Is 1-16 on turf and no win since June 2023; not bad efforts the last twice in a Naas handicap and a Gowran claimer but more needed back in a handicap off this mark; others appeal more.

Three-time Flat winner but has really come good over hurdles lately with two handicap wins at Wexford; hat-trick bid here but has a 14lb rise to contend with and seems to be very much a good ground performer.

Esticky End

J: Patrick M O’Brien

T: Tom McGuinness

Has done most of his winning on the Flat in Britain, and has found a new lease of life over hurdles at his local track last month, following up a good second in a 2m1f handicap hurdle in early July by getting up on the line to land a similar handicap over the same trip three weeks later; up 6lb for those two efforts is far from excessive and he can be thereabouts once more with the step up in trip unlikely to be an issue.
