11st 12lb |
Three-time winner over hurdles, the latest at Clonmel last November off 3lb lower (3m, soft); pulled up on latest but has run well here before so could rebound; place shout. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 15y |
11st 2lb |
Won at Clonmel in November off 3lb lower; bounced back to form after three poor runs with a 5l third of 10 over C&D 17 days ago (1.5l behind Toor Khov); not guaranteed to back that effort up but place claims at least if he does. |

Progressive 3m handicap hurdler in 2023-24 season on soft/heavy, winning once at Punchestown off 89; chasing career hasn't gone to plan and was pulled up reverted to hurdles at Limerick on his penultimate run (3m, soft to heavy); best watched until he shows some spark. |

18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Ex-Irish 14-race maiden under rules who has suffered four heavy defeats over fences for this yard, twice in a tongue-tie and once in cheekpieces; no aids today, which might be a straw to cling to, but he has a lot to prove. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 201y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Fifth in last year's Pertemps Final here as a staying hurdler and also ran well here when he had no answer to Wade Out after the final fence in November (3m1f, soft) on chase debut; readily beat a useful rival in a match at Southwell (3m, good to soft) next time and 2m3f offers an excuse for latest start, so he might be capable of better, which is needed. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 31y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Talented staying hurdler who was a good Listed second on his chase debut at Cheltenham (3m1f, soft) in November, and readily beat a useful rival in a match at Southwell (3m, good to soft) last month; drops back in trip today but there can be optimism he'll cope and he's a leading contender. |

Won maiden hurdle at Ffos Las in April 2021; inconsistent since switching from Britain; failed to build on a promising second at Limerick when only sixth back at that venue latest; fair mark if he's on a going day. |

Veteran is a three-time course winner, the latest coming over C&D on testing ground off 111 in March last year; 2lb higher now and has been mostly out of form since but he'll get his preferred underfoot conditions here; can't be dismissed. |

Two chase wins to his name, gained back-to-back on winter ground in 2022; won a point on good-to-yielding in May; undistinguished hurdles form, including last time out in a claimer at Roscommon. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 165y |
11st 5lb |
Handicap hurdle winner here in January 2024 (3m, heavy); some good runs in defeat over fences last season, filling the frame in three of his four runs inc' here off 1lb higher (2m5f, soft to heavy); returned from just over a year off at Navan last time when never better than midfield and pulled up; can get involved if back to his best but a bit to prove now. |

Won 3m handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse two seasons ago; showed signs of developing into a consistent handicap chaser last winter; off for a year but could feature if returning in peak form; arguably the most appealing of three runners for his trainer. |
