A three-time hunter chase winner for Willie Mullins but it was a forgettable first run back with that yard when tailed off at Gowran a month ago; cheekpieces are now added and returning here might float his boat as he was third in both the 2022 Topham and this race 12 months ago.

Very useful chaser in Ireland in his prime but his two point wins this year were gained in small-field races and he was only third of four when odds-on for run-of-the-mill hunter chase at Perth (3m, good) this month; cheekpieces removed; tongue-tie fitted; needs to up his game.

Very useful chaser in Ireland in his prime; pulled up in soft-ground hunter chase on stable debut in January but 2-3 in points on a sound surface since, with both wins gained in small-field affairs; sports refitted cheekpieces for this rules return; might be the answer.
