Made the breakthrough when winning a Roscommon handicap chase off 90 in June (2m6f, yielding to soft); chased home Cullenwaine over C&D next time when 15l behind; tailed off back at Roscommon last time (3m1f) when didn't appear to stay the trip on soft ground.

Consistent form this year before deserved second win over fences came in runaway fashion in 2m7f Killarney handicap last month; solid run off 9lb higher at same venue 8 days ago when a clear second to an improving sort; 2lb higher but definite player.

J: Shane O’Callaghan

T: David O’Sullivan

Modest strike rate of 2-22 over fences but was on a real going day over C&D last time, blowing the field apart by 15l (good to yielding); up 9lb for that, but if he's in the same form he has a huge chance; overall record suggests that's no sure thing though.
