Never looked at ease at Tramore last time but much better judged on his victory in a competitive 2m2f handicap chase here at the festival; likely to fare much better, although the trip is a small question |

Dual hurdles winner got off the mark over fences for the first time at the eighth attempt at the Galway festival (2m2f, good); 4lb penalty for that could prove pivotal and his overall form doesn't suggest that a follow-up is guaranteed; trainer won this race last year though. |

Landed a gamble over hurdles at Kilbeggan (2m3f, good to yielding) in April following a 458-day absence and ran well when third off 14lb higher mark there last month; showed little in three runs over fences in 2024 for previous trainer but may be a different proposition these days; market watch advised. |

A lot of Gigginstown's have been taking flight from Mullins' yard lately, and this modest performer will probably be on his way to Doncaster sales, rather than Elliott's, before long; did plug away over 2m2f when sixth of 20 here on Tuesday. |
