Three-time course winner who was just denied over C&D off 60 last July; nothing like the same standard of form since then; never a factor behind Beat The Devil last month. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 12lb |
Three course wins at 7f/1m and is now 2lb below his last winning mark from January last year; knocking on the door here recently, placing in four of his last five runs (three over C&D); took third in a higher grade last week; leading chance. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
8st 13lb |
Three course wins at 7f/1m and is now 2lb below his last winning mark from January last year; consistent runs since the turn of the year, placing in three of his four runs; left with plenty to do last time before running on to take a distant second behind Aingeal Dorcha; decent chance off same mark and kind draw, but this is a higher level. |

2nd 9 (10) |

Three-time course winner at 7f/1m; consistent lately; last two runs at this trip suggest he can be competitive here; took him a while to get an opening when running on into fourth behind Aingeal Dorcha last time; definite chance of turning the tables. |

Turf record is poor (0-26) but more effective on AW (2-25); this year's form hasn't offered much but is 8lb below last winning mark so can't be totally discounted. |

9-32 at Dundalk, but just 1-28 on turf; followed up a third-place finish at Cork (1m, good to yielding) by filling the same spot at the Curragh (7f, good), hampered before running on late; on a nice mark if putting it all together. |

9st 7lb |
Two-time winner last year, including on yielding over C&D off 51 and followed up off 60 a month later; went close off that mark at Killarney back in July (11.5f, good); down to 56 after below par efforts the last twice; could bounce back, though very soft ground would be a worry. |

A close second at Killarney (1m3f, good) in June is much of the best of this season's efforts; wouldn't be the percentage call, especially should it rain. |
