Failed to win over hurdles, second in three of his six starts; has developed into a better chaser; bolted up at Fairyhouse, form franked by the second Moudan in winning at Ayr; 11lb rise means that he has plenty to find in a renewal of Leopardstown rivalry with Raffles Dolce Vita. |

Reached his peak over hurdles when winning a valuable race at Leopardstown (2m, soft) last February but finished last in the County Hurdle here next time; the type to make a chaser and, after a laboured effort on his handicap chase debut at Naas, he fared better in a Down Royal novice in January; needs to show his jumping can hold up under pressure but this trip should suit better than the 2m he's been running over and plenty of potential remains. |

Very useful (133-rated) hurdler whose two wins last season included very valuable Leopardstown handicap; more of a slow-burner over fences this term, Fairyhouse beginners' third his best run; let down by jumping against more experienced rivals in handicap on latest when never landing a blow at Naas; back in novice grade and Mark Walsh remains loyal. |
