11st 3lb |
Dual hurdle winner has also won twice over fences including a Listed handicap at Killarney in 2024; some good runs in defeat after and is now just 2lb higher than that mark; mostly below form on the Flat and over hurdles this year but not ignored. |

Fair effort on the Flat 20 days ago but was tailed off in his final hurdle race and seems better over fences these days. |

Three wins over timber, the most recent at Galway in October 2023; two chase wins in 2025 but pulled up in that sphere on latest at Gowran a month ago; 4lb wrong back over hurdles; others preferred. |

Sole win from 20 attempts over fences came in a Clonmel beginners' chase in 2023; however, he has been running well in defeat, with several placed finishes including on seasonal return at Wexford in July (2m3f, good); pulled up at Market Rasen when last seen. |

Irish challenger; 3lb out of the weights and over two years since he last won (overall strike-rate of 2-33); however, good second at Wexford on his return from a break and he's one who won't mind what the weather does. |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
11st 7lb |
Five-time winner, twice over fences; enjoyed a productive summer last year, scoring over C&D in June before finishing a nose second in a valuable event in Killarney; highly tried later in the year; made mistakes and finished in rear over C&D on return. |

Ran well over hurdles in July but well behind last time at Navan, that after a pull-up over fences; only 4-41 overall and opposable in a race of this nature. |

20th Sep 2025 Yielding 1m 7f 165y |

Two disappointing runs over fences since placed in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan in July; probably vulnerable to younger and less exposed rivals. |

17th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 0y |

Not at his best since second to the high-class Saint Roi at Galway last season; was promoted to 133 as a result of that display; now 15lb lower, showed signs of a return to form when third over hurdles at Kilbeggan last month; slightly disappointing at Galway this year but is dropped in grade now and is a course winner. |

23rd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Left Gordon Elliott after disappointing hurdle run last autumn; well beaten again on stable debut in March but, after wind surgery, he returned to chasing with a good second at Fakenham (3m, good) 19 days ago; has possibilities if he can build on that but his last win was in 2023. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 2 |

Left Gordon Elliott after disappointing hurdle run last autumn and was again well beaten when returning for new stable in March; given a wind op since and reverts to chasing on a workable mark but still looks risky. |

8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 3 |

Best known as a chaser these days and was tailed off back over hurdles on his final run for Gordon Elliott, whom he left for £30,000; on a good mark but there's much to prove on first sighting since October. |

10st 5lb |
10yo who's had 70 races (only one of today's rivals has managed even half that) and won 11; latest was the 3m5f cross-country at Cheltenham Festival, comfortably holding off Favori De Champdou for career-best form off the same mark as today; having taken so well to that discipline (he also won there in December) and produced his best performances away from soft ground, he has to be considered seriously. |
25/1 |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
High-mileage 10yo who took very well to this C&D (good) in December, winning quite comfortably by just over 4l; weakened into fifth in soft-ground C&D contest won by Favori De Champdou in January but ran well for a long way and ought to be better suited by the less testing conditions today; each-way claims at least. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |

High-mileage 10yo who took very well to this C&D (good) last month, leading from the ninth fence and beating J'Arrive De L'Est quite comfortably by over 4l; went up 9lb for that, though, and may not be ideally suited by the slower ground today. |

Has modest 2-36 strike-rate over fences but is largely consistent and has been as good as ever this season; not beaten far when seventh in competitive Leopardstown handicap (2m1f, good to yielding) just after Christmas and should be fine over today's longer trip; ought to be on the premises. |
