Useful novice chaser but hasn't hit those heights this season, albeit highly tried last 2 starts.
|
Useful chaser won a listed handicap earlier in the season but not in the same form in 3 runs since.
|
2/1, good second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.2f, heavy) 32 days ago. Much better over fences but that is reflective of his mark and probably better over further.
|
Sole win came in a maiden hurdle at Navan over 2 years ago but responded well to this headgear when very good third of 14 in handicap chase at Thurles (20.9f, good to soft) 48 days ago. Back down in trip. Looks competitive on form.
|
Posted his best effort over fences when 3¾ lengths second at Fairyhouse but was out of the race before it had begun in earnest at Leopardstown since. Remains low mileage in this sphere so merits consideration now tongue tied.
|
Career best when winning 7-runner novice chase at Down Royal (16.5f, heavy, 9/1) 46 days ago, easily. Opening mark in this sphere looks very fair and can follow up.
|
Promising over fences last season and bounced back to form when second of 9 in handicap chase at Naas (16f, soft) 57 days ago. One to consider.
|
Possibly unsuited by a return to further when third of 7 in novice chase at Downpatrick in October. Shaped better than the distance beaten suggests at Thurles on handicap debut after 4 months off 16 days ago and worth another chance to build on earlier promise.
|
One win from 25 NH runs but added another placed effort to his collection at Thurles (18f, soft, 22/1) 16 days ago.
|
Successful over fences at Limerick in December and was unlucky to bump into a big improver back hurdling at Naas. However, not in same form there 2 weeks later.
|
Latest win in chase at Listowel in September. 9/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap chase at Limerick (19.4f, heavy) 69 days ago. This demands more, however.
|
Didn't need to be at best when winning 6-runner handicap chase at Cork (20f, good to soft, 7/2) before finding Leopardstown too competitive.
|
Ended lengthy losing run in 9-runner handicap chase at Gowran last month and was able to follow up off an unchanged mark back over hurdles at Clonmel 9 days ago. However, hat-trick looks beyond him from out of the handicap.

Mount Frisco (10/3), Milan Forth (10/3), More Coko (9/2), Anotherway (6/1), Champagne Mahler (15/2), Jigoro (12/1), Maidenstreetprince (14/1), Folly Master (18/1), Moudan (18/1), El Champo (18/1), Path D'oroux (33/1), The Banger Doyle (33/1), Drumgill (40/1), The Electrical Kid (40/1)
ANOTHERWAY is getting the hang of things over fences now and his opening mark in this sphere looks very fair having scored in clear-cut fashion at Down Royal. Jigoro is on a long losing run but hasn't had many tries over fences and he responded well to this headgear when third at Thurles. More Coko was let down by his jumping last time but was an excellent second at Fairyhouse prior to that.
- Anotherway6/1
- Jigoro12/1
- More Coko9/2
