13th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Ran well for a 100-1 shot in this last year (sixth), doing best work late on; that was also the case when only 6l off Its On The Line at Down Royal over Christmas and, like last year, he arrives here after winning a point; cheekpieces offered nothing when tried once before (hurdles); place squeak. |

10st 10lb |
Sole win came in Limerick maiden hurdle (2m, soft to heavy) in 2022; has failed to win in 13 attempts over fences; made a bad mistake four out at Thurles last time; may pick up a chase at some stage, but this company looks demanding. |

5th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 142y |

Ran a fine race in a fairly valuable handicap chase at Killarney last month; now 0-11 in chases but that wasn't the first time he ran well in defeat; recent rain a plus; top rated at 126 and leading chance back in a beginners'. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Flat winner in April 2024 but really lost his way when last seen; not ruled out given his strong record fresh; new yard; off 267 days. |

1m5f winner at Gowran in April off 1lb lower; however, well beaten back on the Flat 16 days ago (1m6f) after two runs over fences; others might be too quick at this trip even if returning to form. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 20y |

Still a maiden after 22 starts over hurdles; hard to be confident against that background, although recent form is quite respectable. |

18th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 30y |

Maiden after 21 hurdle runs; not a bad run last time but needs to get back to his best and others appeal more. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 165y |

Now a 20 race maiden over hurdles; his run at Punchestown on New Year's Eve when a runner-up would give him a definite chance; however, he has been beaten by 26l+ in his last two runs. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Better over fences; stays 2m5f; had wind surgery prior to the latest Cheltenham Festival (2m, good) where he very nearly recorded a second success in the Grand Annual; not guaranteed to transfer the form back to hurdles but he is attractively treated off a much lower mark in this sphere. |
9/1 |

2nd 8 |
11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
8lb higher than when winning this last year (good to soft) and his subsequent form (chiefly over hurdles) hasn't been at the same level; however, he's had a wind op since last time and his 2-2 record at the Cheltenham Festival (also won the Fred Winter in 2023) means he's firmly in calculations. |
7/1 |
|
6th 2 |
18th Jan 2026 Yielding 1m 7f 168y |
11st 11lb |
Five-time winner, including wins in the Fred Winter and last season's Grand Annual; generally below since, beaten 26l in the Galway Plate; respectable effort back over hurdles at Cheltenham last time when a 12.5l fifth of 20; took the runner-up spot in this race last year from 1lb lower, so not ruled out. |
