11st 8lb |
Adoption of front-running tactics had transformative effect when seeing him score back-to-back wide-margin wins at Clonmel and Fairyhouse on heavy ground at start of the year; pulled up at Clonmel in February but bounced back when third at Clonmel last month (2m, soft); better ground is a concern. |

2nd Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 200y |
12st 3lb |
Adoption of front-running tactics have had a transformative effect; 23l all the way win off 91 here (2m1f, heavy) followed by another dominant win at Fairyhouse (2m, heavy) off 12lb higher; handicapper possibly caught up when pulled up at Fairyhouse (2m4f) but drop in trip should help. |

Adoption of front-running tactics have had a transformative effect; 23l all the way win off 91 at Clonmel (2m1f, heavy) followed by another dominant win here over 2m (heavy) off 12lb higher; raised another 13lb and steps up in trip and grade; clearly in fine fettle but may not get an easy lead here. |

Won at Down Royal last time in a tongue-tie, his second win over hurdles; 7lb rise looks plenty but still respected; handles soft so could be fine on this ground. |

1-18 over hurdles, second six times, including over 2m4f here last season; may step up a place following recent Downpatrick second when clear of the remainder in ten-runner contest over 2m2f; 2lb rise looks fair. |

Looked in need of further when keeping on for fifth over 2m at Fairyhouse; worth a market check to assess his chance relative to stablemate Good Option. |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |

Promise in his first two maiden hurdle runs but was poor at Fairyhouse last time; still one to consider on handicap debut and the market could clarify matters as one of three for his yard. |

10st 5lb |
Dual hurdles winner with his latest win being a C&D victory in January last year off 87 (soft) for Paul Hennessy; best effort for current yard was when runner-up behind a well handicapped rival here on heavy in February; hasn't matched that effort since. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 157y |

Best effort for this yard when second behind a well handicapped winner over hurdles at Clonmel in February; reverts to chasing now (won over fences for Emmet Mullins in the summer of 2024); others preferred. |

Scored on second handicap hurdle start over 2m3f at Clonmel in March (soft) off 99 when dropped in grade; moderate on the Flat at Roscommon 12 days ago; this is a tougher task than his win but can't be dismissed. |

Now 0-10 hurdling, pick of form when placed in heavy-ground Limerick handicap at Christmas; more recent form leaves him with a lot to find and new headgear combination tried. |

Maiden who has some decent placed form, most notably at Limerick (2m, soft) in April when beaten 1.75l into third; well-held third last twice, including over C&D; step back up in distance should suit; usually ridden off the pace. |

20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |
10st 0lb |
Modest overall form over hurdles; has run twice over fences (fell on latest) since finishing in mid-field in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Gowran in November; before that, not a bad run when seventh in a 19-runner contest over 2m at Punchestown. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 46y |

First of her two handicap runs in March was encouraging (sixth at Down Royal); failed to reproduce that form at Downpatrick; lack of a recent outing may be a drawback. |
