14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |
11st 0lb |
Maiden hurdle winner in 2024 has won three chases since and is rated 128 in that sphere; was second in a Bellewstown claimer in August when last over hurdles; a spin in the charity race at Punchestown can have him straight; valuable 5lb claimer a help. |

25th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Reversed previous C&D form with King Roly under an aggressive front-running ride from Sean Bowen here 17 days ago (good); that wasn't without the occasional scare over his fences but he's clearly capable of going well again off just 4lb higher. |

17th Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 140y |
11st 11lb |
Hurdles winner is 0-7 chasing, having failed to complete on three of those; still not a fluent jumper although penultimate Fairyhouse effort was a solid one; hard to be confident in. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 140y |
11st 4lb |
Won a beginners' chase over C&D (good) in August 2024; dual-purpose sort has failed to add to his tally since and he is best on good ground; fit from the Flat but needs the track to dry out. |

12th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Three-time Flat winner; had a run in a novice chase before competing from out of the handicap at Naas on return to the Flat; this is a more realistic task, but trainer may have a better chance with Cleopatra's Needle. |

8st 7lb |
Three-time Flat winner; had a recent run in a novice chase but all of his best form in both codes is on good ground and he's 8lb wrong here; yard has stronger contender with Grann's Boy. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Very useful hurdler without being in the same league as some of today's opposition and she wasn't overly convincing in her jumping when comfortably held in two chases earlier this year; left former Irish yard for £28,000. |

124-rated hurdler won two mares' events last season on soft, the second a Listed handicap at the DRF; last of three on recent chase debut in 2m Ayr handicap where jumping novicey; may need more time to make her mark chasing. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 12y |
11st 4lb |
Has become hard to predict but travelled a bit better than he often does when fifth in a first-time visor at Ballinrobe; cheekpieces back on now and trip looks too sharp. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |
10st 2lb |
First reserve; won this last year off 9lb higher and then went close at Uttoxeter in a handicap chase the following month but has completely lost form since; yard amongst winners recently but he's hard to fancy on recent showings; new headgear combo needs to spark. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 50y |

Four-time hurdles winner had been expected (9-2) to leave recent poor form behind upong encountering better ground at Down Royal over fences 11 days ago but the revival never arrived; questions to answer now. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 90y |

Maiden over fences and just 1-21 over hurdles; well beaten over fences lately and others make more appeal. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Has won over hurdles but is 0-10 over fences; good ground given as a possible excuse when tailed off at Ballinrobe back from an absence; same excuse given when tailed off in a Punchestown handicap last time (2m, good); down 4lb but others preferred. |
