Five career wins include this race in 2024 (off 101) and 2m6f handicap chase at this fixture last year; light campaign this year, pick being Roscommon claiming hurdle second, most recently beaten when unseating two out in 3m Galway handicap hurdle; has to be respected given 10yo's record here.

Form & Verdict
0-6 in points but shown more under rules; however, form of two placed efforts in maiden hurdles hasn't worked out and he was well held when stepped up in trip latest; not obviously well treated on handicap debut.

Promising third of 11 in Sligo in July and bounced back from lesser run when 6l third at Fontwell last month; more exposed than some but should be involved and he ran well on his previous course visit.

Latest win came over fences at this venue and ran to a similar level in handicap hurdles on her next couple of runs; however, form has dipped since and she's vulnerable to better treated rivals.

Five-time hurdles winner (including here) is 1-6 in chases, with that win also coming over this C&D (2m6f, gd-yld); clearly likes it here but lacks a run and remains 4lb above her last chase win.

Form & Verdict
Won a handicap hurdle at Wexford last summer and several promising efforts this year, including over timber at Roscommon in August when only finding one too good; may have won that without a bad mistake late and arrives on the back of a facile success over fences at Galway on Tuesday; should go well from lower hurdle mark.

Converted easy maiden point opportunity last Easter (3m, good to firm), but 0-3 in restricteds after; repeat of form of 14l Plumpton maiden hurdle fourth (2m4f) on stable debut won't suffice; cheekpieces added.

Off the mark in a Limerick handicap hurdle in May; failed to complete on his next three starts but back to form when holding on gamely over C&D in August and the runner-up has boosted that form; 5lb rise is fair and should go well.

Is 2-12 over hurdles and rated 99; ran to an RPR of 111 when a 13.75l fifth of 11 on his chase debut in a beginners' at Wexford (19.5f, good), fading late on after making most of the running; worth a go at this shorter trip on that evidence; place claims.
