11st 7lb |
Three-time chase winner, including at Killarney in May (3m2f, good to yielding) is 0-6 over hurdles so has a 24lb lower mark in this discipline; hasn't contested a hurdle race since 2024 and never for this yard so he looks like a huge danger to all off this mark but this trip looks tight for him. |

Wide-margin winner of a Listowel handicap chase last year and confirmed his progression when winning the Killarney National in May; even with his 9lb penalty, he was well below par at Roscommon since; others preferred. |

11st 10lb |
Has a poor win record, 1-13 over hurdles and 1-30 over fences; however has been in the frame lots of times including last four chase starts up to 3m2f; should go well again off an unchanged mark. |

A record of 1-29 over fences but has been placed lots of times including at Limerick and Wexford the last twice; needs to do more but shouldn't be far away off an unchanged mark. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
10st 0lb |
Veteran with modest strike rate including 2m6f Tramore chase last summer on good; comes here in decent form though, most recently second to Krabat in 2m4f Limerick handicap last month after a break, having every chance; better ground here could see him turn the tables on that rival (1lb wrong). |

Eight wins over hurdles and going for three in a row in this race, landing previous two renewals under this jockey; beat Reverend Hubert by a head last year; after eight months off, comeback third in Killarney chase was a good effort; quiet since but can't rule him out. |

Veteran has notched up nine wins over jumps but is 1-9 on the Flat and hasn't won in this sphere since 2024; however, he was a close third in this last season off 1lb higher on good ground so he's not dismissed; 1lb wrong. |

Second runner for yard; won five times over hurdles and once over fences when trained in UK; three chase starts for this yard with best run coming when fifth at Limerick; needs a fair bit more. |

Useful performer for Henry Daly, winning six races, including an Ascot handicap chase; modest form in two starts for this stable, albeit trip and testing ground probably not ideal on latest; new cheekpieces need to spark. |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 15y |
11st 5lb |
Veteran gained a third win over hurdles over C&D (yielding-soft) in November off 7lb lower, his first win for over four years; went close off 3lb higher chase mark at Limerick 24 days ago; not one to dismiss on ground he'll handle. |

Chase win came in 2m6f Thurles beginners' back in 2021; first success since when landing 3m Cork handicap hurdle in December and good third over C&D at Christmas; two heavy defeats since, latest behind Dancing Jeremy over inadequate 2m2f at Thurles; bit to find. |

Back from a long spell in the doldrums to land the Connacht National at Roscommon (3m1f, yld-sft) in first-time blinkers (retained); hit with an 8lb rise for that and this ground may be on the quick side for him. |

Useful three-time winning hurdler in Britain; yet to show much since joining this yard and extended chase record to 0-8 when beaten 31l in the Killarney National last time; 2lb drop in the weights and new blinkers not enough to tempt. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Won a maiden hurdle here in 2023 and is 1-10 over fences; hasn't had much racing in the last two years but ran two fine races in valuable Cheltenham handicaps last winter; not as good after wind surgery in the Ultima handicap last time; player if at best. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Didn't jump well when 16l fifth to Myretown in this race last March (good to soft); solid course record otherwise and he twice made the frame here (3m1f/3m2f, good/good to soft) towards the end of last year; has had a wind operation since and he's an each-way candidate if jumping better than 12 months ago. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Perhaps unfortunate not to win this 12 months ago and returned in March with a highly commendable fifth in the Ultima given that his jumping was a major hindrance (had fallen the time before); simply never gave his running at Punchestown on final start; if he can find any fluency over his fences he'd be a danger to all; stable has won the last two editions of this. |

20th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |
11st 13lb |
Is 1-13 over fences with the win coming over C&D last summer off 91 (yielding to soft); hard to predict this term with some okay runs in defeat interspersed with poor efforts; his run at Galway was one of the latter when tailed off over fences but not a bad effort over hurdles here on penultimate; others preferred. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |

Mixes it between chasing and hurdling; consistent last year including C&D second over fences; a little less predictable lately, but couple of good runs at Limerick and jockey booking is noted. |

11st 12lb |
Point and hurdle winner is yet to score over fences but has lots of fine efforts to his name; only beaten 13l in the competitive Topham Chase at Aintree last time; this is a bit easier so has to be on the shortlist even though is unproven over this far. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 1 |
10st 8lb |
0-11 over fences and 14l behind Madara when sixth of 23 in the Plate at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) last month; however, that was still a respectable run and the fact he represents Willie Mullins, who has won three of the last six runnings and saddles three today, means he's not discounted. |
25/1 |

6th 7 |
10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Winless after ten chase starts but he ran two cracking races at about 2m4f on the New course here (good to soft and good) last spring off much the same mark as today's; has more to prove on this season's form but he has revival potential now back on less testing ground than last time and returned to a course that suits. |

Failed to complete in three of last four runs for Willie Mullins; modest start for this yard in the Midlands National, beaten 20l into sixth; this trip looks too sharp (sole chase win at 3m7f) and others have more convincing profiles. |

Dual hurdle winner is rated 128 in that sphere; hasn't been as good over fences in four starts but best effort came when fourth in a Clonmel novice last time; raced a bit awkwardly then; will need plenty more today. |

14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 0y |

Rated 130 over hurdles but yet to replicate that level over fences; beaten a cumulative distance of 97l in first three chases at Fairyhouse (2m5f, yielding), Galway (22.5f, yielding) and Leopardstown (2m1f, yielding); best form on good ground so needs the track to dry out. |
