25th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |
11st 6lb |
Won first two chases in the autumn, including a Grade 3 at Cork; jumping left him down in novice handicap at Cheltenham; faded in the straight when behind He's Gorgeous at Punchestown and question mark over his stamina for this trip. |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time winning hurdler in 2024; immediate winner over fences at Galway (2m2f, yielding) before following up in a Cork Grade 3 novice (2m4f, good to yielding) next time, with You Oughta Know 2.75l behind in second; poor effort in Grade 1 company in November at Fairyhouse; never on terms after a bad mistake at the fifth at Cheltenham when last seen; tough task conceding weight all round. |

Returns from a layoff, having shown all of his chase form in the autumn, winning twice (including 2m4f Grade 3) prior to a form-dip in Fairyhouse Grade 1; needs to resume progress but has big-field handicap experience, namely a good effort over hurdles at the 2025 Dublin Racing Festival; cheekpieces added. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 5lb |
Useful hurdler, latest win came off 124 in handicap at Downpatrick in June; nothing of real note in five chase starts since, well beaten over 3m at Down Royal 195 days ago; needs a lot more after break, but hasn't been out of the first three in as many starts here. |

129 rated hurdler has not pulled up any trees in a trio of beginners' chases at 2m1f-2m2f on decent ground; needs to jump better and stamina to prove upped markedly in trip for handicap chase debut. |

10st 5lb |
Five-time winner; both his chase wins have come at Thurles on good ground; last two runs have been respectable but looks held by Harbour Highway and Lisleigh Lad on Leopardstown running; rider Phidelma Elvin won this in 2023. |

18th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 198y |
10st 7lb |
Five-time winner under Rules, with both his chase wins coming at this track on good ground in a 2m2f beginners' and in this race last year; just 2lb higher since his win last year but beaten fairly comprehensively in three summer starts and pulled up around here last month (2m5f, yielding); comes into the race in lesser form than last year. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |
11st 11lb |
Dual-purpose; 3-11 over hurdles; solid Flat run at Navan (1m6f, heavy) after 156-day absence in March but has failed to fire in two handicap hurdles since; remains 9lb above last winning mark; may need respite from the handicapper. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 110y |

Won at this meeting last year after a break and has generally held form well since, adding wins over hurdles at Listowel and on the Flat at Thurles; went close at Galway in October on last run over timber and just 2lb higher here; pleasing return on the Flat at Navan last week; interesting. |

11st 12lb |
Off the mark chasing in 2m6f Fairyhouse handicap in November (yielding-to-soft) and better again when just denied over same C&D early this month on similar ground; in between wasn't discredited in strong renewal of PP Hogan Memorial over today's C&D (fifth to Vanillier); definite claims. |

Second for this rider when favourite for this race last season and a C&D winner for her last November; kept ticking over with a cross-country run and a hurdles outing in February; strong chance. |

Yet to really threaten in handicaps since his shock Listowel maiden hurdle win in September 2024; okay Down Royal effort at Christmas but pulled up there when last seen; hard to see him winning. |

Yet to really threaten in handicaps since his Listowel maiden hurdle win in September 2024, okay C&D effort at Christmas behind Boston Bobby; hard to see him reversing that form however. |
