25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Signed off for Gavin Cromwell in Ireland with hard-fought win at Galway (2m6f, yielding) in the autumn but was pulled up when reappearing for new stable at Haydock (3m1f, good to soft) ten days ago and needs to turn things around quickly. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Absent since October when he signed off for Gavin Cromwell with a 2m6f win at Galway (yielding); stays 3m and should get this far, but would need to see some confidence behind him. |

26th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 111y |
11st 1lb |
Won two of his six starts over hurdles; latest second at Fairyhouse his most encouraging run yet over fences but only four ran and his jumping was a bit scruffy; will need to be sharper all round in his first handicap but the ability is there. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 5lb |
Good-ground bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins; four chase runs for this yard have been okay; well held in a handicap last time, albeit that was a decent contest and the experience will stand to him back in a novice. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
10st 13lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins; three beginners' chase runs for new yard back from a break haven't been much to shout about; may do better now in a handicap with an opening mark 7lb below his hurdles one. |
18/1 |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins; moderate in two runs over fences for new stable since returning from over a year off; others more likely. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Eyecatching bumper form before finishing close up in a Grade 2 hurdle for previous yard; hasn't kicked on from an encouraging start for Gordon Elliott, his form tapering off last season after a first (2m) and second (2m6f) over hurdles; ran okay on chase debut at Sligo but no more than that and his jumping was a bit scruffy at times. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 120y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner (beating Addragoole) last year was also fourth in a Grade 2 novice; pulled-up in a Leopardstown Grade 1 novice last February and was poor behind Barry Lyndon next time; needs his best on return/chasing debut. |
5/1 |

22nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Heavy-ground bumper winner last term; won over hurdles on stable debut at Galway (form has been franked) before a close-up third in Thurles novice hurdle; out of his depth in Grade 1 at the Dublin Racing Festival but could be thrown in off 130 on handicap bow. |

16-race maiden over hurdles; latest 14l defeat at Galway was a small step in the right direction but will need more. |
