10st 11lb |
Good effort when second in Listowel novice in September (2m1f, yielding to soft); jumping let him down when beaten odds-on favourite at Downpatrick; lost his chance with a bad error three out at Thurles in his first handicap; apparent second string for stable. |

10th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Lightly-raced 8yo ran the best race of his career by far when a 2.5l second in a better race than this at Listowel last time over an extended 2m1f (yielding to soft); this trip should suit him; leading contender. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 110y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
7yo who showed improvement to win a handicap chase at Navan (2m1f, soft to heavy) last month and again ran well when 10l second of 12 at Fairyhouse (2m, soft) a fortnight ago behind a well-backed winner; 2lb wrong at the weights today but this Irish challenger could have more to offer and is respected. |

2nd 10 |
5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 140y |
11st 2lb |
Dual hurdles winner is proving a better chaser, winning 2m2f Limerick novice and most recently career-best in landing 2m1f Navan handicap last month (soft-to-heavy) under today's rider; bit to find with Jigoro on earlier Gowran running but progressing and can be involved off 5lb higher. |

21st Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 1f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Dual hurdles winner got off the mark over fences at Limerick over Christmas in a novice contest (2m2f, soft to heavy); solid second over hurdles at Naas following that but poor next time; returned to fences at Gowran last time when weakened into an 8.25l fifth (2m, heavy); others preferred. |

10st 13lb |
Hurdle/chase winner; had lost her way but off a reduced mark she rediscovered some form when beaten about 6l into third at Downpatrick three weeks ago (2m2f, good); won't be far away if as good again. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Well beaten in 3m4f Dublin National on chasing debut in March and almost certainly fortunate when winning Tramore beginners' chase (2m5f, good to yielding) last month, given he was in fourth (albeit close up) when the front three came two grief two out; that said, he's with a respected stable and is still unexposed over fences. |
5/1 |

1st 5 |
20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 160y |
11st 12lb |
Back-to-back winner of a Wexford bumper (2m, soft) and a Carlisle maiden hurdle (2m4f, good to soft) in 2024; has failed to prosper since then; last of 11 finishers in a handicap chase at Leopardstown seven weeks ago. |

11th 10 |
2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 4f 61y |
11st 7lb |
Back-to-back winner of a Wexford bumper (2m, soft) and a Carlisle maiden hurdle (2m4f, good to soft) in 2024; poor in runs since, although his 13l third (2m7f, heavy) at Thurles last time was not without promise (winner won again next time); point-to-point winner is worth a market check on chasing debut. |

19th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 6lb |
In flying form this season, winning his first three starts, two over fences before hurdle win at Punchestown off 90; bad mistake two out when fourth in Listed chase at Naas on latest and the winner since finished second in the Leinster National; should go well from lower hurdle mark. |
8/1 |

4th 12 |
22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 4f 0y |
10st 1lb |
In flying form this season, winning all three of his starts; took a Clonmel handicap (2m5f, good to yielding) chase in October and followed up back there next time (2m1f, soft); exploited lower hurdles mark at Punchestown last month (2m3f, heavy); this is harder but he's in good form. |

Sole success a maiden hurdle win at Clonmel in October 2024; ran respectably back there in March (2m3f, soft) when an 8l second of 15; tailed off twice since; revival needed. |

18th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 30y |

His poor Clonmel run last time might have come too soon after a better effort there when an 8l runner-up; has to rebound. |

Generally weak form since course maiden win in October 2024 but step back in the right direction last week when runner-up in course handicap (2m3f, soft), no match for the winner; chance from unchanged mark. |
