10st 5lb |
One of his three hurdle wins came at this track in 2024; dual chase winner afterwards; mostly below form over fences last season, but this ground suits better so could put up an improved show. |

Three hurdle wins but this is his first run in this discipline since 2024; couple of fair runs over fences this year and will like the ground. |

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. |

Soundly beaten thrice, despite market strength, since his placed effort over 2m6f (soft) in January; visor didn't work in the past, blinkers now tried. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 75y |
11st 11lb |
Inconsistent and just one win from his nine chase starts but that came in the Grade 3 Dan & Joan Moore Memorial Handicap at Fairyhouse (2m1f, yielding) in January; weakened when fourth of 14 in a 2m1f DRF handicap, only 3l behind runner-up Golden Joy; Grand Annual faller. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Inconsistent and just one win from his eight chase starts but that came in a Grade 3 novice at Fairyhouse (2m1f, yielding) in January; weakened when fourth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (2m1f, soft) last month and today's forecast better ground could help; looks the type who may prove well suited by this big-field scenario; not discounted for top Irish stable. |
16/1 |

4th 5 |
2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Struggled in his first two handicap chase attempts before getting the hang of things with experience; shaped more encouragingly when third behind Drumgill at Fairyhouse in November, and now on an upward curve following an emphatic defeat of stablemate More Coko at the same venue; fair chance of confirming form with the second on these terms. |
