Winner of fifth point start; two chasing runs under rules have seen him tailed off and pulled up; nonetheless, there is encouragement to be found in his recent hurdles form with back-to-back runner-up finishes before a wide margin victory at Sligo last time (3m1f, good); he is a huge player if he can bring that form to fences. |
