Good effort on stable debut for this yard at Thurles in February over hurdles (2m7f, soft) when third of 17; pulled up next time at Clonmel (3m, heavy); made chasing debut back at that venue last time in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when ninth of 14 (3m, soft); more needed. |

Three-time winner but nothing since March 2024 when he won a heavy ground handicap chase at Limerick off 94 (3m1f); wasn't shaping like a winner in waiting towards the end of last season; needs to find his form but perhaps the break has done him good. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 28y |

Best run in maidens an 8l second of 16 at Naas in December (2m3f, sft-hvy); handled quicker ground when a 4.75l third in second handicap start at Cork (24.5f, good) 16 days ago; this shorter trip will suit on the evidence of that run; in the mix. |

Maiden hurdler with uneven form; definite player judged on runner-up finishes at Limerick and Punchestown this season; the form of the latter has worked out well as the third Live To Laugh has won twice since; ran below market expectations at Limerick three weeks ago but big player if he takes to fences. |

Maiden with uneven form. second here in November (3m, heavy); next run here not at the same level and then unseated at Thurles; confirmed a liking for a stamina test when second over 3m at Naas last week; can pick up a race at some stage. |

Point-to-point winner is 0-15 under rules', but he has been running well in defeat recently; beaten just a nose at Limerick last month (2m7f, heavy); followed that with a runner-up finish at Clonmel last time (2m7f, soft); cheekpieces are added to the tongue tie now, but better ground is a bit concerning. |

Both hurdle wins came on easier ground but has been running well in defeat on good ground this year; having just third run over fences when third of 4 finishers in 2m5f Cartmel novices' handicap last month, only weakening late on; back in trip here and not one to rule out. |

Fell and tailed off in his two previous chases in late 2023; lightly raced in the meantime but returns to this discipline after three solid runs over hurdles, all handicaps from 2m1f to 2m4f; likely to go well again if he still fancies fences. |

Off the mark in his second handicap start at Fairyhouse in January (2m4f, soft); hit with a 10lb rise for that and pulled up when upped to 2m7f at Thurles (signs of delayed recovery post race); needs to bounce back with a tongue tie added but big contender if he does. |
