25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Eyecatching bumper form before finishing close up in a Grade 2 hurdle for previous yard; hasn't kicked on from an encouraging start for Gordon Elliott, his form tapering off last season after a first (2m) and second (2m6f) over hurdles; ran okay on chase debut at Sligo but no more than that and his jumping was a bit scruffy at times. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 120y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner (beating Addragoole) last year was also fourth in a Grade 2 novice; pulled-up in a Leopardstown Grade 1 novice last February and was poor behind Barry Lyndon next time; needs his best on return/chasing debut. |

22nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Heavy-ground bumper winner last term; won over hurdles on stable debut at Galway (form has been franked) before a close-up third in Thurles novice hurdle; out of his depth in Grade 1 at the Dublin Racing Festival but could be thrown in off 130 on handicap bow. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 0lb |
Rated 130 after five runs over fences without winning; beaten favourite at Cork on handicap chase debut (2m1f, good to yielding); 25l behind in a big-field Listed handicap chase here last time; needs to raise his game but could be best placed to take advantage if the top-rated disappoints. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 75y |
11st 5lb |
Winning hurdler; yet to score over fences; beaten favourite at Cork in his first handicap chase; needs to raise his game in first-time tongue-tie. |
12/1 |

3rd 3 |
6th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 45y |
11st 8lb |
Won his maiden hurdle here and some useful novice chase form; heavily backed last time in a rated novice at Down Royal where he flattened out after travelling well, and yard in better form now. |

Expensive purchase has so far failed to live up to his price tag in bumpers and over hurdles; don't rule out improvement now sent chasing though. |

4th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 180y |
11st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough under this rider at the 15th attempt at Punchestown in December (3m, heavy) when making all in first-time cheekpieces; up 5lb and beaten 16l at Punchestown last time (2m7f, heavy); capable of more. |

26th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 0y |
11st 8lb |
Made the breakthrough under this rider at the 15th attempt at Punchestown (3m, heavy) last time in first-time cheekpieces (retained), making all; up 5lb but decent chance of following up. |

10th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 180y |
11st 4lb |
Back-to-back runner-up finishes at Punchestown at the end of last year/new year were the best of his handicap efforts; three runs since then have been disappointing, finished 24l behind at Wexford last time; can get involved at his best but risky. |
