Dual Flat winner in 2024 and highly tried on both starts for Willie Mullins, including when pulled up in the Triumph Hurdle on hurdle debut in March 2025; looked in need of the run on this month's return from an absence and is now fitted with a hood; likely best watched for now.

Dual Flat winner for John & Thady Gosden in 2024; highly tried for Willie Mullins, pulling up in last year's Triumph Hurdle before finishing tailed off in the Northumberland Plate in June 2025; sold for 7,000gns in April and likely to make a hurdler; longer trip could suit and drops markedly in class with a tongue-tie added, but has a long absence to overcome.

Rated 69 on the Flat; built on a middling hurdles debut at Listowel to finish an 8l fourth of seven at Down Royal when running too keenly and fading late on (2m4f, good to firm); return to this distance may suit and not totally ruled out.

Won against own age-group on hurdling debut at Ludlow (2m, good) just under a year ago but subsequent hurdle/Flat form has generally been underwhelming; not beaten far when tenth at Chepstow (2m3f, good) this month but makes only limited appeal here; headgear is switched again.
