25th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 136y |
11st 10lb |
Bled in this last year; good form in first two starts for this yard at Killarney in the summer and creditable third of 17 in valuable 2m4f veterans' contest at Haydock last month; chance on that form. |

10st 4lb |
Last win came at Killarney last summer but retains level of ability judged on recent Haydock veterans' handicap third (good), best run for some time; whether or not he can back that up against more progressive types is debatable. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Irish challenger who could be in the picture judged on his good form at Killarney last summer, and he's one to watch in the betting; however, he's been soundly beaten on his last three starts and has to get back on track. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 13lb |
Sole win over fences came in 3m Mayo National in 2024 on good ground; good second in Galway Plate that summer but last year's form was poor; pulled up after never counting on return from long absence in Irish National; hard to be confident in although has ground to suit. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Gifted a 2m4f Uttoxeter race two starts back (soft), and 3m was clearly too far last time; not wholly convincing, but his one win on merit came at this time of year in 2024 on good (2m4f); tongue-tie added. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Ex-Irish 7yo; well held in his first three runs for Dan Skelton and he was around 17l down when he was gifted a race here (2m4f, soft) two weeks ago; this is a deeper contest and he has work to do to back up in trip. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Won a point and a Fakenham hunter chase about this time last year before predictably struggling at lengthy odds in the feature hunter chases at Cheltenham and Aintree; badly let down by his jumping in calmer waters afterwards and this 11yo now has much to prove. |

14th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
12st 8lb |
Won a point and a Fakenham hunter chase in February before making no impact in the big hunter chases at Cheltenham and Aintree (behind when unseating); found no fluency and was well held when falling at Stratford (2m6f, good); comes with risks on the back of that effort but this is a modest contest. |

Won a bumper at this venue and only narrowly denied a third success over timber at Ballinrobe two runs ago; subsequent Flat run worth ignoring and he's feasibly treated; versatile with regards to conditions. |

Two handicap wins over hurdles, including over 3m; confirmed stamina with creditable third in 3m2f Wexford handicap chase in August; found wanting in a mares' beginners' chase at Tramore; sprang a surprise when making all to beat a shorter-priced stablemate in a 2m4f handicap at Naas last month; up 10lb for that but still on a handy weight. |

Won over nearly 3m as a chaser last year when based in Ireland; pulled up over hurdles on final run there and made a forgettable stable debut at Hexham in this new headgear combination. |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |

A fair 2m7f-winning chaser but he was pulled up back hurdling in 3m Fairyhouse handicap in April on his final run for Thomas Cooper; cheekpieces go on for his new yard and he can't be ruled out after a break with Brian Hughes up. |

One of two for yard; last of three wins came at Listowel in 2023; fourth on both starts for this stable at this venue over 3m but beaten 31l (on heavy) and 52l (on yielding); on a dangerous mark now, however, and cheekpieces might provide a spark. |
