Progressive sort who seemed to relish the step up in trip at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day and that form has been boosted by the runner-up winning since; won in better style than the winning margin suggested that day and there could be more to come from this point winner stepping up in trip; seemingly down the order on jockey bookings. |

Bumper and hurdles winner has been disappointing in six chase starts, jumping poorly; well held by Pray Tell on Punchestrown running. |

Bumper and 2m4f maiden hurdle winner last season; well beaten on handicap debut (upped to 3m1f) in December and his two attempts over fences since have not gone at all well; headgear is now enlisted; needs a radical revival but he's also unexposed. |

24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 156y |
11st 12lb |
Bred to make a chaser and he got off the mark in this sphere in a Cork novice (17.5f, good) latest, although his jumping needs to improve; sheer determination got him up to win but he won't get away with such mistakes on his handicap debut over fences. |

Has run well in his three handicap hurdles, the last two in cheekpieces; as good as any of these in that discipline and bred to make a chaser. |

Promise in bumpers last year on decent ground; much more testing conditions in first three hurdle runs last season possibly did not suit; close up in third when favourite at Down Royal in his second handicap; likely contender over this longer trip. |

Rated 139 over hurdles; made all for three wins over hurdles last year; career best when winning a 20-runner Leopardstown handicap last Christmas (2m4f, good to yielding); bombed out on his first try over fences at Ballinrobe last time (2m1f, good); is better than that. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |
12st 1lb |
Dual hurdles winner; gained first chase success at Killarney (20.5f, good to yielding) when keeping on well to score by 0.5l; now 7lb higher but this represents an ease in grade and he's ground versatile. |

Dual hurdle winner who is 0-8 over fences; still made favourite last time at Thurles (2m5f) and might have threatened but for a late mistake; considered, though softer ground is probably his preference. |

Showed nothing in his first five starts under rules but ran by far his best race when sixth of 13 at Wexford (3m, good to yielding) behind Bigira on handicap debut last month; that was his first try at this trip in this sphere and he might have been closer but for a jumping error three from home. |

Sholokhov gelding; closely related to winners Barney From Tyanee (2m4f hurdle) and Miss Butterfly (point); dam unraced half-sister to smart bumper/2m-3m hurdle/chase winner Woodland Opera; may need further than this. |
