1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 45y |
11st 12lb |
Unseen since taking the runner-up spot behind Kopek Des Bordes in last season's Supreme Novices' Hurdle (2m, good to soft); that was just his fourth hurdles start after placing in his opening two maiden hurdles at Leopardstown and Fairyhouse and comfortably winning a Listed novice hurdle (soft) over this C&D before his Cheltenham run; contender if running to his best but it would be a huge performance to win this after 416 days off. |

11th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Respectable third in sole Grade 1 attempt (final start in bumpers); opened his hurdles account with an effortless Listed novice win at Punchestown (2m, soft; went clear on the bridle) last month when ridden by Sean Flanagan for the first time and settling better than previously in this sphere; now goes in first-time hood as an extra measure, which allies with the likely strong pace; peaking at the right time and looks set for an interesting rematch with Workahead, who beat him at Leopardstown in December; owner-trainer landed this prize two years ago with a horse ridden by Michael O'Sullivan, who very sadly lost his life recently and is honoured in the race title today; a fitting success is conceivable, with further improvement likely. |

20th Feb 2025 Soft 1m 7f 211y |
11st 5lb |
Smart bumper form, winning at Navan (beat C'Est Ta Chance) and Naas before fine third to Redemption Day in Grade 1 event here; reversed form with that rival when second in a strong maiden on hurdles debut at Leopardstown; good chance here on the strength of seconds to the promising Kawaboomga at Fairyhouse; room for improvement in his jumping. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 213y |
11st 10lb |
Won a 2m beginners' chase at Wexford in October; went close in a 2m Grade 2 here in November; after a break, well below his best at Thurles in March; career-best with the help of new hold-up tactics when outsider of eight in Grade 1 Fairyhouse, beating Kappa Jy Pyke; third in a Grade 1 novice hurdle here a year ago; fair chance of staying this far. |

11st 10lb |
Smart novice hurdler at up to 3m last season; made a solid chasing debut at Gowran over 2m4f; won over 2m at Wexford in October; went close in a 2m Grade 2 contest at Punchestown in November; well below his best over an extended 2m5f at Thurles last time; faces a stiff task at this level. |

10st 13lb |
Won a 2m maiden hurdle at Wexford last year and often ran well in defeat in graded novice company up to 3m; made a solid chasing debut at Gowran over 2m4f; no problem with a drop to 2m at Wexford in October; went close in a 2m Grade 2 contest at Punchestown in November, no issue with a return to a longer trip. |

11st 8lb |
One of two for trainer; yet to win over fences after five starts, but some positive efforts behind quality opposition, including when 0.75l behind Funiculi Funicula at Cork last time (2m1f, yielding) under this rider; place chance. |

2nd 7 |
5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 45y |
11st 12lb |
Has won a point, two bumpers and a maiden hurdle plus placed in two Grade 1 novice hurdles last year; solid in defeat in his first three chase runs but below that form in a classy Cheltenham handicap last time; looks the better of the Elliott pair and a big player even down in trip. |

Cork bumper winner on debut last season but didn't manage to progress in three subsequent bumper runs; entitled to come on from tailed off Punchestown return but has a bit to find; new trip. |

Readily landed a bumper on debut at Cork 13 months ago; did not really step up on that in two subsequent runs; off for nine months but his best form is when fresh and the ground should be ideal. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
10st 12lb |
Struggled after winning a bumper on debut; staged a revival last summer when placed in three maiden hurdles; well backed and ran creditably in a Cork rated novice hurdle last time when third (2m2f, good); getting the hang of things and should be thereabouts. |

Two previous trainers; struggled after winning a bumper on debut; staged a revival last summer when placed in three maiden hurdles (including over 2m4f here), setting the pace each time; ran well in decent Flat maiden here last month on first start for Kevin Coleman and won't mind good ground; 1lb wrong. |
