Won off 110 at Limerick (2m4f, good) in May; best run since on latest at Kilbeggan when a 2.75l second off 115 (20.5f, yielding); up 2lb for that and has placed at around this trip over hurdles; in the mix.

Last season's hurdle win came in 2m4f Clonmel handicap (good); returned from a 174-day absence in handicap chases in May, tending to jump right when third at Limerick and pulled up after never counting at Tramore; others preferred.

Returned from an absence to finish a tired third of seven on chase debut at Limerick nine days ago (2m4f, good); he has some decent hurdles form including winning a handicap from a mark of 80 last October; from the point-to-point scene so may have more in his locker with fitness on his side.

Dual hurdles winner added his second chasing win at Down Royal on St Stephen's Day when taking advantage of lower mark (2m4f, good to yielding); ran well in a Fairyhouse handicap hurdle prior to his win, but his most recent run here over hurdles was underwhelming when he went clear with one other and both weakened.

Runner-up in a point-to-point; gained first hurdles win in Listowel handicap in September (2m6f, soft) and has been off since; may have his work cut out from 7lb higher on chase debut on quicker ground.
