16th Jun 2024 Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
11st 5lb |
Won his maiden hurdle here in 2021 for Henry de Bromhead; spells on the sideline since and pulled up on his last three runs on the track; off another six months and hard to make a case for. |

29th Dec 2023 Soft 2m 5f 70y |

Regressive for Henry de Bromhead after winning a maiden hurdle at Downpatrick in 2021; should be better for last month's point-to-point run but hard to make a strong case for him. |

Career has failed to progress as might have been hoped after a maiden hurdle win on his racecourse debut; reported to have bled when pulled-up at Clonmel in his first handicap chase; best watched for the moment. |

11st 13lb |
One of two runners for Gordon Elliott and Carl Millar claims a valuable 7lb; three time chase winner with last victory coming in June 2023; disappointing last time at Tipperary but the return to a right handed track offers hope; chase form figures of 4FF8 going left handed compared to 2612P101 going to the right; wears usual headgear and tongue tie. |
10/1 |
8th 1 |
2nd Jul 2024 Good To Firm 2m 1f 70y |
11st 12lb |
Should be better for last month's hurdles run at Wexford, his first outing since falling in a handicap chase at Uttoxeter last July, having won at Punchestown the previous month; 3-11 over fences; leading chance now with his fitness advanced. |

Seven-time Flat winner and has performed respectably in two starts over hurdles, even if his second run at Kilbeggan in July was a little underwhelming; extra couple of furlongs could well suit and looks sure to be thereabouts.

15th Oct 2024 Good 2m 6f 166y |
11st 0lb |
Prolific Flat and dual hurdles winner at a fairly modest level; long losing run but twice placed in claiming hurdles including latest when 6l off Cozone at Clonmel (2m4f, good); rider's claim brings the pair closer but still needs to find more. |
10/1 |

3rd Oct 2024 Yielding 2m 3f 206y |

Prolific Flat and dual hurdles winner; fair form under both codes this summer, placed in claimer over this trip at Bellewstown and not shamed in handicap company last time; well in at the weights, for what that's worth in a race of this nature, and good ground important. |

6lb higher than when winning a Punchestown handicap chase in June; second twice over hurdles since and a close enough fourth in a 2m Flat handicap at Clonmel since; a better chaser and hard enough to see him out of the shake-up if he produces his best. |
