Racing Post Spotlight

Has recorded his only two wins over 1m at this venue; ground was heavy when he scored off this mark last October, his 2024 win was on good going; his record of finishing second ten times strikes a note of caution; below best in three 2026 appearances.

30 Mar 2025·Legacy Wine Bar Handicap · Leopardstown
If there was ever a horse who deserved a win it's Dark Viper. He's a stable favourite and a good lead horse. He had a blow at the Curragh so we knew he would step forward fitness-wise and I think the better ground and step up in trip suited. It wouldn't surprise me if he went in again - Shane Foley, jockey, speaking to Racing TV.
