| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3rd 11 | 1st May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 160y | 12st 0lb | Smart staying handicap chaser in his prime; has found a new lease of life, winning two hunter chases at Thurles (beat Lifetime Ambition by 9l) and Naas (beat Hunters Yarn by 4l); might have found the ground a bit too quick when finishing fifth behind Barton Snow at Cheltenham; could play a featuring part. | 4/1 |
| 5th 13 | 13th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 70y Class 2 | 12st 0lb | Has always had some class about him and he went off only 11-1 for the Grand National two seasons ago; lost his way afterwards but he's back in the good books after winning two hunter chases and the RPR he posted at Naas last month (3m, heavy; fine on good ground) was up there with his best; with confidence seemingly buoyed he's a must for the shortlist. | 4/1 |
| 1st 4 | 7th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 36y | 12st 0lb | A good staying handicap chaser without ever winning one; twice placed in the Paddy Power at Leopardstown, fifth in the 2023 Irish Grand National, third in last season's Leinster National at this venue; third on point debut in November; responding well to a prominent ride at Thurles; 9l runner-up Lifetime Ambition (stablemate of Hunters Yarn) is a solid yardstick. | 85/40 |
| 1st 11 | 18th Jan 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 184y | 11st 7lb | A good staying handicap chaser, though hard to win with (1-15), rated in the 140s at his peak; finished just in front of a below-par Its On The Line when third to Bartlemy Boy at Ballindenisk in November on his point-to-point debut. | 5/1 |
