24th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 55y |
11st 2lb |
132-rated hurdler, although only a maiden win to his name, and decent stayer on the Flat as well, third in last season's Cesarewitch; has been hard to place over hurdles, front-running sixth over 2m6f at Galway last time; not bred for this game and stiff task on chasing debut. |
8/1 |

Is 1-12 over hurdles; well beaten back on the Flat at Royal Ascot last time; needs a return to best hurdle form but can't be ruled out. |

11st 4lb |
Useful hurdler has won three times at up to 2m4f in that sphere and is rated 125; looked set to win when taking a heavy fall on chase debut in an incident-packed four-runner race at Kilbeggan (3m); every chance if the fall hasn't left its mark. |

Dual-purpose 7yo, three Flat wins and two wins over hurdles (rated 120); Flat-bred making chase debut; probably best watched in this company. |

29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 58y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner at last year's festival on yielding ground; off the mark over hurdles at fourth attempt when dropped back to 2m in a four-runner Leopardstown novice early last month, outpacing odds-on favourite Grey Jude from the last; beat all bar the unconsidered Sept Etoile in a 3m handicap at Fairyhouse; strong chance. |

Punchestown festival bumper (yielding) winner last term, got off the mark over hurdles at fourth attempt when dropped back to 2m in 4-runner Leopardstown novice last month, outpacing odds-on favourite from last (heavy); type to keep improving, stays at least 2m5f; one to consider on handicap debut. |
