11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 50y |
11st 3lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles; won this last year and he returns on the back of a narrow win at Clonmel (2m7f); has to enter the equation. |
6/1 |

1st 6 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Two-time chase (including here) and hurdling winner has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark on his last three starts; likes it here but remains 5lb above his last hurdles win and stamina to prove for this trip. |
18/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 45y |
11st 4lb |
Dual-hurdles and chase winner is rated 8lb lower over timber; very comfortable winner of a handicap chase at Kilbeggan in August (2m4f, good to yielding) but unable to follow up back over hurdles off lower mark at Killarney; set a tall task in a Grade 3 chase at Tipperary last time; not out of it at his best but seems to be better over fences. |

2nd 13 |
14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
10st 4lb |
One of two for yard; last of three wins came at Listowel in 2023; fourth on both starts for this stable at this venue over 3m but beaten 31l (on heavy) and 52l (on yielding); on a dangerous mark now, however, and cheekpieces might provide a spark. |

11st 3lb |
0-12 under rules' but ran one of his best races when a 3.25l third of 15 at Clonmel (2m7f, yielding) last time, running on well from the rear; up 1lb but this is a lower grade and Kennedy now takes the ride. |

One of two for yard; 0-10 but has run well in defeat on a couple of occasions, including when a 5.25l third of 16 here in December (19.5f, heavy), shaping like further would suit; stayed on for an 11l fourth at Ludlow (2m5f, gd-sft) on latest off 10lb higher; interesting. |

11st 12lb |
5lb lower when winning a handicap hurdle in March; enjoys good ground and ran well for a long way on recent chase debut at Kilbeggan (2m3f, yielding); this trip likely suits him better and has possibilities in the new headgear. |
6/1 |

4th 1 |
15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |

Sole win came in 2m6f handicap hurdle at Downpatrick in March, decent effort off 5lb higher at Clonmel next time before unseating after three out 16 days ago at Punchestown; enjoys good ground and being patiently ridden; chase debut; has the hurdle rating to be on the shortlist. |

19th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 45y |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 0y |

Four-time winner under rules split evenly between hurdles and fences; latest win came in a Navan handicap chase off 116 in February (3m, soft to heavy); pulled up and beaten 29 l in two chasing runs this season, so a bit to prove now in first-time cheekpieces. |

Stays a lot farther and needs good ground; some good runs in defeat around Cheltenham and when second to Perceval Legallois in 2024 Paddy Power at Leopardstown; second off much lower hurdles mark in November, but moderate form since; reckon this track will be plenty sharp for him. |

1-14 over hurdles, the win coming over 2m7f in October 2023 off 109; bounced back to form when a 4.75l second on latest over C&D good ground; that wasn't his first good run here but the forecast rain is a worry, place chance again if it misses. |
