Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st 5 (5) | 31st May 2026 Good 1m 5f 80y | 11st 0lb | Smart dual-purposer type got the Galway Hurdle in the stewards' room last summer and beat very useful Absurde in conditions' hurdle last month; his Flat run at Chester in September proved that he's worthy of this mark and showed he had a bit of boot when running well over 1m on AW pre-Cheltenham. | 8/13F |
| 1st 5 | 5th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 70y | 11st 2lb | Won the Galway Hurdle last year off 145 (awarded race by stewards) and has also won twice on the level (rated 91); trip and ground fine here and he finished well ahead of Absurde in the County Hurdle last month, though he had a fitness edge that day; talented claimer takes off 5lb and every chance at the weights. | 6/4 |
| 14th 1 | 13th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 | 12st 0lb | Very smart hurdler whose two visits to this meeting have produced a third in the 2024 Fred Winter and second to Kargese in this last year; improved again to win last summer's Galway Hurdle (pipped by Helvic Dream but awarded the race after suffering interference); below par when remote third to Lossiemouth in Grade 1 Morgiana in November but warmed up for this with a fine run on AW Flat last month over a trip short of his best; while his good record in top handicap hurdles (also second in 2024 Galway Hurdle) makes him a dangerous one to discount, he'll require a high-class performance to win off 156. | 40/1 |
| 3rd 7 (3) | 20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y | 9st 7lb | Very smart hurdler who was awarded last summer's Galway Hurdle after suffering interference; pick of Flat form in top staying handicaps when fourth at Chester; back from a break over inadequate trip and likely best watched. | 33/1 |
| 3rd 3 | 22nd Nov 2025 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 160y | 11st 12lb | High-class dual-purpose handicapper; second in last season's County Hurdle; promoted winner of the Galway Hurdle after suffering interference; back on the Flat for his last two starts; second over 2m at Chester; sixth of 19 behind Beylerbeyi in the Cesarewitch; steps into the big league with plenty to prove. | 18/1 |
