11st 12lb |
Ran away with Navan (2m, soft) maiden on second start for this yard last season and solid enough effort in Listed handicap at Fairyhouse afterwards; back from 10 months' absence when pulled up in 2m Naas handicap in February, having raced prominently to three out; better for that run but fair bit to find on ratings here. |

Dual-purpose; won a Naas maiden hurdle (2m, gd-yld) in April 2025; has come up short in handicap hurdles since and just okay runs on the Flat on last two starts; stamina to prove for this trip and others look more convincing. |

Won Cork handicap (2m3f, soft) on final start for Stuart Crawford 11 months ago; weakened quickly on stable debut in Chepstow Grade 2 (about 2m3f) in October before being well held in two chases in December; weakened again over 2m5f in Kempton's Lanzarote (good) last time but should do better given this significant drop in grade. |

Ran three times for Tom Gibney last season; twice second at Punchestown, including behind Kappa Jy Pyke, a leading fancy for today's Grade 1 novice chase; failed to improve at Navan on his third start; interesting as a rare jumps runner for Natalia Lupini. entitled to need the run. |
