Crecora Hills

The Naas record is the most striking detail in the file. Two wins from just 3 visits to that track is not a fluke — it is a pattern. Some horses simply take to a particular course, whether it's the layout, the ground, or something harder to pin down, and Crecora Hills appears to have made Naas its own backyard. The first of those wins came on 16 April 2024, which is where the career story really began, and the horse has since confirmed that performance was no one-off.

The most recent win came at Punchestown on 4 February 2026, roughly eight weeks ago, showing that the Naas affinity does not mean the horse is a one-venue wonder. After that win, there has been a short break of 53 days, which trainers often use to freshen a horse up rather than simply fill time. Robert Tyner, who operates out of Kinsale in Co Cork, will be hoping that spell has done its job. Tyner's yard has been in decent form this season — 15 winners sent out — so this is not a team that runs horses for the sake of it.

The jockey partnership with Mark Walsh stands out sharply. In 6 rides together, Walsh has won 3 times — exactly half. That is an exceptional ratio and suggests a real understanding between horse and rider. When the yard keep coming back to the same jockey, and that jockey keeps winning, it tells you something. The earlier form in the last 6 races — three consecutive seventh-place finishes — serves as a reminder that this horse can go missing, but the two wins either side of that blip show it can also deliver when the moment is right. Crecora Hills is the kind of horse worth keeping an eye on, especially when Walsh is in the saddle and Naas is on the card.
