Mixing hurdling and chasing in 2024; beat Shadow Rider by 2.5l at Cork (2m3f, soft to heavy) in March off 126; beaten 5.75l off revised mark of 132 subsequently at Punchestown; well-beaten on latest after a break at Chepstow; will come on for that but has a bit to prove off his current rating |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
11st 8lb |
0-8 over fences and hasn't won since scoring over hurdles at Ayr in April 2024; failed to complete in two of three starts this season and beaten 63l at Leopardstown when he did get around; top yard and mark tumbling but hard to make a case for on form. |

Point, bumper and dual hurdles winner has been out of form in final runs of last season and outings in this; pulled up on seasonal debut at Cork and tailed off in a grade 3 handicap at Leopardstown when last seen at 80-1; needs to come back to his best. |

Sole win from 15 starts came at Punchestown in 2023 off 105; didn't run badly on seasonal return in a Listed handicap hurdle here (2m4f, heavy) but stopped quickly and pulled up at Navan next time (2m4f, soft to heavy); ran one of his best races last time when headed late on into second here (2m, heavy); return to this trip is no issue and place chance with a repeat. |

11st 4lb |
Former Grade 2-winning hurdler and came good in second stint chasing last summer with wins at Kilbeggan (beating Thecompanysergeant) and a Grade 3 novice event at this venue; warmed up with fourth behind Gaelic Arc at Kilbeggan; other younger rivals are preferred. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 51y |
11st 12lb |
10yo a former Grade 2-winning hurdler and came good in second stint chasing last summer with wins in C&D beginners' and in Grade 3 Galway novice; stiffer task on return in February, none too fluent and soon beaten in Grade 2 Kempton novice; cheekpieces worn the last twice now discarded for handicap debut and may just need this. |

22nd Feb 2025 Good 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
10yo who returns from a break and possibly isn't the force of old (3m Grade 1 hurdle runner-up in December 2022) but he's won when back over fences for his last two starts, most recently a Grade 3 novice at Galway (2m2f, good) last August; not ruled out in view of his back-class. |

11st 4lb |
Three hurdle wins and ran a fine race in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham, beaten only 8l; unluckily unseated at Punchestown last week; his best chase effort of three came at Gowran in February; gets weight from some of his rivals today and has a solid chance. |

Three hurdle wins including at this track and ran respectably in this race in 2024; mixing chasing with hurdles after returning from an absence this season; not a bad run in the Martin Pipe last time; needs a bit more. |

Two wins over hurdles but 0-6 chasing on soft ground, reportedly struck into at Gowran last time; some encouragement at same track previously; longer trip and better ground could see improvement; 1lb wrong. |

Two-time hurdles winner is 0-4 over the bigger obstacles; reverts to chasing after two poor efforts over timber; pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown when last seen in May 2024 in first-time cheekpieces (discarded); rated 6lb lower over fences but he's hard to fancy. |
