Dual hurdles winner last year at about 2m4f; appeared to be getting the hang of things over fences with a 1l third at the Galway festival (2m6f, good) where What's Up Darling was 1.5l behind off level weights; avoids a penalty and a repeat of his latest effort should see him in the mix. |

Useful Flat sort in France; came back from a long absence to win a Tramore maiden hurdle (2m) in June and ran well in two novice events before abruptly pulled up at Limerick last time tried over further; back in trip here for handicap debut with questions to answer. |

Bumper and hurdles winner for Willie Mullins in 2023-24; didn't add to her tally for Paul Kiely last year, but back to form on both recent starts for current yard in 2m handicap chases on good ground, winning at Tramore and chasing home clear winner Mic Drop off 6lb higher at Wexford; more needed to reverse that form. |

Brother to 2m1f chase winner Doyannie, half-brother to winners James's Gate (bumper) and Black Lightning (2m4f/2m5f hurdle); dam 2m hurdle/2m4f chase winner; useful form when making most in Lingstown maiden point-to-point in December and later in month sold for 150,000GBP at Cheltenham Sales; top yard and obvious appeal on rules debut. |

Much improved since going handicapping, just denied at Down Royal before decisive 3m5f success in Ulster National at Downpatrick in late March, winning going away; didn't count just eight days later when tough ask in 3m5f Irish National but don't rule out back in grade here and handles this quicker ground. |

Won second race over hurdles when landing a handicap at Listowel (2m2f, gd-yld) in September; below best twice since, in a handicap chase at Clonmel and a handicap hurdle on heavy at Limerick in December; off since and record fresh suggests he might need this run. |

Point-to-point winner's sole success over timber is a Sligo maiden hurdle; fine effort in Listed handicap hurdle at Navan, took a backward step on latest however in Fairyhouse beginners last week over inadequate trip; once again needs more of a stamina test than this. |

Scored over fences for Shark Hanlon in August 2025 but lost his way subsequently; back to his best on his second start for his current yard when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last Tuesday; shouldered with a 7lb penalty but will be suited by the step up in trip and holds claims. |
