Left previous ordinary form behind to shed the maiden tag at Sligo (13.5f, yielding) when beating Eastern Wind by 1.25l in a first-time tongue tie (retained) despite hanging left; has gone up 6lb but could be more to come; player. |

Sole win came in this race last year off this mark; eyecatching efforts on both recent starts, at Sligo and when coming from way back to finish fourth behind Miss Australie at Navan last week; looks primed for a bold repeat bid. |

Sole win came off 1lb lower at Down Royal (1m5f, good) last September; close third behind Anightaway and Eastern Wind at Sligo on latest and his good run over 1m5f here in June wasn't his first solid effort at this track (fourth in this last year); chance. |

Lightly raced since back-to-back wins over hurdles in 2023; on second start for this yard, bolted up over this trip at Ballinrobe where cheekpieces went on for the first time and usual tongue-tie was discarded; 13lb rise still leaves him eligible for basement grade. |

Enjoying a fine season; back to back 1m5f wins here (good) and at Down Royal (soft) earlier this summer; went up 11lb and only fifth behind a couple of these at Sligo in hat-trick bid on latest; more needed off 1lb lower. |

Had useful maiden form at three for Noel Meade and landed maiden hurdle last summer; hit form for this yard when close third over 1m4f at Limerick, and kept on steadily when beaten 4l over extended 1m3f at Killarney; waited with lately, so wide draw won't matter much. |

Winning hurdler for Noel Meade; regressive on Flat in recent years until much more encouraging run at Limerick on Saturday, coming from some way back under 7lb claimer when beaten a head/neck over 1m4f (good); Billy Lee now takes over and major claims off same mark but draw a negative. |
