4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Lightly raced in recent years; returned from over a year off to win at Listowel last year; has not scaled the same heights since although stayed on from a good bit back to be fourth in a handicap chase at the Galway festival; only got to the first fence at Listowel two weeks ago. |

Second runner for yard; three wins apiece over hurdles and fences, with last win coming in this a year ago off 2lb lower; posted a good run at Galway last time from out of the weights; was behind Coming Up Easy then but it should be closer today. |

Owned by Galway people but hasn't clicked here yet, although has run well over hurdles at this venue; last win was over similar trip at last year's Listowel festival, but 8lb higher now because he's well out of the handicap. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 40y |
11st 12lb |
Consistent handicap chaser who had some good runs in top handicaps last season, such as fifth in the Grand Annual and fourth in Red Rum; returned from 99 days off with fifth at Killarney 22 days ago, weakening after being tight for room in the straight; should prove sharper for that and player if so; question whether step up in trip will suit but won his beginners chase over this distance two years ago. |

Two chase wins came in 2024 but some good runs in competitive handicaps last season, notably Grand Annual fifth and decent fourth in Red Rum at Aintree; down in grade with conditions to suit, so big player. |

Returned to form back on better ground when fifth, beaten just over 10l, in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham (2m, good); he led jumping two out at the Festival and this less demanding track could be right up his street. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 130y |
10st 12lb |
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. |

Seven-time winner, last successful in a Listed 2m1f handicap chase at Fairyhouse in November; only bits and pieces of form since, a close third in a 3m1f conditions hurdle at Kilbeggan probably his best run; not dismissed, but others do arrive in better form. |

Better chaser (five wins, rated 123) than hurdler (three wins, rated 102); respected as a four-time course winner; most recent win was over fences at Wexford in May, has to bounce back from a poor run in a chase at Cork last Sunday. |

Still 7lb above the mark at which he gained his last chase win in March 2024, tough task on his first outing since the Punchestown festival; behind Dutch Scultz (fourth) but on the positive side, he was in front of Gaelic Art and Jasko Des Dames in that race. |

The last of three chase wins came in 2024; was placed twice on the Flat this summer before being second over fences at Killarney lately; poor at Galway since so has to rebound. |

Won this in 2024 off 1lb higher mark and timely return to form last month under forcing tactics, winning over 2m at Punchestown and only denied by a neck off 5lb higher over 2m4f at Kilbeggan; up another 3lb but likely big player again. |

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. |

2-30 over fences, both wins coming at Kilbeggan; is 5lb below his latest win but he's been out of sorts for a while and not an ideal preparation for this when falling at the fifth fence at Kilbeggan just six days ago; fourth in this last year but others make more appeal. |

Dual-purpose sort is on a long losing run; in action on Flat and over hurdles since a good run over fences in the spring; blinkers added now; potentially interesting, though he needs to reverse Grand Annual form with Jasko Des Dames. |
