Three-time hurdles winner was back to form when runner-up at Listowel in June but tailed off at Bellewstown following that; got loose at the start and was withdrawn at Galway last week; mark still looks on the high side. |

Maiden hurdle winner (rated 109) over an extended 2m4f on good ground at Bellewstown last summer; attracted attention of Stewards (banned for 60 days) on returning from 213-day absence on chase debut at Wexford in May, staying on to chase home a long odds-on shot in 4-runner 2m novice; marked step up in trip here. |

Won off 8lb lower at Roscommon (16.5f, yld-sft) in June; ran two respectable races at the Galway festival, third of 20 in a handicap hurdle, then fifth of 18 in a 22.5f handicap chase; may be in handicapper's grip for now. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 55y |
10st 9lb |
Has done most of his winning on the Flat in Britain, and has found a new lease of life over hurdles at his local track last month, following up a good second in a 2m1f handicap hurdle in early July by getting up on the line to land a similar handicap over the same trip three weeks later; up 6lb for those two efforts is far from excessive and he can be thereabouts once more with the step up in trip unlikely to be an issue. |

Five-time Flat winner is 0-15 over hurdles but he took second over C&D (good, 20-1) earlier this month; chance if he builds on that but his overall form suggests he might not. |

Is 6lb lower than when gaining second win over hurdles at Tipperary in July 2024; soundly beaten off 100 when last seen at Down Royal in December; 1lb lower now and has gone well fresh, so not dismissed in first-time cheekpieces. |
