12st 3lb |
All three hunter chase wins have come at Downpatrick, including a repeat of last year's victory in 3m5f contest just 10 days ago; trainer admits he's a different horse at that track, which renders him opposable here. |

Bumper winner; won two handicaps last season, over 19.5f (soft) at Naas off 114 and then off 14lb higher at Sandown (2m4f, good); excellent 3.25l third despite trouble in running on seasonal reappearance in the Martin Pipe (20.5f, soft) when sent off at just 8-1 and 2lb higher now; Paul Townend now takes over; leading claims. |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 45y |
11st 12lb |
One of three for trainer; dual-purpose sort who has run creditably in the last three Melbourne Cups (rated 107 on the Flat); 2024 County Hurdle winner was well below his best in that race this season back from a break (2m1f, soft); improved display at Cork when 3.25l behind Ndaawi (16.5f, yielding); a good bit to find with Lossiemouth even if running to his rating, which he hasn't done so far this term. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 70y |

Classy dual-purpose sort who has run creditably in the last three Melbourne Cups (rated 107 on the Flat); below best after a break in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham but should be sharper now and Harry Cobden has won on him before; top rated at 153 and obvious chance. |
5/4 |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 13lb |
Won this in 2024 and third last year, albeit off much lower marks; operated a little below his very best on the Flat last year, including in Australia in the autumn, which perhaps raises a few doubts as to whether he'll be able to find the career-best hurdle performance which will be needed to defy such a lofty mark. |

Tramore maiden hurdle winner sprang a surprise when winning a four-runner Thurles Grade 3 novice (21.5f, yld-sft) in February; that form has taken a few knocks since, however, and Paul Townend has jumped ship; more needed up in grade. |

10st 10lb |
Off the mark at Clonmel in April (2m, soft) off 6lb lower; stamina test remains in doubt after moderate fifth at Tramore next time (2m5f, yielding); fell at the last when weakening on chase debut here last time (2m2f, good to yielding); capable of winning but beaten fav' last twice. |

10st 10lb |
Got off the mark over hurdles at Clonmel last month when dropped to 2m (soft); stamina test remains in doubt after moderate fifth at Tramore (20.5f) on latest; half-sister to high-class chaser Thunder Rock so must be of interest on chase bow back down in trip. |

Finished second to a well-handicapped rival at Punchestown (2m3f) in January and off the mark at Clonmel early this month when dropped to 2m (soft); 6lb rise workable, stamina test questionable. |

11st 12lb |
Won a 2m1f maiden hurdle at Killarney in 2024; fairly lightly raced since then but her runs haven't been too encouraging, although ran well for a 66-1 shot at Wexford last time when fifth of 14 (2m4f, good to yielding); shaped like this trip was worth a go that day. |

11st 7lb |
Point-to-point and Cork bumper winner; impressive winner of maiden hurdle in Dec '24 before failing to improve in Graded company twice; step in right direction when second to Topgun Simmy at Down Royal in May; heavy fall at seventh fence on chasing debut at Thurles 21 days ago after ten months off; yard won this last year, acts on all ground and capable of a big run. |

Bumper winner who landed Cork mares' maiden in December; outclassed in Grade 3 mares' novices at Fairyhouse and Limerick; not seen since second to Topgun Simmy (has won twice since) at Down Royal (3m) last May; beat the classy Dysart Enos on sole point-to-point outing; goes well fresh; big player on chase debut. |

Standout form in 14 starts came when beaten 1.75l by Je T'ai Porte at Limerick a year ago; not threatened to rediscover that run since and hasn't completed in last three starts; up in trip. |
