Bumper and three-time hurdle winner is yet to score over fences but was just denied by Conyers Hill at Down Royal in January; runner-up in a Tipperary handicap in May but his jumping was sluggish and he will have to be sharper on return; tongue-tie added.

Just 1-21 on the Flat but not beaten far the last twice; closely matched with Kevin The Great on Navan running earlier this month; didn't quite see out 2m2f at Down Royal latest; goes well here and big chance back down in trip off last winning mark for local yard.
