Gelded son of Galileo & Words ( Dam's sire Dansili ) who was last seen at Chelmsford 16 days ago where finishing 6th/9 however now stepping back up trip having found a suitable class 4 handicap to engage in here with his ideal gallop very well likely to be at his disposal given the horses enrolled to run here which will play extremely well into his strengths here at the Lingfield polytrack currently operating on a mark of 78 R Hughes's inmate looks poised for a big run here and can play a huge role in this Midnite Ain't Your Grandad's Bookie Class 4 handicap over on the business end worth noting he ran his best race for this yard on a 2lb higher mark over a similar trip on Kempton's polytrack on the 7th of January 2026 and is of serious interest stepping back up to a similar trip here jockey Finley Marsh takes the ride and can give Vice President a promising ride here at Lingfield . Respected .

Highly Promising gelded son of Tirwanko & Be Donn ( Dam's sire Brian Boru ) who made it 2/2 in the national hunt department and got off to a fabulous start on his hurdles bow when last seen over this course and distance 37 days ago winning in impressive fashion with 9.5 lenghts in hand worth noting the horse in 2nd on the occasion is a good prospect that went on to win impressively himself next time out with 9 lenghts in hand which really gives a good boost to the form of that 21 horse race that Ballyfad won impressively and with further progress and improvement most certainly due on the cards G Elliott's inmate looks poised to strike and add a Grade 1 win to his CV yard also saddles Koktail Brut here however Ballyfad is the percentage call in my point of view jockey Jack Kennedy takes the ride and can give Ballyfad a promising ride in this Tattersalls Ireland Novice Grade 1 Hurdle here at Leopardstown bold showing anticipated from this course and distance winner . Respected .
