30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
11st 10lb |
Most recent of his three wins was in 2024; ran his best race for a long time when 50-1 runner-up in the BetMGM Cup at Cheltenham; remote eighth behind Teahupoo here 12 months ago; up against it. |
33/1 |

2nd 19 |
11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Fifth when 50-1 in this race in 2024 (1lb higher today) and 20l sixth when 80-1 for the Grade 1 Stayers' in 2025, close up turning for home on both occasions; not so good this season and this is a rare run without tongue-tie or other headgear; not entirely dismissed, though. |
50/1 |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 110y |

Smart hurdler at his best; often highly tried, including at Cheltenham and Punchestown last season after he had finished third behind Rocky's Diamond in this race; anchored by a big burden in a handicap at Leopardstown at Christmas. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
11st 4lb |
Has only one win over hurdles but ran a cracker to be fourth in this race last year off the same mark; ran over fences without winning first four runs this season but a fine effort when not the clearest of passages in the Martin Pipe last time; a player. |
8/1 |

6th 6 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Has failed to match the pick of his hurdles form since switched to fences; last two attempts in this sphere resulted in creditable efforts in notable staying handicaps last spring, including in the Pertemps Final at this meeting; quite exposed, however, and is 0-13 since debut win. |

11st 12lb |
Close second to Busselton here last year on cross-country debut; looked in fine shape when beating The Goffer and subsequent Cheltenham winner Final Orders over 3m here in November; pulled up over hurdles the following month; dropped away from the 23rd of 31 obstacles at Cheltenham; obvious chance if on song again. |

Untested on this track but close second in La Touche Cup on cross-country debut at Punchestown (4m1f, good to yielding) last May and looked in very good nick when beating The Goffer and Final Orders to win over 3m on that Bank course (soft to heavy) in November; pulled up over hurdles the following month and 3lb out of the weights today but still considered. |

Won at Down Royal (2m4f, good to yielding) in December and ran well in defeat on next two starts (2m3f/2m4f, heavy/good to yielding) prior to failing to stay 3m4f in the Ulster National at Downpatrick; could play a leading role back down in trip. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 4f 120y |

122 rated hurdler; got off the mark at the second attempt over fences in a 2m4f beginners' event at Down Royal at Christmas; beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap chase at Gowran, where heavy ground may not have been ideal; better when second in a rated race at Down Royal; hard to be sure how effectively he will stay. |

Dual hurdles winner is now 0-8 chasing but some good runs in defeat, including 2m6f Listowel handicap; no match for 15l winner The Enabler in Fairyhouse novice on latest but remains of interest back in handicap with cheekpieces now tried. |

Reverts from chasing in a bid to repeat last year's win in this event; only 2lb higher; ground will suit him better than on recent chase starts; worth considering, though his much younger stablemate Bitofajokelike seems more appealing. |

His three hurdle wins came at Fairyhouse on good ground at 2m4f-3m but nothing since late 2024; some cracking runs in defeat though, including when third off this mark at Cork (3m, yielding); challenging for the lead when unseated at the third last at Wexford last time; down to an attractive mark. |
