Lost his way in the winter but refreshed from a break he was a pleasing fourth at Killarney, finishing upsides shorter-priced stablemate Wholelotofbusiness; in the mix. |

One of two for trainer; C&D maiden winner here last summer (good) and added a second hurdles win at Listowel (2m, good to yielding) next time when vanquishing Paul's Dream into a 3.25l second; form dropped off in three subsequent runs, including here; break needs to have done him good; remains 6lb above last winning mark. |

One of two for yard; followed up his Killarney maiden hurdle win (16.5f, good) with a 3.25l win on handicap debut at Listowel (2m, gd-yld) off 109; disappointing run in a Killarney novice latest when well behind stablemate Wholelotofbusiness; forecast rain a negative. |

Won this last year by 12l off a mark of 95, beating Targa Flavio and also scored on the Flat here in June; poor Flat run since but likely to be ripe for his double bid and a big player even off 12lb higher. |

In fine form for local yard; won off 13lb lower over C&D (heavy) in November; career best off 103 when a 1.75l runner-up in a C&D Listed handicap hurdle in December, although form not working out so well; nudged up another 3lb but clearly loves it here and he's a huge player in this modest grade. |

Winner of two bumpers (in 2020) and three races over jumps for Brian Ellison, the most recent in a 2m5f handicap chase at Cartmel last summer, pulled up in a point-to-point at Kildorrery on first start for Ian O'Connor; best watched. |

Sole win over hurdles came in a Clonmel handicap last June off 111; has slumped in the ratings and failed to exploit her reduced mark (97) when fifth at Clonmel 13 days ago; however, he is closely matched with Redwood Queen on running in a claimer at Tramore last month. |

Sole win over hurdles came in a C&D handicap last June off 111; has slumped in the ratings; potentially interesting despite having failed to feature in claiming races in his two 2026 starts; runs off 99, with a good claimer taking off 5lb into the bargain. |
