14th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Won last year's Champion Bumper but hasn't looked a natural over hurdles, even when winning his 2m maiden that's worked out really well; comfortably beaten in 2m4f/2m6f Grade 1s the last twice, though he was boxing on in the latest (in first-time cheekpieces which are now discarded) and this longer trip could put a spring in his step should his jumping pass the test; dangerous to dismiss with Paul Townend back aboard; his standout form is on soft ground. |

11st 10lb |
Won the Grade 1 Mersey Novices' Hurdle last year (2m4f, good); ended the season with second over C&D; all three runs this season in Grade 1s, third in the Long Walk at Ascot (3m, good to soft), fifth in the Stayers' Hurdle at Cheltenham (3m, good), third behind Home By The Lee at Aintree; could be in the mix for Teahupoo's trainer. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Won the Grade 1 Mersey Novices' Hurdle here 12 months ago (2m4f, good); just two runs in current campaign and they've been positive performances in Grade 1s, finishing third in the Long Walk at Ascot (3m, good to soft) and fifth in the Stayers' Hurdle at Cheltenham (3m, good); this lightly raced 6yo could have more to offer back here in a first-time tongue-tie; chance. |
3/1 |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Stayed on well to win 2m4f Grade 1 novice hurdle at Aintree (good) last April and suited by the step up in trip when close second in Grade 1 at Punchestown (3m, yielding) later that month, when clear with Jasmin De Vaux who was impressive in the Albert Bartlett here previously; promising third behind Impose Toi in the Grade 1 Long Walk at Ascot (3m, good to soft) in December on sole run this winter, and this very lightly raced 6yo has the potential to take high rank in the staying hurdle division. |

11st 10lb |
Won a 2m beginners' chase at Wexford in October; went close in a 2m Grade 2 here in November; after a break, well below his best at Thurles in March; career-best with the help of new hold-up tactics when outsider of eight in Grade 1 Fairyhouse, beating Kappa Jy Pyke; third in a Grade 1 novice hurdle here a year ago; fair chance of staying this far. |

Smart novice hurdler at up to 3m last season; made a solid chasing debut at Gowran over 2m4f; won over 2m at Wexford in October; went close in a 2m Grade 2 contest at Punchestown in November; well below his best over an extended 2m5f at Thurles last time; faces a stiff task at this level. |

Beat Millforce in a point last year; odds-on for all three hurdle wins; not a bad effort when upped in trip and class in a Grade 1 novice at Punchestown when last seen, finishing fourth (3m, yielding); he looks a big player on chasing debut. |

11st 5lb |
Made amends for a fall on his chasing debut with wins in a beginners' event at Punchestown and Naas Grade 3 (extended 3m, heavy); struggled in the Brown Advisory and didn't land a blow (mistakes) when remote fourth in 3m5f Irish National last time; jumping still needs attention. |

Winner of both completed chase starts, including in slow-motion finish to Naas Grade 3 in January (extended 3m, heavy); will stay but has more to find on ratings than most and bulk of his form has come on testing ground. |

Decent novice hurdler last season but came up short at Grade 1 level; faller on chase debut at Punchestown last month but landed 3m beginners there later in month albeit task made considerably easier by two high-profile fallers; sole runner for top yard so respected, but suspicion is he'll have to improve a fair bit to play a major role; goes on heavy. |

Rated 137; won a Punchestown maiden (2m3f, soft) and a Navan novice (22.5f, soft) last spring; came up short in 3m Grade 1 novice when last seen at Punchestown in April; remains a stayer with potential and is the one to beat. |

Maiden and novice hurdle winner for Willie Mullins in 2024; lost way for that stable and pulled up in a Thurles handicap chase on debut for this yard in December, his fourth non-completion in six starts; new headgear combination tried. |

25th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 0y |

Rated 130 over hurdles; never remotely dangerous when third on chase debut and was towards the rear when unseating four out at Galway (2m6f, good; first-time tongue-tie; 25-1); others appeal more, including stablemate Uncle Pat who was a lot shorter in the betting than him at Galway. |
