Flat-bred but stayed 2m in bumpers, ample promise; disappointed in Flat maiden latest but in fine form previously, including when second on hurdling debut; ought to be hard to beat. |

Extended record under Rules to 0-11 in a Wexford maiden hurdle last month; could come on for that first run after 287 days off and shaped ok when fourth at Ballinrobe off 4lb higher last September; easy ground a query though. |

12st 0lb |
Downpatrick winner in June 2024 on good ground; ran only once last year; showed the benefit of a comeback run when beating Justicialism by 3l at Down Royal last month; rider reported he hung badly left at Downpatrick last time; decent chance if he handles this track. |

C&D winner in June 2024 on good ground; ran only once last year, fair fourth over C&D; showed the benefit of a comeback run when beating Justicialism by 3l at Down Royal last month; could be close in the rematch with that rival who was second again at Down Royal on Monday; Josh Williamson's claim a help. |

Dual hurdles winner; gained first chase success at Killarney (20.5f, good to yielding) when keeping on well to score by 0.5l; now 7lb higher but this represents an ease in grade and he's ground versatile. |
5/2 |

Dual hurdle winner who is 0-8 over fences; still made favourite last time at Thurles (2m5f) and might have threatened but for a late mistake; considered, though softer ground is probably his preference. |
