissed on ground he handles. |

25th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 200y |
10st 10lb |
2m4f maiden hurdle winner got off the mark over fences when easily winning a beginners' chase at this meeting last year; following month well held in Grade 2 novice at Punchestown and has been absent since; potentially interesting back hurdling off 15lb lower mark. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 104y |
10st 5lb |
Made winning return in 2m5f Cork handicap in November (yielding) and given winter off until not looking to stay 3m6f in National Hunt Chase at Cheltenham in March; interesting contender back in trip here with ground to suit. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 201y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after scoring over an extended 2m6f at Limerick (good) in May and moving nearly 7l clear on the run-in over 2m5f at Cork (yielding) in November; the latter is easily his best form but his chase career began with a strong finish over an extended 3m1f last March, which sparks interest for this test. |

22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 160y |

Winner of maiden hurdle at Navan (2m4f, heavy); some creditable handicap efforts in that sphere; 120-rated hurdler was an eyecatching second on chase debut at Wexford (25.5f, good to yielding) on latest; considered. |

Better chaser than hurdler; couple of wins over 2m6f last summer, but much stiffer task here after a layoff and O'Keeffe prefers yard's other runner. |

29th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 146y |
11st 12lb |
Dual hurdle winner but this winning pointer was always likely to do better over fences and she jumped well when winning a beginners' for mares at Tramore (2m6f, good); useful RPR suggests this mark will be fine. |

Second to a useful type in Fairyhouse maiden 14 months ago; ran poorly on handicap debut the following month; given a break after being pulled up at Tramore last June; satisfactory run in first-time cheekpieces in a claiming hurdle at Clonmel last month; could go close |

One win from 20 starts over hurdles; that win came over 2m4f at Punchestown on heavy ground in February last year off 78; good effort when third of 24 at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day (2m4f, yielding) but way below that level at Navan; a little hard to trust. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Prevailed in a big field at Galway (2m6f, good) on chase debut but has failed to back up that form since and was particularly disappointing in October when bidding for a second win at the Cheltenham Showcase meeting; wears first-time headgear; less solid than others. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |

Reserve; won four times (once on good here) as a novice hurdler last season before pulling up at 14-1 in the 3m Grade 1 novice event here; won chase debut at the Galway festival (2m6f) last August but chase career has gone badly the wrong way since, latest start 11 days ago; returns to hurdling in first-time cheekpieces; next to no exposure in handicaps but low on the list. |

Four-time hurdles winner with a liking for a sound surface and staying trips; had the going in his favour when making a winning chase debut over 2m6f at the Galway festival last August; disappointing when well fancied for a 3m1f contest at Cheltenham in October; unseated at the first at Musselburgh early this month. |
