19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Very capable on the Flat and he won his last start in this sphere when landing a Downpatrick maiden hurdle (2m3f, good) in April 2024; patchy form in nine starts on the Flat since and he refused to race on both outings when last seen in October; stable debut. |

9st 11lb |
Tardy starts have been a common theme this season but he took even more drastic action at the Curragh last time when refusing to race; generally poor efforts this year but he finished a close third behind subsequent Ascot Stakes winner Ascending at Cork in May (1m4f, good); risky proposition. |

Tardy starts have been a recurring theme for this C&D winner (heavy); very slowly away again on latest at Down Royal (1m5f, yielding); can't afford to miss the break badly at this trip; capable but risky; cheekpieces left off. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |
11st 11lb |
Dual hurdles winner, including here; creditable third of six over an extended 2m7f here on chasing debut in June when he didn't appear to stay the trip; modest third of nine over hurdles at Downpatrick (2m2f, good) last time. |

Two course wins, over 2m6f and more recently over 2m4f in April; okay chase debut here in June and has had a break since; back hurdling and this trip looks on the short side. |

Is 0-11 under rules and hard to fancy having been out of form in points/hunter chases in recent times. |

Bumper winner here for Willie Mullins in 2022 and placed in Sligo maiden hurdle for James Nash following summer; hasn't progressed in restricted campaign though, absent since never counting over fences at Ballinrobe in July; hard to be confident in. |

Bumper winner for Willie Mullins and was close up in a maiden on debut for her next yard; hasn't built on that and looks best watched on handicap debut. |

Regressive mare has been soundly beaten on AW lately up to this trip and needs much more. |
