Off the mark at the fifth attempt on the Flat when winning heavy-ground 1m5f Gowran handicap when last seen back in April, despite racing keenly up with the pace (second won next time); lightly raced 5yo runs well fresh but must overcome 6lb rise; player. |

Lightly raced 5yo was who runner-up in his final handicap over hurdles (2m1f; 2lb lower); sent off favourite for chase debut off this mark at Downpatrick and ran okay to be beaten 13l into third having jumped deliberately; if sharper for that experience he can go well. |

8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |

Better chaser with three wins; ran well in a couple of 2m Thurles handicap hurdles last November before resuming chasing but generally well held; tries again over hurdles (0-14) and cheekpieces added. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 20y |

3-22 over fences (including a 2m win here); back from 114 days off with respectable run at Downpatrick on latest (19.5f, good); sharper for that but probably not much margin for error off current mark. |

One of three for yard; Flat winner (two on soft-heavy) is 0-8 over timber but he ran better on yielding ground at Killarney last time when a warm order but relegated to third place late on (no chance with winner); can build on that effort. |
