11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Point and bumper winner; 0-6 record as hurdler includes three seconds in maidens last winter before an excellent 15l fourth at 150-1 in the Grade 1 Turners here (2m5f, good to soft) last March; way below form in maidens on his two starts this winter (third at 4-9 last time) but the cheekpieces go on for his leading yard on handicap debut; there are straws to clutch at. |

18th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Point and bumper winner; 0-5 over hurdles but held his own in some strong maidens before an excellent 15l fourth behind The New Lion in the Turners Novices Hurdle (2m5f, good to soft) at Cheltenham last season, keeping on well; way below that level in a Leopardstown maiden on seasonal return last time when a 23l seventh; this contest is weaker, so leading chance but last run raises a question. |

10st 8lb |
Won on chase debut at Hexham (1m7f, good) last May and close third of six at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) in December; however, beaten 20l in fifth when upped in grade at Haydock (2m, good to soft) last month and remains in Class 3 company today; a career-best is required. |

Point-to-point winner; off the mark at third attempt in Tramore maiden hurdle (2m6f, heavy) on New Year's Day and handled good ground well when second in Thurles handicap over same trip; not sure if he stayed 3m at Cork last time. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |
11st 0lb |
Three times a hurdles winner here and excellent second to well-treated winner in last year's renewal; lost form after but regained it in November when winning Listed handicap at Fairyhouse; below-par since then; back from a break and, given his track record, has to be respected. |
14/1 |

7th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 8lb |
Better form over shorter distances after being pulled up in the 3m4f Munster National; placed over C&D and Punchestown (2m5f, soft to heavy) before winning a competitive handicap chase at Fairyhouse (2m1f, yielding to soft) in November; set tough tasks on last three starts, this looks more realistic. |
14/1 |

5th 4 |
22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Has done well over shorter distances since pulled up in the 3m4f Munster National; placed at Gowran (2m, heavy) and Punchestown (2m5f, soft to heavy) before winning a listed handicap chase at Fairyhouse (2m1f, yielding to soft); tailed off in a Fairyhouse Grade 3 last month and beaten 15l in a Leopardstown handicap (2m1f, soft) last time; likely to find these to be too talented. |

Three-time winning hurdler in 2024; immediate winner over fences at Galway (2m2f, yielding) before following up in a Cork Grade 3 novice (2m4f, good to yielding) next time, with You Oughta Know 2.75l behind in second; poor effort in Grade 1 company in November at Fairyhouse; never on terms after a bad mistake at the fifth at Cheltenham when last seen; tough task conceding weight all round. |
