RPRs 125/128 last twice so could be interesting off 109, albeit 5lb out of weights here; wildly flattered by 17l winning margin at Clonmel but did make really bad mistake early then and brilliantly ridden; not sure he is as effective on this ground; promising rider; just over 4l off All Those Years at Limerick when at level weights so obvious chance on paper of reversing that form.
