30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 75y |
11st 11lb |
Inconsistent and just one win from his nine chase starts but that came in the Grade 3 Dan & Joan Moore Memorial Handicap at Fairyhouse (2m1f, yielding) in January; weakened when fourth of 14 in a 2m1f DRF handicap, only 3l behind runner-up Golden Joy; Grand Annual faller. |

11st 0lb |
Inconsistent and just one win from his eight chase starts but that came in a Grade 3 novice at Fairyhouse (2m1f, yielding) in January; weakened when fourth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (2m1f, soft) last month and today's forecast better ground could help; looks the type who may prove well suited by this big-field scenario; not discounted for top Irish stable. |

2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 0y |

Struggled in his first two handicap chase attempts before getting the hang of things with experience; shaped more encouragingly when third behind Drumgill at Fairyhouse in November, and now on an upward curve following an emphatic defeat of stablemate More Coko at the same venue; fair chance of confirming form with the second on these terms. |

Plenty to like about his debut when beating a Willie Mullins-trained favorite in a Limerick bumper in October 2022; off for 15 months before chasing home the Mullins-trained Western Diego at Fairyhouse, well clear of the third Undeniable Alibi who has won since at Clonmel. |

Dual bumper winner in France; has contested some good races since joining Willie Mullins with his best effort a sixth to King Of Kingsfield in a Leopardstown maiden at Christmas; last time was disappointing but the ability is there to play a leading role. |

2-14 over hurdles; is 10lb above last win but has hit the frame in each of his last four runs; beaten just 2.75l at Limerick latest (21.5f, soft); new visor could eke out more, but he would prefer softer ground. |

Won Navan handicap hurdle (2m4f, soft) in January of last year off 102 before following up in Fairyhouse novice (2m, heavy); moderate seasonal return at Punchestown but pair of runner-up finishes followed at 2m4f/3m; fair fourth at Naas (15.5f) on latest; solid chance in first-time blinkers. |

Winner of a Navan (2m4f, soft) handicap hurdle in January last year off 102 and followed up next time in a Fairyhouse novice contest (2m, heavy); moderate seasonal return at Punchestown but good effort when second at Navan in December (2m4f, soft to heavy); tried 3m for first time at Limerick later that month and saw out the trip well for second; he's solid. |

Yet to get his head in front this summer but fine efforts in defeat in the Tribes at Galway and when beaten 1l over 2m1f at this venue behind the subsequent Galway hurdle winner; creeping up the weights and hasn't been shaping as though this longer trip is what he wants. |
