11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Champion Bumper second and Supreme third at last two Cheltenham Festivals; 4-4 over fences, winning three Grade 1s, but raced lazily in Irish Arkle (2m1f, soft) last time which has brought about this hike in trip; possibly the most talented horse in the race, but the trip is a real unknown and the fitting of a hood suggests even his connections have their doubts. |

2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Course Grade 1 novice hurdle winner last season and better in defeat when placed at Cheltenham and Aintree; bright start over fences at Down Royal and beat three-time chase winner Gold Dancer in the 2m4f Drinmore at Fairyhouse; backed that up with a game C&D display win at Christmas; ideally needs further but also capable of high-class form at this trip; looks the part despite slight doubt about how he will handle very testing ground. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 200y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Non-stayer (shaped better than the bare result) in the 3m1f Brown Advisory at Cheltenham having surprisingly swerved the 2m4f Jack Richards option; broadly progressive otherwise and scored by a wide margin at Leopardstown (2m5f, yielding) the time before, recording a very useful RPR; ran well in the Mersey over hurdles at this meeting 12 months ago; remains of major interest, back down in distance. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Second to Romeo Coolio and Oscars Brother on first two chase starts before impressing when winning an often-indicative race at Leopardstown over Christmas (extended 2m5f, yielding) by 21l; looked a leading contender for a handicap this week but yard instead opts to tackle this Grade 1. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 192y |
11st 12lb |
French bumper winner much improved on third attempt hurdling last term when readily landing 2m4f Leopardstown maiden in March (yielding); followed that up with good fourth in Grade 1 Aintree novices' at same trip (rated 137); potentially smart novice chaser and likely major player. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
11st 9lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner is 0-6 over fences; ran well in a beginners' here in November but beaten 21l and pulled up in first two handicap chases at Punchestown and Cheltenham; others have more appealing profiles. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
7yo who is lightly raced over fences and represents top Irish yard; went close at Fairyhouse in November on second chase start but his form has gone the wrong way since and he was soundly beaten at Punchestown last month in his first handicap chase; ninth in the Pertemps Final here last March. |

15th Feb 2026 3m 3f 60y |
11st 10lb |
Bumper winner; failed to add to a maiden hurdle win; remote third behind top-class stablemate Romeo Coolio on chase debut at Down Royal; went close in less demanding company over 2m4f at Fairyhouse; has failed to build on that in races at Leopardstown and Navan; cheekpieces fitted for handicap debut. |

10st 13lb |
Maiden and novice hurdle winner is 0-8 over fences and yet to finish in the first three; didn't run too badly in grade 3 handicap at the DRF in February but beaten 45l and pulled up both starts since; stamina to prove for this trip too; others preferred. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 80y |

Hurdles winner is 0-7 chasing, decent run in very valuable 2m6f Leopardstown Handicap at the DRF (soft) but never counted following month in Jack Richards Novices' Handicap at Cheltenham; others look more reliable. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
Has inconsistent form since switched to chasing and two non-completions were caused by bad mistakes; fared best of the eight runners from his yard in competitive handicap at the Dublin Racing Festival (2m5f) most recently but isn't certain to back up that effort. |

11st 7lb |
Improved to win a handicap at Thurles ((extended 2m5f, yielding; all wins there) in December; that has worked out but his form is still well off Grade 1 standard and he missed the Dublin Racing Festival due to coughing. |

10st 11lb |
Hurdles winner is 0-7 over fences and yet to trouble the judge; step in the right direction in a mares' chase at Killarney (2m5f, gd-yld) last time after successive pulled up efforts but more needed down in trip back in handicap company. |
10/1 |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 180y |

Hurdle winner last year but lost her form in that sphere; has run well at times over fences but pulled-up last two tries and not easy to fancy. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |
10st 0lb |
Sole win came in 2m4f novice handicap hurdle here last season; best of five attempts chasing this term when fair fifth (Mystical Goddess third) in 2m5f mares' handicap here in November; pulled up latest two outings so caution advised; 1lb wrong. |
