Placed in three of his last five chase starts, most recently when third behind Munster National hopeful Pride Of Place at Listowel; stays well and is likely to be competitive. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 180y |

Continues to run well now and again but he's 8lb higher than for his last handicap win over fences and looks vulnerable. |

Rebounded from fall at Punchestown with a 6.25l third at Killarney (behind Jeu De Pic); remains 8lb above last chase win and may be in the handicapper's grip right now but still has a place chance. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 146y |
11st 4lb |
Relatively consistent for this sort of grade and finished runner-up in 16-runner handicap hurdle at Tipperary last week behind progressive rival; up 2lb but she's capable of getting involved again. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 120y |

2-13 over hurdles; close third at Down Royal when last seen in this discipline in November (3m, good to yielding); two second-placed finishes in handicap chases following that but her run last time at Limerick in a first-time tongue-tie was her worst in a long time; that headgear now removed. |

11st 10lb |
Won off 6lb lower at Punchestown last November (24.5f, good); latest third at Killarney was a remote one; best form is on a sound surface so the forecast rain is a worry. |

Won twice in the space of four days over fences in November 2024; came on from return with a 3l defeat at Punchestown last month despite some errors; however, subsequent effort at Tipperary wasn't encouraging; 7lb above last winning mark. |

Ordinary hurdles form, three wins in points; has to bounce back from a poor recent run at Knockanohill; did well to beat The Great Unknown's stablemate Shake The Bag in a match at Ballyvodock. |

Winless in 31 attempts hurdling; 3-35 over fences, with two of those at Tramore; flopped when well fancied for course handicap hurdle in February; fair fifth over fences at Tramore last month. |

3-34 over fences, with two of those successes coming at this track, including when 33-1 chance in this race in 2023; creditable third in a 2m7f handicap chase here on New Year's Day; flopped when well fancied for a handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. |

10th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 5f 0y |

Is 3-34 over fences; veteran's recent form is solid, featuring a third placing over C&D last month and a third in a handicap chase at Tramore on New Year's Day; 0-30 record over hurdles is a significant negative; rider's claim is an asset. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Won a 3m4f handicap chase at Leopardstown in March of last year (yielding); this season hasn't gone so well but it wasn't too bad a run on his return to fences at Downpatrick last time (3m4f; yielding to soft) and unwise to put a line through him. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 4f 120y |

Good form last winter, notably winning a 3m4f handicap chase at Leopardstown; struggled in the spring in the Scottish National and in a valuable Punchestown handicap; should be better for a recent hurdles run. |

4th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 180y |

Rated 26lb higher over fences but pulled up in final two starts in that sphere last season; seasonal return over hurdles at Navan in September was disappointing when beaten 35l at 6-1 (2m3f, yielding); big chance if on a going day. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
A major improver since joining Emmet Mullins, winning twice over hurdles in the autumn and now arrives here on a four-timer over fences after three wins at Thurles (2m5f-3m1f); tackling a different level of opposition now but Sean Bowen rides off a feather weight and he could be dangerous. |

18th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 198y |

Former winner for Michael Hourigan is having a very fruitful season, with back-to-back good to yielding hurdle wins (2m6f/2m7f) in September/October before disappointing at 11-10 at Clonmel next time; reverted to fences at this track for back-to-back wins off a much lower chasing mark most recently; things may be more difficult now following 15lb hit for easy win last time (3m1f, yielding). |
