19th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Hurdles winner is 3-7 on turf on the Flat; deadheated at the Galway festival (8.5f, yielding) before two lesser runs over hurdles; returned to the Flat at the Curragh three weeks ago to bag another win (1m2f, yielding); up 9lb now but should be in the mix again. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |

Dual-purpose sort was poor over hurdles last time but had deadheated at Galway (1m) on last Flat start; is just 1lb higher today and goes well with an ease in the ground so looks a big player. |

Punchestown maiden winner last winter (soft) and more recently dead-heated in Galway Flat handicap last month, having not had a clear run; later in week again didn't have the best of luck in running when decent fourth in 2m1f handicap hurdle at same track (soft); on a workable mark although would prefer it softer. |

Has improved since finishing third at the Listowel festival, splitting Jasko De Dames and Drumgill; recorded his third chase win at Navan in December; up in grade here following a 9lb rise in the ratings; handles testing conditions. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 130y |

Got his second chasing win when taking a C&D handicap in August by a short head (good), probably value for more (idled and rider misjudged finish line); raised to current mark for run at Listowel and not disgraced when a keeping on third (17.5f, yielding to soft); one of the likelier contenders. |

Record of 1-9 on Flat with the win coming at Navan last June (1m6f, good) off 73; good hurdler and added a fourth win in that sphere at Killarney last time; not discounted. |

Flat winner got his third hurdles win under this rider at Navan in September (2m, yielding) off 9lb lower; 1l behind Wholelotofbusiness when fourth at Down Royal in November (worse off at weights now); another positive effort when second back at Navan (2m, soft to heavy) when last seen in November. |

Dual-purpose; 3-15 over hurdles; scored at Navan (2m, yielding) on his last start in this sphere; raised 7lb and moves up in grade; needs a career best but the way he won at Navan suggested there could be more to come; chance. |

12st 0lb |
Hurdle/chase winner in Ireland but on a losing run now and, although he ran better when third of four finishers at Exeter recently than he had on his yard debut there, a few more pounds off his back wouldn't go amiss. |

Sole success came in a Limerick maiden hurdle in May 2024; placed several times since and made a promising debut over fences when fourth of 12 at Wexford (2m, good to yielding) 16 days ago; should win races but up against a serious rival here. |

Dual-purpose maiden has shown ability over hurdles but hasn't really been threatening in recent starts; however, he drops into 0-100 company for the first time so a big run would not surprise. |

Finally got off the mark over hurdles at Downpatrick (2m2f) last May; tried chasing again last month but well below par in handicaps (up to 2m2f) at Wexford and Limerick; needs this return to hurdling to spark a resurgence. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |

Comfortably justified favouritism at Punchestown last October (2m7f, good to yielding) when returned to fences, adding to his summer hurdles win at Galway; a long way below his best on heavy at Cheltenham in November; better at Leopardstown at Christmas; trainer has saddled the winner of this in two of the last three seasons; Aine O'Connor won it in 2017. |
