Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6th 2 | 9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 | 11st 10lb | Probably acts on any going; high class over fences until jumping issues developed; has proved suited by the return to hurdles and an easy win at Leopardstown (2m2f) last time took his record in this sphere to 4-7; the best horse in this field if viewed on his peak chase form. | 4/1 |
| 1st 2 | 2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 2f 72y | 11st 7lb | Outstanding 2m novice chaser at his peak; became plagued by jumping frailties; fell in a number of Grade 1 contests; reverted to hurdles with a smooth 8.5l success at Punchestown on New Year's Day on seasonal return (2m3f, yielding), second won Gr.3 next time; this is much easier than the Irish Champion Hurdle (2m, heavy) last time, in which he finished last of five; huge chance. | 2/7F |
| 5th 3 | 1st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y | 11st 12lb | An outstanding 2m novice chaser at his peak; became plagued by jumping frailties; fell last season in Grade 1 races here, at Aintree and at Punchestown; return to hurdling did the trick at Punchestown a month ago, beating subsequent Grade 3 hurdle winner Glen Kiln and Cotswold Chase winner Spillane's Tower. | 8/1 |
| 1st 5 | 31st Dec 2025 Yielding 2m 3f 37y | 11st 4lb | An outstanding 2m novice chaser at his peak; plagued by jumping frailties since pulled up in the 2024 Champion Chase; made a series of mistakes before falling in last season's Melling Chase; fell again here in April; 2-4 over hurdles, course 2m winner; this test could suit if his hurdling technique is adequate. | 6/4F |
| 2 | 29th Apr 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 98y | 11st 12lb | held up in rear, headway 4th, in touch with leaders halfway, disputing lead when fell 2 out | 5/1 |
