21st Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 7f 150y |
11st 8lb |
Cork handicap hurdle winner (3m1f, soft) built upon a decent chasing debut to win a Fairyhouse novice chase by 14l next time (2m6f, yielding); looked bred to stay 3m2f trip in a Fairyhouse novice chase last time but weakened into third behind Rokathir and Maxi Mac Gold; based on that, drop to this trip seems the right move, and it's still early day over fences; interesting. |
7/1 |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 2f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Fourth on chasing debut at Cork when 8-1, with Showurappreciation 19.5l behind him that day; sent off favourite in a novice contest here last time (2m5f, yielding) and won easily by 14l; he's closely related to Irish National winner Our Duke so should enjoy this trip and the ground should be no cause for concern either. |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 5f 150y |
11st 9lb |
Winner of a Cork handicap hurdle in April (3m, soft) and made a positive start to his chasing career when fourth of 15 on seasonal return back at Cork in November (2m5f, yielding); strong in the market for the original fixture, so positive things are expected of him. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
10st 13lb |
128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson; remote second in 2m6f Fairyhouse novice his best run over fences for current yard, most recently pulled up after never travelling in 2m5f Fairyhouse handicap on Saturday; hard to fancy unless quicker ground brings serious improvement. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |
10st 13lb |
Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; beaten 14l in second over C&D in January before being pulled up in a 3m event at Navan; suffered the same fate in a Limerick race won by Kings Hill; questions to answer. |

Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; ran well up to the point of his fall two out over C&D on his second Irish start; fair second at Fairyhouse before being pulled up in a 3m handicap at Navan; out of his depth in a 2m Grade event on latest. |

11st 6lb |
Both wins for this yard have come on rain softened ground at around 2m4f; had been in decent form over timber before pulling up at Killarney last time (2m7f, good, jockey reported never travelled); may need softer ground. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 5lb |
In fine form, winning over 2m4f at Punchestown festival and good efforts off much higher marks since, chasing home an 8l winner over this trip at Ballinrobe and not quite getting home over 3m1f when third at Kilbeggan last month; trip/ground okay and should go well again. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |

In fine form; won by 11l off 12lb lower at Punchestown (19.5f, yielding); creditable 8l second of 16 off revised mark at Ballinrobe (22.5f, good), staying on well; step up in trip looks a good move on that evidence and should go well again off 1lb higher. |

Looked set to win over fences last time at Limerick when the saddle slipped on the run-in, which would have been his first score; has a chance if as good over hurdles today. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 150y |
10st 9lb |
0-28 under rules and 0-8 in chases but has run well in defeat on occasion in this sphere; decent fourth at Leopardstown (21.5f, yielding) in March; 8l second at Down Royal (3m2f, good) in April; modest fifth at Perth latest; needs to find more to get his head in front. |

11st 1lb |
Dual hurdles winner won on handicap chase debut here in November (3m, soft) off 110; poor in two handicaps after, as well as in a novice contest here (2m5f, yielding) last time when 73l behind Nelson County. |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 5f 150y |
11st 12lb |
Dual hurdles winner got off the mark chasing around here at the fifth attempt back from a break on handicap debut over 3m in November (soft); pulled up after a bad mistake at Cork 19 days later but appeared to have few excuses for his 28l seventh at Navan last time (3m, soft to heavy); capable of getting involved on his best day. |

22nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 3f 120y |
11st 2lb |
Won three in a row over hurdles in 2023/24 including here; yet to match that form over fences in 10 attempts, decent effort in 2m5f Fairyhouse mares handicap; didn't quite stay under forcing tactics at Punchestown latest behind a strong favourite in same ownership; steadily declining mark and looks nicely treated now. |

4th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 35y |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 5f 150y |

Progressive when winning three consecutive hurdles races in 2023/2024, one of them at this venue; yet to shine over fences, but well supported into 7-2 joint favourite here last time when a 4.5l fourth; all wins over hurdles came at 2m. |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 5f 150y |
11st 11lb |
Progressive over hurdles last year, and form went to a new level when a well-backed runner-up on chase debut at Killarney (2m7f, yielding) in October, where he might have won but for a mistake; too keen and didn't get home at Cheltenham later that month; didn't jump so fluently back over hurdles at Cork and was already in trouble when hampered at two out; needs to bounce back. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Progressive over hurdles this year (2m-2m4f) and form went to new level when runner-up on recent chase debut at Killarney (2m7f, yielding), where he might have won but for a bad mistake two out; the handicapper has reacted but this 6yo could have a big shout for his respected Irish trainer. |

One of three for trainer; three-time winning hurdler got off the mark over fences in some style when 10l winner of Listed mares' handicap at Fairyhouse (2m5f, yielding to soft); 8lb higher now, but big player if that win wasn't an aberration. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |

3-7 over hurdles but not the same level a chaser after eight attempts, okay run in 2m5f Cheltenham mares handicap in December, most recently chased home a ready 9l winner in similar Navan contest in February; 3lb wrong here so improvement needed. |

1-9 over fences; hasn't really fired in 2026 and failed to exploit lower hurdles mark at Galway on latest when 28-1; needs to rediscover best. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 60y |

Both wins have been at around 2m5f, including Kilbeggan beginners' chase last year; just okay run on latest in Wexford handicap hurdle over this trip in May; stamina remains a possible issue. |
