1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 45y |
11st 12lb |
Enjoyed a standout season, highlighted by landing Grade 3 honours at Naas in January (2m, heavy); has been found out upped to Grade 1 level twice this term, 19l behind Lossiemouth in the Morgiana Hurdle (16.5f, soft to heavy) and no chance when unseated at the last in the Hatton's Grace (2m4f, yielding to soft); below his best in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 last time; hard to see him being involved. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |
11st 6lb |
Better than ever this season and has contested two Grade 1s; appreciated the drop in class when making all in a Grade 3 at Naas (2m, heavy) and this 7yo is a good bet to give his running (stays this far); very sound jumper. |

25th Jan 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 190y |
11st 3lb |
Better than ever this season, winning over 2m3f at Punchestown and has run well in defeat since chasing home clear-cut winners at same venue in both Grade 1 Morgiana Hurdle and when over 8l off front-running Fabiolo on New Year's Eve (2m3f); seems sure to run another solid race (running in colours of Limestone Lad). |

Still a maiden after 22 starts under rules; struggled in two chase starts early last year; faces a huge task after a long break. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 6lb |
Maiden went close to landing breakthrough win at Leopardstown (3m1f, yielding) in December but hasn't backed that up, most recently never counting when modest enough fourth at Fairyhouse; remains opposable. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |

Maiden went close to landing breakthrough win at Leopardstown (24.5f, yielding) in December off 3lb lower; unseated over 2m in a beginners' here, then finished a modest fourth over 3m6f at Cheltenham; 6lb lower here but needs to find extra to shed the maiden tag. |

11st 1lb |
Maiden; 0-8 in chases; runner-up in the Dublin National over 3m4f at Leopardstown last March and over 3m at the same track in December, both on yielding ground; 2m in cheekpieces did not work out last time; right back up in trip today but needs a big career best. |

11st 12lb |
Any or all of the returning cheekpieces, switch back from fences and career-low mark inspired this month's Market Rasen success (2m7f, soft); worse off with near-4l third Ramo following a 2lb rise, but value for further that day having idled late and live claims again here. |

11st 12lb |
Won three handicap hurdles last year at 2m-2m4f, including one here over 2m on good ground (later disqualified for banned substance); should strip fitter for first run back from a break at Listowel; not discounted. |

Won handicaps at Kilbeggan, Tipperary and Leopardstown from 2m-2m4f last year, though was disqualified from the first due to a banned substance; 9lb higher on return but has won when fresh so has to be respected, especially if strong in the market. |

Back-to-back handicap chase winner at Clonmel in October; unable to take advantage of lower hurdles mark in four recent runs but fair third of 18 at Punchestown (3m, good) on latest; big player again despite inability to win over timber to date a concern. |

Back-to-back h'cap chase winner in October on good to yielding; unable to take advantage of lower hurdles mark in three recent runs over hurdles; probably wouldn't have done better than fourth when faller at Clonmel last time; has his chance again but inability to win over timber to date is worrying. |
