Three-time hurdle winner won a novice chase at this meeting last year; third on seasonal return in a Navan handicap hurdle but last two efforts over fences have not been encouraging; back over timber now and new headgear combination needs to revive.

Three hurdle wins and got off the mark over fences at Fairyhouse last April in a novice chase (2m4f, soft to heavy); joint favourite for the Paddy Power at Leopardstown over Christmas when a solid sixth (3m1f, yielding); never looked comfortable in Grade 3 handicap chase last time back at that venue (2m6f, soft); chance if bouncing back despite being 3lb wrong.

Three hurdle wins and got off the mark over fences at Fairyhouse last April; was well fancied for the Paddy Power Chase last time and was a solid sixth; needs a bit more from 2lb out of the handicap.

Three wins over hurdles last term and is rated 122 in that sphere; has had jumping issues over fences and been way below that level; first-time blinkers need to work.
