In front when falling four out at Wexford in July on second chase start and a final-fence blunder proved costly when second there in August last time; could do with cutting out the mistakes but the first-time cheekpieces may help in that regard; one of two for last year's winning Irish yard.

Two hurdle wins for John McConnell at 2m4f; out of form last season; some promise when fourth on his stable/chasing debut at Kilbeggan, 3 1/2l behind today's rival Harsh; made a mistake at the last then; fell in the lead four out over C&D two weeks ago.

J: Conor Stone-Walsh

T: Ian Patrick Donoghue

Two-time hurdle winner for John McConnell at 2m4f; out of form last season but his stable/chasing debut at Kilbeggan last time was not devoid of promise when behind some decent rivals and he would have likely finished third but for a mistake at the last; that gives him something to build on.

Both hurdle wins for John McConnell came at around this trip; form deteriorated this past season and starts off over fences here for new yard.
