18th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 66y |
11st 8lb |
Former top-class novice hurdler still going strong at the veteran stage; beat two shorter-priced stablemates in this race last season; brought down at the 21st in the Grand National; smart form when chasing home stablemate Gaelic Warrior in the Oaksey Chase at Sandown; resumed with second to Affordale Fury here in November; form franked in the Savills. |

26th Apr 2025 Good 2m 6f 164y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
11yo who ended a long losing run when beating stablemate Classic Getaway by 6l in Grade 2 at Thurles in January (2m5f, good); brought down ten fences out in the Grand National three weeks ago; it's possible he might run into a place but a few of the others have stronger claims. |

1st Jun 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 0y |
11st 2lb |
Hasn't been at his best since winning last year's Grade 2 Red Mills at Gowran but a couple of subsequent runs read well, especially in the context of today's easier assignment; unlikely to be far away; any rain welcomed. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 80y |
11st 10lb |
Grade 2 Red Mills Chase winner at Gowran last season hasn't recaptured that level of form this term, although third in same event was a solid run; last of three in 3m Grade 3 Cork conditions event on latest, back to probably his optimum trip here so considered. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 100y |
11st 8lb |
Grade 2 chase winner was poor at Tramore on New Year's Day but was much better when third to a stablemate at Gowran last time; has to give away plenty of weight but is still the one to beat with a top rider aboard; hasn't won over this trip but looks likely to stay. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 100y |
11st 8lb |
Very smart chaser when at his best but he was well beaten in this 12 months ago and last season's placed efforts were remote ones behind class acts; current wellbeing is a bit of an issue. |

1st Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Decent sort has two wins apiece over hurdles and fences, including a Grade 2 at Navan last season, his best performance; however, he is rated a long way below all of these rivals and is an unlikely winner. |

2nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 100y |
11st 10lb |
A revelation this season; runner-up in a Gowran Grade 2 before chasing home Envoi Allen in Down Royal Grade 1; took advantage of a drop in class when scoring at Thurles; came of age with a terrific effort under a positive ride in the Savills here at Christmas; his race-fitness was possibly a major factor and several of his victims may be closer to peak shape now. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 136y |
11st 4lb |
Won the big race on this card three years ago, but handicapper had him after that and well held in this last year; recent form in points/hunter chases doesn't look good enough, but has been dropped sharply in the ratings. |

Classy operator at his best for Gordon Elliott; good to see him win a recent point but that was hard work and others in here appeal more. |
