1st Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Point and bumper winner; 2-10 over hurdles; poor strike rate as a chaser, 1-22; has been out of form over jumps; however, he produced a fine effort when third in a 1m6f maiden at Killarney in July on his belated Flat debut; could feature in improving a little from that. |

Poor strike rate over fences and has been beaten miles in his last three handicaps; well held over Hurdles here yesterday. |

Dual hurdle winner and was third in this race in 2023 off 6lb higher; regressive over fences last season but a decent Flat run at Killarney last time; could run well. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 80y |
11st 10lb |
First and second in the last two runnings of the Grand Annual at Cheltenham; slightly unlucky in a valuable handicap hurdle at Aintree when last seen; still potentially well handicapped over hurdles and should be a leading player; has won over 2m5f over fences. |
4/1 |

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. |

29th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 78y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Probably flattered by his proximity in a tactical novice chase at Cheltenham last month and has since had his limitations exposed in a Grade 2 there; however, he's back at a much more realistic level today and still has plenty of scope to progress from his convincing handicap win at Sedgefield (2m, good to soft) three starts ago. |

11st 4lb |
Won a Class 4 handicap at Sedgefield (2m, good to soft) last month on second chase start and faced tough task when creditable third of four in warm novice contest over C&D (good) last time; this 5yo may have more to offer but others have considerably more substance to their claims. |

24th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 7f 180y |
10st 12lb |
Three Flat wins this year, the latest over 1m5f at Ballinrobe in July; jumping was untidy at times on return to chasing at Galway; down the field in the Cheltenham Festival novice handicap in which Anyway finished second; plenty to prove. |
10/1 |

1st Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 111y |
11st 12lb |
Dual-purpose performer is 8-28 in all codes, two of his wins coming over fences in novice chases; has been plying his trade on the Flat recently with good success, including two wins; fell at Leopardstown and tailed off at Cheltenham in his last two chase starts so he has something to prove now returned to this discipline. |
13/1 |

21st Jul 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 184y |
10st 0lb |
Seven wins under all rules with last one coming in a Killarney conditions race in May; even better form when beaten only 4l in the Ascot Stakes h'cap last time; this trip is fine too and is a big player. |
