Placed on the Flat for Jessica Harrington early in her career; consistent but highly frustrating over hurdles, second in eight of her 11 attempts, including in four of five since May; towards the rear in a 1m6f handicap at Listowel; would not be a surprise winner but her profile makes it hard to be confident.

Useful but frustrating Flat maiden for Ger Lyons; solid efforts in maiden hurdles at Sligo and Limerick; was ahead of Luker's Tipple on latter occasion and should confirm that form on 2lb worse terms.

Useful Flat maiden, runner-up in four maidens and rated 77 in that sphere; placed in three maiden hurdles, latest at Roscommon (2m gd) 17 days ago when beaten 6.25l into third, shaping well as was unsuited by slow pace; should be winning one of these soon and the one to beat.

Form & Verdict
Flat maiden has run well in defeat lots of times over hurdles (13 starts) including at Limerick last time; ground-versatile and has the highest published rating in the field so should be bang there again.

Finally got head in front after 19 attempts when landing Downpatrick maiden hurdle last month and has since followed it up with a novice hurdle and chase victory; needs to prove as effective on the Flat but didn't run badly in 1m3f maiden in April on ground softer than ideal; could be on a decent mark.

His sole Flat win came at this track in 2024 and is now rated 71 in that sphere; lots of good efforts in 10 maiden hurdle runs including on comeback at Punchestown last time; penalised 8lb makes it difficult for him but should run well.
