10st 9lb |
Useful Flat sort on the continent has got his act together over hurdles, winning at Downpatrick and Killarney 109 days apart; seems best fresh but if he can back that up off 9lb higher then he is a player. |

Useful Flat sort on the continent got off the mark over hurdles last time at Downpatrick; got an 11lb hike for that, but goes well fresh and is still rated 90 on the Flat, so has to be respected. |

Gained his second win over hurdles when landing 2m3f Downpatrick handicap in May; withdrawn twice on good ground before allowed to take his chance at Galway last week but never counted on similar ground when midfield over 2m; back up in trip here, any easing in the ground would help his chances. |

Gained his second win over hurdles when landing a Downpatrick handicap hurdle in May; mid-division but not disgraced in a 1m5f Ballinrobe Flat handicap since; withdrawn twice on good ground so an ease in the ground would most likely enhance his chances. |
