Half-brother to talented Chantry House; off the mark at fifth attempt in points at Quakerstown in April; promising run on hurdles debut at Cork when a 10.5l third over 3m (good); big drop in trip now; place shout.
Grade 2 bumper winner at the Dublin Racing Festival in 2024 (2m, soft); missed over two years after that win and soundly beaten on return in a Fairyhouse bumper in April; should come on for that and worth a market check on hurdles debut.

SR 100 suggests ability but reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Placed in two of three starts in point-to-points; shock win in Cork bumper on Rules' debut in April; jumping lacked fluency at times when beaten 17.5l on hurdles debut back there 15 days ago; more needed.

SR 94 suggests ability but reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Tailed off in opening bumper, but returned from an absence much improved to win a weak Tallow maiden point-to-point in February last year; 14.5l behind in a bumper here and returns from over a year off now.

SR 95 suggests ability but reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Looked highly promising when winning a 2m3f bumper by 11l here last year (second won Grade 2 over hurdles); career didn't take off as expected over hurdles last season; beaten easily at 2-5 by the Passing Wife at Punchestown; pulled up at Cheltenham last time in a tongue-tie that's now left off; not a rock-solid contender, but the one to beat.

Travelled best of all turning in at Limerick (3m, soft to heavy) but couldn't pick up when it mattered; will be of more interest when entering handicaps.
