11st 8lb |
One of two for trainer; yet to win over fences after five starts, but some positive efforts behind quality opposition, including when 0.75l behind Funiculi Funicula at Cork last time (2m1f, yielding) under this rider; place chance. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 45y |
11st 12lb |
Has won a point, two bumpers and a maiden hurdle plus placed in two Grade 1 novice hurdles last year; solid in defeat in his first three chase runs but below that form in a classy Cheltenham handicap last time; looks the better of the Elliott pair and a big player even down in trip. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Point and bumper winner; 0-6 record as hurdler includes three seconds in maidens last winter before an excellent 15l fourth at 150-1 in the Grade 1 Turners here (2m5f, good to soft) last March; way below form in maidens on his two starts this winter (third at 4-9 last time) but the cheekpieces go on for his leading yard on handicap debut; there are straws to clutch at. |

18th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Point and bumper winner; 0-5 over hurdles but held his own in some strong maidens before an excellent 15l fourth behind The New Lion in the Turners Novices Hurdle (2m5f, good to soft) at Cheltenham last season, keeping on well; way below that level in a Leopardstown maiden on seasonal return last time when a 23l seventh; this contest is weaker, so leading chance but last run raises a question. |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
11st 11lb |
Outstanding form in points this term, winning six from seven; no disgrace in neck Portrush defeat to Winged Leader, the most prolific Irish points winner ever (37 wins); raced a bit too keenly when only third (beaten favourite) on hunter chase debut at Cork; can repeat stable's 2025 win with the talented Fountain House, an easy winner under Rob James here on Tuesday. |

Outstanding form in points since October, winning six of his seven races, including a hard-earned victory over Dromleigh at Dromahane in December; his winning run came to an end at Portrush nine days ago; no disgrace in losing out by a neck to Winged Leader, the most prolific Irish points winner in history (37 wins). |

Best effort over hurdles on penultimate when a never-nearer fourth at Navan (2m4f, good to yielding); didn't appreciate the drop back in trip on latest; this test should suit better and he should run well. |

Maiden under all disciplines, best hurdles form when second in 2m5f Punchestown maiden; sole chase effort came on penultimate when never sighted in Limerick handicap in March on soft; inadequate trip back hurdling last time; high enough mark still. |

Off the mark over fences in a C&D beginners' in May; unseated two out in a handicap chase back here next time when still in contention; never involved at the Galway festival when tailed off (2m2f, good); capable of better back here. |

Ran well for a long way when third at Kelso (2m2f, good) in April but two lesser efforts have followed and he's now 0-7 for current stable; sometimes races too freely; others have more pressing claims. |
