10st 8lb |
Won a point for this stable in 2022 and a Thurles bumper for Willie Mullins two seasons ago; back with his original trainer now; nothing like the force he was judged on four runs since January. |

11st 0lb |
Very lightly raced 9yo who has won a point and a bumper; one to watch in the betting but he's been pulled up/tailed off this year on his first two hurdle starts, following a long absence. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 10lb |
Maiden hurdle win over 2m4f; 0-6 chasing this term, decent handicap debut run at Leopardstown (2m6f), most recently halfway faller in 3m5f Ulster National; others possibly better handicapped and trip remains an unknown. |
16/1 |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 4f 120y |
11st 6lb |
Maiden hurdle over 2m4f; 0-5 chasing this term, modest placings behind stablemates in two beginners' events; fair effort when fourth at Leopardstown in his first handicap chase; open to improvement, but stablemate Uncle Pat appears more attractively handicapped |
9/1 |

4th 10 |
2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |
10st 4lb |
After winning his maiden hurdle over 2m4f (Fairyhouse) he was pulled up twice; 0-4 chasing this term, modest placings behind stablemates the last twice; doesn't exactly seem thrown in on handicap chase debut (5lb higher than hurdles). |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 8lb |
One of eight for trainer; dual bumper and maiden hurdle winner in 2024; runner-up on chase debut at this venue (2m7f, heavy) before falling four out back here next time; failed to justify 5-6 favouritism at Naas (2m4f, soft to heavy) last time when a 0.5l second behind Spread Boss Ted; now enters handicap chase company. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 0y |
11st 12lb |
One of three for trainer; rated 134 over hurdles; completed a hat-trick (two bumpers/maiden hurdle) in 2024; finished second/third in Graded races over 3m/2m4f; good effort on chasing debut at Punchestown (2m7f, heavy) to take the runner-up spot despite market weakness; fell at four out back at that venue last time; Townend sticks with him and this looks easier than his previous starts. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 61y |

Got off the mark in a C&D handicap in April and ran a solid race in defeat back here next time; below form over 2m at Ballinrobe since but can do better back here over this trip. |

Off the mark when making all off 5lb lower at Clonmel on penultimate (2m4f, yielding); beaten off revised mark back there latest; ran respectably both previous visits to this venue and drop to 2m might suit; not dismissed. |

Mare is now 0-7 in bumpers but has run to a decent enough level of form, most recently front-running fourth at Killarney; can be keen and needs to settle better to see out this trip. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 58y |
11st 12lb |
Ran away with Navan (2m, soft) maiden on second start for this yard last season and solid enough effort in Listed handicap at Fairyhouse afterwards; back from 10 months' absence when pulled up in 2m Naas handicap in February, having raced prominently to three out; better for that run but fair bit to find on ratings here. |

29th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Has some useful form over hurdles and on the Flat, though has been tailed off in both disciplines since returning from a break of 72 days; if back on song, he would have a part to play in this company on chase debut. |

11st 10lb |
Record 5-7 (hurdles/fences) for current yard and 3-3 since ridden by Charlie Deutsch; looked value for more than the winning margin at Ludlow (2m4f, soft) most recently; respected with further progress possible. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner; fell when appearing to have it in the bag on his chase debut and perhaps remembering that tumble when below par next time; has since got himself firmly back on track with wins at Leicester (2m, good) and Hereford (2m5f, soft); benefited from sitting off a strong pace last time and has gone up 10lb, but looks a chaser on the upgrade. |
