Last time out

Finished 1 in the William Hill Champion Chase (Grade 1) at Punchestown on 28 April 2026. Shared the front early - lost pace after stumbling at 3rd - back in 4th by halfway - up to 3rd four out - into 2nd approaching two out - clouted that pole but regained command and stayed on strongly from the last.
