10st 10lb |
Mistakes costly when pulled up in the Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham (2m4f, soft) last November when last seen; however, this front-runner was 3-3 in handicap chases previously, the latest win a convincing one at Killarney (2m5f, good to yielding) in August; certainly remains of interest. |

Hurdles winner has improved for the switch to chasing, winning the last twice; comfortable winner at Limerick in March (2m2f, good to yielding) before gamely winning again at Cork last time (2m1f, yielding); up another 7lb but he is lightly raced and improving rapidly. |

Veteran's most recent win came in this race last year off 2lb lower; rediscovered form in the spring in 2m4f veterans' handicaps, finishing fine third at Haydock and good second (having hit last) at Ballinrobe; has to be considered. |

Fair novice chaser before going pointing and hunter chasing; again showed his affinity for Killarney when winning a hunter chase there in May before disappointing at Listowel; more needed. |

Dual chase winner over 2m4f on good ground and stays 3m; had place prospects when coming down two out in a Grade 2 handicap at Haydock last month; cheekpieces fitted then are left off, as she goes back up in trip; Slevin rides for first time and yard in fine form. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Has faced stiff tasks over hurdles on her last two starts in races won by Wodhooh and Feet Of A Dancer; has a bit to prove on the wellbeing front as her runs before those (chasing and hurdling) weren't her best, but both her chase wins have been on good ground at about this trip and this Irish raider now goes in cheekpieces. |

Good record at this venue, including C&D win in 2024; 10-1 for Mayo National at Ballinrobe in late May after an encouraging run over hurdles, but was tailed off; chase mark is dropping and capable of going well back here. |

Dual-purpose type; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; best effort last year when fourth in a 24-runner handicap chase at the Punchestown festival; not a bad run at Fairyhouse after a break; however, Come On The Lads seems to be the yard's number one. |

2-7 over hurdles and some smart form in the book; better known as a chaser these days, but has been out of sorts in that sphere on recent starts; third at Punchestown on latest, but was still beaten over 9l; needs to revive on first run over timber since March 2024. |

Back to form with third chase win in fine style at Punchestown nine days ago (20.5f, yielding), making all to win by 3.25l; 5lb rise for that, but won this race off this mark last year; obvious chance if in the same form but consistency not a strong suit. |
