Looked like a possible future winner when third at this venue on his only start last season; form of that race looks ordinary in hindsight, but he still makes plenty of appeal in a maiden of this standard.

Consistent handicapper last season; last win came at Galway festival over 1m on soft in July; good effort over C&D when short head second in Irish Cambridgeshire in August; acts on all ground; last two hurdle runs of limited significance and should be fitter than most after them.

Has a modest win record but usually runs well in defeat; won at Galway and fine runs since including in the Cambridgeshire here; 7f was maybe a bit too short last time but has to be considered back to 1m.

Sole success over hurdles a Fairyhouse maiden (2m, heavy) in February 2024; beaten a head off 3lb lower at the Galway Festival last August (2m1f, good); shaped like this trip might suit when remote third behind Jacovec Tavern at Punchestown (19.5f, yielding) in sole start since; could go well.
