12st 0lb |
Point winner easily won a Tipperary hunter chase in May last year; has been hit or miss since, but one of his better efforts came at Downpatrick last month when taking third (3m, good), making a mistake at two out; way below that level over hurdles at Limerick last time; return to fences should help. |

Hunter chase winner at Tipperary last year has been hit or miss since; one of the hits came at Downpatrick last time when beaten 3.75l in third in a handicap chase (3m, good); reverts to hurdles now off 13lb lower mark but is 0-7 in this sphere without troubling judge. |

12st 0lb |
Point winner was just denied by stablemate Asphalt Cowboy in this race last year when favourite; won a maiden hunter chase here over 3m in March but couldn't cope with the rise in class at Punchestown since; this is easier and stable selected. |

Twice runner-up in hunter chases last season; beaten favourite both times; beat a subsequent winner handily in a maiden point in February; had little trouble justifying favouritism in a maiden hunter chase at Downpatrick; smart long-term prospect, this may come a year too soon. |

29th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 7f 150y |

Twice runner-up in hunter chases last season; beaten favourite both times; solid form behind his useful stablemate Asphalt Cowboy in this race 12 months ago before a less inspiring effort at Tipperary; beat a subsequent winner handily in a maiden point at Punchestown early last month; this looks like a suitable opportunity. |

2-6 in points and 0-4 in hunter chases, with all that form at trips between 2m6f and 3m1f; hard to know how he'll fare over this far in his first handicap and there have to be concerns. |

Shaped well at Tipperary last May in his first hunter chase; failed to match that form in races at Limerick and Thurles during the winter; form of his point-to-point wins does not amount to much; however, he is sure to know his job coming from this source. |

Point-to-point winner got off the mark under rules last month in 2m7f Limerick handicap chase despite hanging left late on; 6lb rise probably workable although different ground conditions now. |

Point-to-point winner remains a maiden under rules but best run yet on latest when chasing home 3.75l winner Rideau Canal in 2m6f Thurles amateur handicap chase last month (soft-to-heavy); 9lb better off with that rival here with talented rider's claim taken into account. |

Consecutive unseats in maiden hunter chases but got round to finish third in Thurles handicap (21.5f, soft) last month, albeit 15l behind the winner; given a forceful ride when fourth at Wexford (19.5f, soft) 12 days later; each-way claims. |

Moderate form over hurdles in the second half of last season; late developer at nine, showed ability when winning a maiden at Ballycahane in March, accounting for Chiefs Kingdom who had useful hurdles form for Paul Nolan early in his career. |
