11st 6lb |
Had a productive time last year, winning a hurdle and two chases; stays this trip well, but has been off since last August and this looks like a prep for Galway, where he has run well before. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Irish raider who won a small-field beginners' chase comfortably at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good) last month and was not disgraced in a valuable 2m6f handicap hurdle at the recent Galway festival; still unexposed over fences; commands respect. |
4/5 |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 108y |
11st 9lb |
In fine form over fences and hurdles; has won two of his last four starts, a conditions hurdle at Down Royal and a beginners' chase on latest at Kilbeggan; decent efforts in handicaps at Haydock and Kilbeggan sandwiched between those wins; needs a little bit more off current mark. |

19th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Dual chase winner from 20 attempts over fences; returned to form when second to It's A Breeze here last week where he wasn't unlucky despite some late interference; should run well with a repeat, but can be inconsistent. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
13th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Dual chase winner who has been more miss than hit since scoring in May last year; recent hurdle run in a first-time visor (retained) offered little encouragement, but he returns to fences off a handy mark; needs to rediscover his spark. |
13/2 |
|
5th 7 |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Won two chases at Hereford (2m5f, good) in April and May 2025 but has been more miss than hit since, with both runs this year underwhelming; reverts to hurdles with a visor added off a fair mark but needs to turn things around. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Disappointed at Huntingdon (a course he likes) in May, after a break, and didn't find much at business end when last of four finishers at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; on a good mark but arrives here with questions to answer. |
8/1 |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Looked rusty after seven months off when last of seven in 3m1f handicap hurdle at Huntingdon 23 days ago; this fairly useful winning hurdler can take a step forward now. |
7/1 |
|
6th 3 |
19th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 10y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Gained the last three of his seven hurdle wins over C&D (including 2024 edition of this race); absent since two small-field seconds in October (2m5f/2m7f) but there's a good chance he'll be primed for a big run on this return to Huntingdon. |
