11st 10lb |
High-class novice hurdler last season, gaining a deserved Grade 1 success at Aintree after three top-level seconds, including twice behind Sir Gerhard; put in a pleasing round of jumping on chasing debut at Naas; sent off favourite for the Drinmore but lost his chance at the eighth when he blundered and the saddle slipped. |

Recorded the most recent of three hurdle wins over two years ago; made a good start over fences at Naas, chasing home 12l winner Three Stripe Life after a couple of mistakes and being hampered by a faller; disappointing at Thurles five weeks ago, and held by Churchstonewarrior on that evidence. |

No win for two years over hurdles but made a highly promising chase debut at Naas 12 days ago when chasing home the very classy Three Stripe Life after a couple of mistakes and being hampered by a faller; step up in trip will suit and bound to improve for the experience; could well go close. |

Course handicap hurdle winner in 2021; bolted up on yard debut at Ballinrobe in September (2m6f, soft) before solid fifth at Listowel; below best at Cheltenham next time; ran well for a long way here (24.5f, yielding) over fences in December. |

Won a 3m2f Limerick handicap chase in May for the late Edward O'Grady; pulled up on next two outings (coughing on the first occasion); return to hurdling did the trick when he scored readily on recent stable debut at Ballinrobe; can remain competitive off 7lb higher, with the same talented 7lb claimer up. |

Off for three years after winning a Thurles maiden hurdle in November 2019; no show in three beginners' chases but much more encouraging third to Soloman Lane in 2m4f Punchestown handicap last month, mistake at the last proving costly; again let down by jumping when faller two out at Fairyhouse when holding every chance; on a competitive mark but jumping a concern. |
