11st 10lb |
0-12 as a chaser but ran well in first-time cheekpieces (joining tongue-tie) at Punchestown last time and won't be far away if taking to the blinkers. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
10st 13lb |
128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson; remote second in 2m6f Fairyhouse novice his best run over fences for current yard, most recently pulled up after never travelling in 2m5f Fairyhouse handicap on Saturday; hard to fancy unless quicker ground brings serious improvement. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |
10st 13lb |
Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; beaten 14l in second over C&D in January before being pulled up in a 3m event at Navan; suffered the same fate in a Limerick race won by Kings Hill; questions to answer. |

Bumper winner and fair 128-rated hurdler for Nicky Henderson, stayed 2m5f; ran well up to the point of his fall two out over C&D on his second Irish start; fair second at Fairyhouse before being pulled up in a 3m handicap at Navan; out of his depth in a 2m Grade event on latest. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

Maiden was just denied in a Gowran handicap last time when finishing 14l in front of Harty Cup, though that one has improved since; should run well off 4lb higher for a new yard. |

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. |

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

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
10st 11lb |
Won over hurdles at Clonmel in January; solid runs in defeat in handicap chases at Clonmel (2m, heavy) and here (2m2f, heavy); effective on good to yielding when successful over fences at Kilbeggan last summer off 87 (2m4f); player. |
9/2 |
Verdict
Kobalt St Georges took advantage of a lenient hurdle mark when rounding off the hat-trick at Punchestown. He has no hiding place from his current chase mark though, and DOYEN MAGIC should prove hard to beat after going close over C&D on latest. Topweight Big Stage is also respected. [Adrian Wall]
