11st 4lb |
In front when falling four out at Wexford in July on second chase start and a final-fence blunder proved costly when second there in August last time; could do with cutting out the mistakes but the first-time cheekpieces may help in that regard; one of two for last year's winning Irish yard. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 2m 3f 130y |
11st 12lb |
Two hurdle wins for John McConnell at 2m4f; out of form last season; some promise when fourth on his stable/chasing debut at Kilbeggan, 3 1/2l behind today's rival Harsh; made a mistake at the last then; fell in the lead four out over C&D two weeks ago. |

11st 12lb |
Two-time hurdle winner for John McConnell at 2m4f; out of form last season but his stable/chasing debut at Kilbeggan last time was not devoid of promise when behind some decent rivals and he would have likely finished third but for a mistake at the last; that gives him something to build on. |

Improved mare won handicaps at Galway and Listowel this term; might not have stayed 2m7f at Limerick last time and the drop to this trip should suit, so looks a player. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 0y |

Better known as a chaser but has shown smart hurdles form in the past; would have a squeak if back in top form off a lower hurdle mark. |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |
11st 6lb |
Two wins include this race last year off 2lb lower; standout run this term when second in Grade 3 Punchestown contest (2m7f), tame effort last time (albeit stiff task) in Grade 2 at Thurles; not one to rule out back in handicap company. |

Useful sort; best form at Punchestown, including when second to the talented Heart Wood three starts ago; 2-16 record over fences is not a great return bearing in mind his 147 rating; inferior to the four Mullins-trained runners on official figures |

Winner of two of her nine starts over fences since her last hurdles run almost two years ago; recorded her two hurdle wins back-to-back over 2m4f at this venue in April/May 2024; below best over fences since a fair run at last year's Galway festival. |

Won this race last year off 4lb lower mark (soft) in first-time blinkers and good comeback run early this term in Galway Blazers; seen just twice since, well held here in November and 3m looked beyond her at Leopardstown over Christmas; doesn't come here in the same form as last year and cheekpieces now replace blinkers. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 141y |
9st 8lb |
Useful juvenile hurdle winner in 2023, scored again early last year; 0-4 on the Flat but shaped well on opening two runs on good ground; handicap debut and new headgear combination tried on first Flat run in over a year; yard has excellent recent record in this race so has to be respected, despite more obvious claims of stablemate Billie Frechette. |

Three-time chase winner is 2-29 over hurdles; rated 13lb lower over timber but recent form in both codes has been disappointing and a major revival is needed. |

Better chaser than hurdler, although hasn't won since taking 2m4f Cork handicap hurdle in November 2023; safely held over hurdles of late, of limited appeal back chasing. |

Mostly disappointing for Dan Skelton but he was previously a five-time winner for Joseph O'Brien; second on his debut for this yard at Killarney last July; pulled up at Bellewstown the following month; back to form when springing a 28-1 surprise at Killarney last month, 6lb higher now. |
