22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Blinkered first time when third of 14 on his handicap debut in this sphere at Thurles (2m5f, yielding) in January and off the mark over fences when landing fairly valuable event at Gowran (2m, heavy) last month; 22-1 and pulled up in Listed novice handicap last time but that had the makings of a warm event and he needs respecting. |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 140y |
11st 11lb |
Improved since going handicapping, decent Thurles effort followed by 2m Gowran win last month on heavy under a positive ride from today's rider; 5lb higher and this looks a much stronger race. |

7th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |

Second on his first two starts over fences last April/May; remote seventh behind Kopek Des Bordes at Navan in November; below-par when sharing favouritism in a Punchestown conditions hurdle in December; ran out of steam late on handicap chase debut over 2m5f at Thurles, 2m may suit better. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 65y |
11st 12lb |
9yo was once rated 132 over hurdles but has been sparingly raced in recent years and out of sorts in early summer; four previous chase outings came back in 2022, faller twice; hard to be confident in. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Fourth in the Fred Winter here in 2022 but beaten 20l when just 7-1 for this race in 2023; long layoff before last season and easily best effort since was his 2m4f non-handicap win with first-time blinkers (kept since) at Clonmel last June; fell in August on his second chase start and unseated over hurdles in September; absent since and others have more pressing claims. |
40/1 |

8th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 129y |
11st 6lb |
Rated 138; dual-purpose sort won his last start over hurdles at Clonmel in June (2m4f, gd-yld); fell at the third on latest start over fences at Wexford; has gone well here before and he's ground versatile; chance if that fall hasn't left a mark. |
3/1 |

6th Aug 2025 Good 2m 3f 130y |
11st 12lb |
Rated 138 over hurdles; decisive winner of a 2m4f conditions hurdle at Clonmel in June following a five-month break; blinkers employed that day were retained when runner-up over C&D on chase debut; this looks like a stronger race but should be in the mix again |

Nine wins in all spheres with the last of those coming in a Thurles handicap chase last December; poor the last twice over hurdles including behind Happy Jacky at Cork; has to rebound |

Flat winner who is now useful over hurdles and fences; runner-up over 2m4f at Clonmel before not staying 3m at Cork; exposed but shouldn't be far away. |

Second runner for yard; six-time winner including four over hurdles, albeit none over this far; never seen with a chance on both recent runs and much more needed. |
