1st Jun 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 0y |
11st 2lb |
Hasn't been at his best since winning last year's Grade 2 Red Mills at Gowran but a couple of subsequent runs read well, especially in the context of today's easier assignment; unlikely to be far away; any rain welcomed. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
11st 10lb |
Grade 2 Red Mills Chase winner at Gowran last season hasn't recaptured that level of form this term, although third in same event was a solid run; last of three in 3m Grade 3 Cork conditions event on latest, back to probably his optimum trip here so considered. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 100y |
11st 8lb |
Grade 2 chase winner was poor at Tramore on New Year's Day but was much better when third to a stablemate at Gowran last time; has to give away plenty of weight but is still the one to beat with a top rider aboard; hasn't won over this trip but looks likely to stay. |

took keen hold, in touch with leaders, went second from 3 out, mistake and lost ground 2 out, soon pushed along, steadied last, kept on but no match for winner |

14th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Second-season chaser; no top weight has won this since Dublin Flyer in 1995 but he's a genuine Grade 2 performer (at least) who wasn't beaten at all far under top weight at the Cheltenham Festival (2m4f, soft) and his class should see him competitive for a long way, at the least; still only a 6yo and the chosen one of Paul Townend; jumps well; big player. |
10/1 |

5th 1 |
16th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Second-season chaser who has shown smart form in Grade 2 events over 2m4f the last twice, proving unlucky at Thurles (would likely have won but for final-fence fall) then second at Gowran behind Ryanair contender Janadil; still unexposed at this distance; seems versatile ground-wise; has the ability to play a major role on handicap debut. |

11st 12lb |
Three chase wins, including a 2m7f Grade 3 at Punchestown last October; often highly tried when with Mouse Morris; creditable third in the Kerry National on stable debut; fair chance with 5lb off again; trainer (responsible for last year's winner) also has Weveallbeencaught in the line-up. |

Three chase wins, including a 2m7f Grade 3 at Punchestown last October; often highly tried when with Mouse Morris; his new trainer knows what it takes to win this; possible each-way value. |

3rd May 2025 Yielding 3m 0f 90y |

Three chase wins, including a 2m7f Grade 3 at this venue last October, beating Minella Indo; ran well for a long way before weakening in the Cross Country Handicap at Cheltenham; never threatened in the Topham. |

28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 90y |
11st 3lb |
Modest strike rate over fences (2-19); smart handicap form; second in the 2024 Topham; won at the Punchestown festival last April; out of his depth in the John Durkan on reappearance; last of three in the Howden at Ascot, squeezed for room and failed to pick up from the last; justified his second-favourite status when chasing home Appreciate It at Thurles. |

Modest strike over fences (2-18); however, one of those wins came in fine style in a handicap at the Punchestown festival (2m4f, yielding) last April; no impact when 50-1 in the John Durkan on reappearance; outsider of three in the Howden at Ascot, got squeezed for room and failed to pick up form the last; capable of better |

11th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
Smart novice chaser in 2021-22 season; lightly raced since; pulled up last spring on final two runs for Gordon Elliott (Pertemps Final/Grand National); sold last May for £8,500; this 10yo is probably best watched on his stable debut, for which he wears first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces. |

Smart novice chaser two seasons back; 613 days off before this term, easily best of five runs since when beaten a neck in a Pertemps qualifier over hurdles but he was pulled up in the Final last month; 100-1 when pulled up in Irish Grand National. |

Capable of smart form for Willie Mullins and landed the Cotswold Chase two years ago; however, badly lacks recent match practice having been absent since finishing third in the Bobbyjo last February; remains with same owner; market may offer further guidance. |
