Added a second hurdles win at Limerick (2m7f, heavy) in March but safely held both starts afterwards off 6lb higher; back from a break and doesn't appear likely to have his ground. |

Course winner (2m4f, soft) in December 2024; got back to winning ways at Limerick (2m7f, heavy) last month; up 6lb and this is a deeper race but conditions fine so can't be discounted. |

12st 0lb |
Scored at the 25th attempt at Exeter (2m5f, good) last month and ran well off 6lb higher when runner-up back there under identical conditions ten days later; this hold-up performer could go well again but his overall record makes him a risky proposition for win purposes. |

Maiden's best effort a 10.5l third of 17 at Punchestown in January (19.5f, heavy); no show in three starts since and handicapper slow to relent; rain would improve his prospects but others appeal more. |

Best form has been here in testing conditions, winning over this trip last Christmas and good second over 2m7f in March; last month's Roscommon comeback was over an inadequate trip, much more expected of here but may not get the amount of rain he wants. |

18th Oct 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 0y |

Useful chase form at a modest level last season, runner-up three times, including over this trip at Navan and Fairyhouse; runaway winner of a handicap hurdle at Down Royal in April (3m, good) on stable debut; went up 10lb for that; got tired on return in a 2m4f Roscommon event last month; should be back at peak fitness now and will appreciate return to 3m. |

28th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 48y |

Useful form at a modest level over fences last season, second at Naas in December (2m, heavy) and bounced back from a below-par run with runner-up finishes at Navan (3m, soft to heavy) and Fairyhouse (3m, heavy); runaway winner in a handicap hurdle at Down Royal in April (3m, good) on stable debut; big chance despite 10lb rise. |

Consistent over fences recently; finished second at Naas in December (2m, heavy) and bounced back from a below par run with two runner-up finishes in his last two starts at Navan (3m, soft to heavy) and Fairyhouse (3m, heavy); makes stable debut back over hurdles off a 9lb lower mark, but may not be as effective over timber and ground also a question. |

Verdict
A competitive race for the grade but ONE AND ONLY looks like the solid option after a narrow defeat last time out when pulling nicely clear of the field and there could be more to come at this trip. A few others that could improve for further are Kilcrea Castle and Misty Milan who are worth checking in the market. Maid On The Moon and Muskerry Rock are both dangers from their reduced hurdle marks. [Phill Anderson]
