Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6th 12 | 10th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 80y | 10st 12lb | Wide-margin winner of a staying handicap chase at Punchestown 14 months ago, but no real trace of that form since; switches from Willie Mullins to Gordon Elliott to try to improve his fortunes, but others preferred. | 33/1 |
| 4 | 9th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 2f 0y | 11st 3lb | Bumper and hurdle winner won a valuable chase at Punchestown last year over just short of 4m; not as good off higher marks since and unseated there last time; looks the yard's second-string on jockey bookings. | 14/1 |
| 11 | 2nd May 2026 Yielding 3m 7f 68y | 10st 11lb | Came good over fences in this race last year with 15l win (raised 14lb) on yielding; four runs this term in admittedly hot handicaps have been disappointing, including remote fourth in Leinster National, most recently pulled up after racing prominently for long way in Irish National; handicapper relenting but still 7lb above last year's mark. | 11/1 |
| 4th 6 | 8th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 3m 0f 174y | 10st 10lb | Bumper and hurdles winner came good over fences at the Punchestown festival in a 23-runner extended 3m7f handicap, winning by 15l; took a very hefty 14lb rise for that and never dangerous on seasonal return at Leopardstown at 50-1 (3m1f, yielding); never travelling when pulled up in the Theyestes last time; others preferred. | 22/1 |
| 15 | 22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y | 10st 11lb | Finished third in the 2024 Coral Cup at Cheltenham; failed to make any impact in his first five chase starts; step up in trip brought out major improvement when a 15l winner of Punchestown festival handicap over just short of 4m; hit with a 14lb rise; should be sharper than when reappearing in the Paddy Power. | 20/1 |
