Very useful hurdler and last track success came here in 3m beginners chase just over a year ago (yielding) for Gordon Elliott; well held here in 2m6f handicap in November and reported to have bled from the nose when pulled up in 3m2f Cheltenham handicap on New Year's Day, having not jumped well; questions to answer on cross-country debut. |

10st 13lb |
A little in the doldrums before finishing second in a 2m6f Listed handicap hurdle at Galway in August and then ran well to be third in a chase at Sligo, though old jumping issues resurfaced late on; that part of his game will be tested around here in this big field and he might not stay the trip anyway. |

Bounced back to form with a fine effort in a listed handicap hurdle at the Galway Festival in August; jumping has been an issue at times in this sphere and with a rating of 133, has a lot to find with Jesse Evans on the figures. |

Two-time winner over hurdles; 0-10 over fences, best runs when third in pair of handicaps at Wexford and Galway last summer; struggled since but not beaten far when sixth at Tramore 26 days ago and return to good ground will suit. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Ex-Irish mare who has been a bit up and down for Dan Skelton but did run well at Leicecster last time (2m4f, good to soft) given one notable mistake that she made; won't mind returning to further and off this mark she's entitled to have a major say. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
First three runs this season were solid, notably a win at Exeter (3m, good) in November followed by a close second over 2m4f at Cheltenham; disappointed at Hereford a week later, though, and pulled up on return from a two-month break 16 days ago, so now has something to prove; however, a bounce-back would not surprise. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Won at Exeter (3m, good) in November on second stable start before close second of 15 to Party Vibes at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) in December; her run at Hereford seven days later may have come too soon (3m1f, soft; ground shouldn't have been an issue); remains of interest for top yard. |

Sole win from 19 attempts came over hurdles at Punchestown in January last year (2m4f, soft); 0-9 chasing and largely struggled in chase starts last season; pulled up when last seen at Navan in March; may need this. |

Verdict
Conor Stone-Walsh’s claim can help to compensate for the fact that THEONEWEDREAMOF (nap) is 2lb wrong. The mare can add to her Punchestown win in receipt of almost two stone from Shannon Royale, dropped in class after making her handicap debut in the Thyestes. It’s hard to knwo what to make of No Flies On Him but it would be risky to dismiss his chance in his first handicap. [Alan Sweetman]
