| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2nd 7 | 1st May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 160y | 12st 0lb | Won this for the third time last year; contrasting profile in the Cheltenham equivalent now having finished second in four consecutive years; easily the best of the Irish this year, with Panda Boy fifth and Wonderwall (his conqueror last year) seventh; never got competitive in the Aintree Foxhunter, a rare blot on his record; has his quirks, but as tough as they come. | 5/2F |
| 9th 14 | 9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 2 | 12st 0lb | Won this in 2024 (heavy); beaten a neck by Barton Snow at last month's Cheltenham Festival (3m2f, good to soft), finishing a close second in that hunter chase for the fourth season in a row; at this trip he may prefer more testing ground than is likely today, but he's still entitled to respect. | 100/30 |
| 2nd 7 | 13th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 | 12st 0lb | Part of the furniture in this race after going agonisingly close in the last three runnings, especially 12 months ago when he stayed on strongly to push Wonderwall to a neck, after which he secured a repeat win at Punchestown; although it's hardly encouraging that he was turned over at 1-5 in his latest point, the winner is useful on his day and this 9yo didn't exactly arrive here 12 months ago with the wind in his sails; all roads have led to this and he has clear claims. | 7/2F |
| 1st 11 | 26th Dec 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 0y | 12st 0lb | The leading Irish hunter chaser of recent seasons; three-time winner of the championship event at Punchestown and also landed the Aintree Foxhunters last year; Cheltenham has been his bogey track but being three times runner-up in the hunter chase at the festival is still no mean feat; won this race two years ago and runner-up last year; just behind Panda Boy when close fourth on his reappearance at Ballindenisk. | 16/5 |
| 1st 8 | 2nd May 2025 Yielding 3m 0f 160y | 12st 0lb | prominent, soon chased clear leader, pushed along 10th, good headway before 3 out, led before 2 out, ridden out run-in | 10/11F |
