28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 90y |
11st 3lb |
Modest strike rate over fences (2-19); smart handicap form; second in the 2024 Topham; won at the Punchestown festival last April; out of his depth in the John Durkan on reappearance; last of three in the Howden at Ascot, squeezed for room and failed to pick up from the last; justified his second-favourite status when chasing home Appreciate It at Thurles. |

Modest strike over fences (2-18); however, one of those wins came in fine style in a handicap at the Punchestown festival (2m4f, yielding) last April; no impact when 50-1 in the John Durkan on reappearance; outsider of three in the Howden at Ascot, got squeezed for room and failed to pick up form the last; capable of better |

Won the 2024 Martin Pipe, then third to Dancing City in 3m Grade 1 at Punchestown; won two small-field Grade 2 chases at this venue last season and finished third in the Brown Advisory; sixth in the Irish Grand National; returned with a satisfactory second behind a shorter-priced stablemate in the Boyne Hurdle here; capable sort is again the stable's number two. |

Won the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham two seasons ago, then third to Dancing City in 3m Grade 1 at Punchestown; won two small-field Grade 2 chases at this venue last season and finished third in the Brown Advisory; sixth in the Irish Grand National, running off a mark of 154; hurdles rating of 145 is the lowest of this sextet. |

21st Apr 2025 Soft To Heavy 3m 5f 37y |
11st 12lb |
Won the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham last year, then third to Dancing City in 3m Grade 1 at Punchestown; 2-4 over fences, including Grade 2 at Navan over 3m on soft to heavy, when jumped notably well; on better ground, failed to confirm form with Stellar Story when third in the Brown Advisory; big burden for a novice, rider's 7lb claim a major asset. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |
11st 10lb |
Six-time chase winner but no success since a Grade 2 win at Clonmel in November 2024; ran a cracker in this last year to finish a 0.75l second behind Found A Fifty; below par in both runs this season and needs to leave those tame efforts behind. |

3rd 3 |
28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 90y |
11st 8lb |
Free-going front runner; 6-16 over fences; ran right up to his best at Fairyhouse last April (2m4f, soft to heavy), losing out by only 3/4l to Found A Fifty despite a costly error two out; made several mistakes when pulled up in the Peterborough Chase at Huntingdon on seasonal debut; flopped in the Boyne Hurdle in 2023 on his only Navan appearance. |

21st Apr 2025 Soft To Heavy 2m 3f 170y |
11st 10lb |
Front runner; 6-14 over fences; has alternated between hurdling and chasing since being pulled up in this race last season, winning over timber at Cork and Auteuil and adding a Clonmel Grade 2 Chase (2m5f, good) in November; has often raced too keenly, including when beaten at odds-on by a stablemate at Gowran in February. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y |
11st 10lb |
Eight-time chase winner; beat Majborough and Energumene at Cork in December; won this race last year, holding off the late challenge of Saint Sam (Blood Destiny a 7.25l third); pulled up in the Champion Chase last time, but this is more his level and he is the one to beat. |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
11st 10lb |
Fared best of the rest behind the impressive winner in the 2024 Arkle but weakened into last of five finishers in this contest last season and has largely fallen short at Grade 1 level in open company; beaten 19l by Majborough at this year's Dublin Racing Festival and flopped when back down in class at Navan (2m4f; blowing hard post race) later in February. |
