Dual Flat winner has won four over hurdles, with the last of those coming at Killarney in 2024; well beaten in a Grade 2 novice when last seen; needs to be at his best on chasing debut after a long absence. |

11st 9lb |
Dual hurdles winner was poor at Wexford in April off 4lb higher (2m4f, good to yielding) but rebounded over fences back there last time when a distant second of 11 (3m2f, good to yielding); can't be ruled out but others are more appealing. |

Is yet to win over fences but has posted plenty of good runs including here; however, he was poor over hurdles last time (also here) and has to rebound. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 100y |
11st 8lb |
Very smart chaser when at his best but he was well beaten in this 12 months ago and last season's placed efforts were remote ones behind class acts; current wellbeing is a bit of an issue. |

1st Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Decent sort has two wins apiece over hurdles and fences, including a Grade 2 at Navan last season, his best performance; however, he is rated a long way below all of these rivals and is an unlikely winner. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Dual-purpose two-time winning hurdler; won C&D maiden hurdle last May and added a Listed handicap hurdle at the Galway festival in August; well beaten off revised mark twice since; decent run on the Flat at Killarney 13 days ago, but more needed back over timber in new headgear combination. |

11st 3lb |
No closer than 14l in three Flat maidens (for Michael Hourigan) and better known as a jumper, having won a Listed handicap hurdle at last year's Galway festival; could be dangerous off this low a mark. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 7f 170y |
11st 12lb |
Twice successful early in the season on joining this yard, notably valuable 2m7f Galway handicap (good); didn't feature in Pertemps Qualifier at Cheltenham in October and absent since; likes good ground so possibly best watched on return here. |

18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Very solid sequence last spring/summer on ground ranging from good (unraced on firmer) to heavy, including a dominant display from the back over 2m at this track; 7lb higher mark today demands a career-best Flat performance but he was bang there in blanket finish to a good handicap hurdle last month and it's not hard to think that this trip will suit. |

Won a valuable handicap chase at Listowel (2m6f, soft to heavy; handles good) in September when 6lb lower and kept on well to finish third back over hurdles last time; not entirely dismissed, though he is an 11yo now and does lack recent match practice. |
