12th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 6f 170y |
11st 6lb |
Won over fences at Kilbeggan last August (3m2f, good to yielding); ran respectably next time at Ballinrobe (2m7f, soft); pulled up in a handicap hurdle last time; trainer has a stronger contender in Gaelic Des Chastys. |

Added a chase win to his brace of hurdle successes when winning at Kilbeggan in August (3m2f, good to yielding); ran respectably next time at Ballinrobe (2m7f, soft); tailed off at Killarney when last seen in October; reverts to hurdles now, and chance at his best. |

Hurdle winner at this track and opened his chase account with a neck success at Kilbeggan three weeks ago; may have won by further without an error in the closing stages and 5lb rise looks workable. |

Two wins over jumps in 2025; last seen on the Flat in September 2024 when well beaten by Sir Allen off a mark of 70; just 3lb lower now and fell in a Wexford handicap chase when last seen in October; others make more appeal. |

1-14 over hurdles but disappointed at Ballinrobe in that sphere last time out; previously ran a nice race at Bellewstown over 2m4f on good ground; not a bad run on chase debut at Downpatrick in June where 2m7f trip probably stretched him; cheekpieces on for handicap chase debut; probably best watched today unless the money comes. |

Both hurdle wins have been at 3m on decent ground, including at Clonmel last October; not so effective in a couple of recent attempts chasing but in between went down by only a neck (clear of remainder) to a well-handicapped sort in 3m Cork handicap hurdle; drying ground to suit and one for the shortlist. |
