2nd 1 (9) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Represents top Irish jumps trainer Willie Mullins; won a Grade 3 hurdle at Tipperary last October and he's posted easy wins on the Dundalk AW on his last two starts (1m4f/10.6f); has a lofty mark to defy now back in a handicap but he may well prove capable in view of his impressive winter form. |

Very smart hurdler, winning Tipperary Grade 3 in October; very keen when fourth on 2m AW debut in November; settled much better when forging clear to win 1m4f course handicap by 6l next time; must have strong credentials again. |

Record of 1-24 is off-putting; returned to scene of her win when breaking a poor run of form at Tramore (2m1f, good to yielding), finishing third of 16; ran on well that day, but she needs to repeat it. |

Won at Doncaster (2m, good) in December on second start back from long absence and, after fading over 2m4f on soft next time, he won back at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) three weeks ago, when he was disputing the lead when left clear at the final flight; this unexposed 7yo is respected up 6lb. |

Won over C&D in December on second start back from a long absence then didn't see out 2m4f on soft ground at Wincanton last month; won on soft going in 2024; this lightly raced 7yo retains potential now back down in trip and he's in with a chance. |

Just his seventh start when showing improved form to win a 2m handicap at Doncaster (good) 17 days ago; won his novice on soft ground and a 5lb rise for last time isn't too scary; should stay this far and be involved. |

11st 12lb |
Two wins on the Flat, rated as high as 95 when with Sir Mark Prescott; a long way below that in a Flat event at Listowel a month ago; took well enough to hurdling in four outings between March and June, best effort when second at Punchestown in May; let down by his jumping at Downpatrick in September; good chance if producing his best on first-time cheekpieces. |

Won a twice on the Flat for Sir Mark Prescott and has made the frame on all four starts over hurdles; weak finishing effort at Punchestown in June provides cause for concern, but looks the clear pick of these runners based on his Naas third in April and Punchestown second in May. |

Won consecutive 1m4f handicaps in 2024 at Roscommon and Galway (off 70); came back from an absence when winning over hurdles at Bellewstown last summer and ran well in novice events both starts afterwards; returns from a further 9 months' absence but goes well fresh. |
