11st 5lb |
Made up a lot of ground when second in handicap at Cheltenham (3m1f, good) in October; disappointingly no show in a top 3m handicap at Leopardstown at Christmas but he took another valuable prize there (soft) five weeks ago; has a revised mark and that breakthrough win was over an extended 2m5f but the Cheltenham display augurs well, as do his connections. |

Maiden over hurdles and fences but a fine chase run to be second at Cheltenham two starts back; never involved in the Paddy Power Chase last time, but can do better; 1lb out of the handicap. |

Not unrealistically treated on the best of his hurdle form but yet to get anything going over fences (0-4) and never threatened to land any sort of blow from off the pace on his handicap chase debut at Listowel (3m; 10-1); however, that was after a lengthy break and his ultra-canny connections have secured the services of Sean Bowen; dangerous to dismiss. |

Runner-up in the Martin Pipe Handicap Hurdle here (2m4f, heavy) in March 2024; 0-6 over fences but he returned to form when third in a big-field handicap at Leopardstown (extended 2m5f, soft) last month, when shaping as though this first crack at a staying trip could be right up his street. |

Nearer last than first in the novice handicap chase (extended 2m4f) at the Cheltenham Festival last March but he's a better horse now, having won at Punchestown (about 2m5f, soft to heavy) in November and been close up in a big field at Leopardstown under similar conditions last month; even more needed and he might prefer slower ground than is likely today; yard runs two. |

1st Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 107y |
11st 0lb |
Record of 1-13 over fences but has been placed plenty, notably when second to Jagwar in the Plate at Cheltenham last term; hasn't been as good since and was well beaten over hurdles here last time; yard back in form, though, so not ruled out. |

2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y |
10st 13lb |
Dual chase winner last term and good third to Daily Present in 3m2f Kim Muir at Cheltenham; has struggled in big handicaps this season, exception a never-nearer remote third in Leinster National; never really recovered from bad early blunder when pulled up in Irish National on latest; others look more reliable. |

10st 10lb |
Dual chase winner last term and ran a cracker in the Kim Muir over 3m2f at Cheltenham; not at the same level in four runs since, including when always behind and pulled up at Leopardstown last time; needs to show some spark. |

Dual chase winner last term and ran a cracker in the Kim Muir over 3m2f at Cheltenham; hasn't been at that level since and was beaten a long way in the Paddy Power here last time, so has to do much better. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
11st 12lb |
Inconsistent since opening chase account in a beginners' at Naas in December (2m4f, heavy); ran well when a 5.75l fourth of 14 in a valuable handicap at Punchestown in February but pulled up at Cheltenham on latest; capable of better and preferred by Jack Kennedy. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Inconsistent in this novice campaign but ran well when fourth of 14 at Punchestown (3m3f, heavy) last month and that performance can be upgraded, as he was outpaced in the straight in that slowly run race but rallied strongly in the closing stages; it's almost certain there will be a better gallop here and he could be seen to very good effect up the Cheltenham hill. |

15th Feb 2026 3m 3f 60y |
11st 12lb |
Accounted for two Willie Mullins-trained runners to land a 2m4f Naas beginners' chase in December; failed to build on that in a 3m novice contest at the same venue; fell at the sixth in a DRF handicap; one of six for the stable; has plenty of weight and others may stay better. |
