| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st 9 | 6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 3f 180y | 11st 3lb | Supreme winner two seasons ago; 0-7 in the meantime and has been chasing, last time beaten the thick end of 20l when one of the favourites for the 2m4f handicap at Cheltenham; if this return to hurdling and the first-time cheekpieces float his boat, then he might not be far away. | 6/1 |
| 6th 3 | 12th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 127y Class 1 | 11st 6lb | Has form on most types of ground; consistent sort who has never finished out of the first three in his completed starts; broadly suffering from a frustrating bout of seconditis since switched to chasing (2m4f/3m) but this return to Cheltenham may prove the cure, as he won the 2024 Supreme in sole attempt at this venue; major Irish stable landed this corresponding prize in 2019; on an attractive mark and holds solid claims. | 5/1J |
| 2nd 6 | 17th Jan 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 0y | 11st 12lb | Won 2024 Supreme Novices'; beaten odds-on favourite but decent form in two beginners' chases last season, notably when second to Brown Advisory winner Lecky Watson at Naas; off for a year before second to Predators Glory over an extended 2m4f at this venue; stepped up to this trip at Punchestown, one length down when brought down four out; worth another chance. | 8/15F |
| 11 | 31st Dec 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 7f 197y | 11st 12lb | Won 2024 Supreme Novices'; beaten odds-on favourite but showed decent form in two beginners' chases last season, notably when chasing home subsequent Brown Advisory winner Lecky Watson at Naas; off for a year before second to Predators Glory at Navan; stylish point winner in 2022; all three chase starts at around 2m4f; will be hard to beat if he stays this far. | 6/5F |
| 2nd 11 | 6th Dec 2025 Soft To Heavy 2m 4f 150y | 11st 12lb | Top-class novice hurdler season before last, winning Grade 1 Supreme Novices' at Cheltenham; returned early last season when beaten odds-on favourite but showing smart form in both beginners chases, clear second to Better Days Ahead over C&D and when chasing home all-the-way winner and subsequent Brown Advisory winner Lecky Watson over 2m4f at Naas; valuable chase experience over several of these and sets the standard. | 5/2 |
