10st 9lb |
Back to form with a bang at Fairyhouse under this rider latest, winning by 5l with a few of these behind; a 9lb rise for that seems fair but overall profile suggests he's far from guaranteed to back that up; obvious chance if he does. |

Off the mark at second attempt in bumpers at Killarney last August; fine effort on return from a break to chase home an odds-on Mullins' favourite at Naas (15.5f, heavy); should be fine on this sounder surface and this longer trip will suit; leading chance. |

He was set to be the only Willie Mullins runner in last week's Scottish National but was withdrawn due to the heavy ground; 7yo who was delivered with what seemed a winning challenge under Patrick Mullins in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham (3m2f, good; furthest he's been) six weeks ago only to find that Ask Brewster battled back; up 6lb but has to be in serious calculations. |

Beat a useful type when winning a bumper and early hurdling efforts were promising; on third start after a year off, back to form when second (winner ran well off 115 since) over 2m4f at Listowel where he looked likely to drop away but plugged on; tongue-tie added. |

Bumper winner on good to yielding; 0-5 over hurdles and rated 113; leading claims on the form of his maiden hurdle runs at Naas and Navan last year but bitterly disappointing in both starts in handicaps in 2026; huge chance if he can rediscover best but comes with risks attached. |

Point-to-point winner; rated 130 over timber; got to within 1.75l of progressive Zanoosh on penultimate start in a handicap hurdle at Navan (2m4f, sft-hvy); bred for this game (dam a chase winner); this trip might be on the sharp side but can't dismiss. |

Quite lightly-raced 7yo with an upward profile, landing 2m4f Punchestown handicap on soft-to-heavy in November and fine run off 10lb higher over same trip at Navan a fortnight ago, finishing strongly to take third; step up in trip looks a wise move and likely improver. |
