30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 75y |
11st 4lb |
Pulled up after making a bad mistake in the race in which Release The Beast was second at Leopardstown in December; stepped up from a fourth placing at Naas when second in a valuable DRF handicap; Western Diego fourth then, Ballysax Hank sixth; each-way chance. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Reserve; up and down since winning at Leopardstown (2m1f, yielding) last March on second chase start but returned to form with 5l second of 14 in handicap there (2m1f, soft) last month in first-time visor (retained); not ruled out. |

2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 0y |
10st 9lb |
Won a C&D beginners' chase last March (yielding); disappointed on subsequent handicap chase debut when tailed off (made a bad mistake four out); pulled up after making a bad mistake in the race won by Addragoole here in December, needs to step on more recent Naas effort. |

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y |
10st 11lb |
A six-time winner under rules (three over fences) with her last win coming in a Limerick mares' chase in May when odds-on (2m4f, good); recent form well below best, including C&D handicap last month; tongue-tie added here and hard to see her featuring. |

6th 11 (5) |
13th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 4f 46y |
9st 2lb |
Dual AW winner; a long time since she ran on the Flat but has developed into a useful chaser and she'll handle the conditions. |

22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 176y |
11st 2lb |
Has been running in some hot contests including the Grade 2 mares' chase at Cheltenham when sent off at 100-1; her penultimate run at Cork when finishing third in a handicap chase was pleasing; this is more her level and she is a live contender. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
Mistakes costly when pulled up in the Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham (2m4f, soft) last November when last seen; however, this front-runner was 3-3 in handicap chases previously, the latest win a convincing one at Killarney (2m5f, good to yielding) in August; certainly remains of interest. |

1st 6 |
23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 180y |
11st 5lb |
Hurdles winner has improved for the switch to chasing, winning the last twice; comfortable winner at Limerick in March (2m2f, good to yielding) before gamely winning again at Cork last time (2m1f, yielding); up another 7lb but he is lightly raced and improving rapidly. |

21st Apr 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 25y |
11st 1lb |
Gained third win over fences here in January off 118 over 2m4f (yielding to soft); no impact upped in trip and class the last twice at Punchestown (3m3f) and Naas (3m1f); big drop in trip here may not be ideal. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 0lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles, making all over 2m7f at Clonmel in April and fair fourth here following month (2m4f); return to longer trip to suit and yard going well. |
9/1 |

4th 5 |
11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 3lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles; won this last year and he returns on the back of a narrow win at Clonmel (2m7f); has to enter the equation. |
6/1 |

1st 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Two-time chase (including here) and hurdling winner has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark on his last three starts; likes it here but remains 5lb above his last hurdles win and stamina to prove for this trip. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 60y |
11st 10lb |
A market mover when an 11.5l fifth here in May and was 11-2 when brought down early next time; he's a better chaser than hurdler, but that's reflected in his marks. |
6/1 |
|
5 |
30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 10lb |
Attracted heavy market support at Cork last time (2m3f, good) but could only manage fifth; punters likely attracted by now 19lb lower hurdles mark, but dual chase winner is yet to match that form in this sphere; may want softer ground than this. |
7/1 |

5th 13 |
10th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 50y |
11st 0lb |
Much improved sent chasing last season, winning twice (including here); sent off favourite over hurdles at Thurles and fences at Leopardstown when below best; again couldn't take advantage of significantly lower hurdles mark here last time (2m1f, yielding) when tailed off; attractive mark but clearly risky. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 140y |
11st 4lb |
Course winner at 15.5f; seems best on heavy ground and scored twice in those conditions earlier this year, over hurdles at Clonmel (16.5f) and over fences at Gowran (19.5f); capable off this mark and rain would boost his claims. |
10/1 |

3rd 4 |
2nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Won over fences at Gowran and hurdles here in February but was below form over fences at Limerick since; has a lot to find against some of these rivals; due to run in the 6.42 at Limerick on Tuesday. |

3rd 4 |
31st Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 200y |
11st 4lb |
Won over hurdles at Clonmel and fences at Gowran last month but disappointed here over fences last time so has to rebound; claims if he does. |
