Won for the first time over hurdles at Wexford in July (2m1f, good) off 9lb lower; held his form well in two Flat starts following that; appealing back over obstacles. |

Dual-purpose sort has got the hang of things in recent starts; won over hurdles at Wexford and backed that up with a close third on the Flat at Tramore (2m, good); place claims at the very least again off the same mark. |

Soundly beaten at big odds in handicap hurdles at this venue (11th of 12 finishers) and Sligo (last of 16) before showing dramatic improvement to win at Wexford last Friday; trainer suggested that the removal of a hood might have been a major factor; hard to find any positives in last season's form in Flat maidens; good Flat pedigree, unwise to discount. |

10st 9lb |
Has done most of his winning on the Flat in Britain, and has found a new lease of life over hurdles at his local track last month, following up a good second in a 2m1f handicap hurdle in early July by getting up on the line to land a similar handicap over the same trip three weeks later; up 6lb for those two efforts is far from excessive and he can be thereabouts once more with the step up in trip unlikely to be an issue. |

Five-time Flat winner is 0-15 over hurdles but he took second over C&D (good, 20-1) earlier this month; chance if he builds on that but his overall form suggests he might not. |

Won at Limerick (2m3f, good) last year; consistent sort finished third on first two runs for this yard, at Clonmel and Wexford, but ran no sort of race at Kilbeggan last time; has to be considered on balance of recent form. |

Returned for promising handicap debut at Down Royal in early May, none too fluent and short of room at crucial time when third of 20 over today's trip (good); later in month disappointing favourite over C&D, jumping letting him down; remains a potential improver given more fluent round of jumping. |

Winless from 15 tries over hurdles; respectable efforts without threatening the last twice at Wexford; related to winning chaser O'Faolains Lad so perhaps this discipline can unlock more from him. |
