Ballinrobe 18:35 Odds Comparison

Smart hurdler who made his first chase start for nearly 2 years a winning one in 5-runner minor event at Clonmel in April. Backed up that effort when fourth of 8 in Grade 3 at Killarney (2½m) 2 weeks ago and he could make a bold bid on handicap debut in this sphere.

Has taken well to chasing, winning a Clonmel maiden on second start last season. Made the frame in Grade 1 at Leopardstown next outing and has held his form since, fifth of 22 in listed novice handicap at Punchestown (2½m) 24 days ago. Merits consideration.

Remains with only the one chase success, but good efforts when runner-up on final 2 outings in 2025/26. Continued in decent heart when fourth of 21 in listed handicap at Punchestown (3m) 23 days ago and he can make his presence felt.

Made a successful chase debut at Down Royal last spring. Largely below that level the remainder of last season, but after 6 months off he ran well reverted to positive tactics when third of 10 in 2m handicap at Wexford 18 days ago. Has won at around this trip before.

Top-class performer in his pomp with 4 Grade 1s victories but he's not the force of old, without a win since January 2023 and beaten 10 lengths in 3m cross-country event at Punchestown 23 days ago.

Without a win last season but still gave a good account in competitive handicaps. After 3 months off, ran well when beaten only by a progressive rival in 14-runner Grade 3 handicap at Punchestown (2½m) in April. Still needs to prove his effectiveness over this far, though.

Won a pair of handicap chases in 2024 and, back over hurdles, took a step forward from recent run when second in 2½m handicap at Killarney 2 weeks ago. Has a higher mark to contend with returned to this sphere.

Has benefited from application of tongue strap last 2 starts, opening chase account with 10-length success in listed mares handicap at Fairyhouse (21f) last month. Remains on a workable mark based on old form. RESERVE.

Useful hurdler at his best and capitalised on a lower chase mark in novice handicap at Limerick in March. Ran at least as well when third in 17-runner contest at Fairyhouse (21f) last month. RESERVE.

Useful hurdler who made a winning handicap chase debut at Down Royal (3m) in January. Well held next time but shaped as if back in form when fifth of 17 at Fairyhouse (21f) in April, doing too much too soon.

Got back on the up when landing a 17f listed handicap at Fairyhouse in November. Hasn't gone on from that effort since, though, unseating rider at the seventh at Gowran (2m) on latest outing in March.

Opened chase account at the third attempt at Tramore last summer and followed up on handicap debut in this sphere at Roscommon (2¾m) in September. Below-par effort upped to Grade 2 level at Wincanton, but she's not ruled out for in-form trainer after 6 months off.

Fairyhouse maiden winner on second chase start in November 2024 and shaped well on second handicap run in this sphere at the Galway Festival last summer. Ran poorly at Leopardstown when last seen in December but returns with yard going well. Worth another chance.

Matched useful hurdling form when winning a Galway maiden and Grade 3 novice at Cork on first 2 starts over fences. However, has failed to see things out in his 3 races since, seventh of 22 in listed handicap at Punchestown early this month.

Won 2 veteran handicaps last spring, with latest success at this course (2½m) a year ago. After 6 months off, looked a bit rusty in another veterans event when fifth of 15 at Wexford in April, but looks vulnerable to his younger rivals.

Without a win since June 2024, but back over fences and fitted with cheekpieces she was in the process of running creditably when departing 2 out in Grade 2 handicap at Haydock in April. Task is now to build on latest effort.

Useful handicap chaser at best but ran poorly in only 2 starts over fences last season. Was also below form on latest outing over hurdles, finishing weakly when mid-field in 23f handicap at Clonmel 6 weeks ago.

Good second on handicap chase debut in Connacht National at Roscommon last summer. Let down by his jumping next 2 outings, but after a couple of runs in points he returned to form when fifth of 14 in Champion Hunters Chase at Punchestown last time. RESERVE.

Came of age in 2024/25 with valuable handicap chase and hurdle wins around 3m at Leopardstown. However, below that level in light 2025/26 campaign, making no impression when unseating 4 out in the Grand National, and pulled up at Punchestown 23 days ago. Cheekpieces reached for.
