C&D winner; last scored in September 2023 but back to form with a 1.25l second at Clonmel on latest; raised 3lb for that but is still 10lb below his last success; C&D form figures read 41343; leading claims. |

One of two for yard; last of three wins came at Listowel in 2023; fourth on both starts for this stable at this venue over 3m but beaten 31l (on heavy) and 52l (on yielding); on a dangerous mark now, however, and cheekpieces might provide a spark. |

Three wins all at 3m, most recently at Listowel festival in 2023; back down to competitive mark on evidence of clear second over same trip at Limerick in October; following month in contention when brought down two out at this venue; well beaten fourth on yard debut at Clonmel. |

Useful soft-ground staying handicapper for Barry Connell back in the day; yet to win a point but only 2l off What Path in banks' contest in February; well held over the banks at Punchestown last month. |

Followed up a maiden hurdle success at Downpatrick with a novice hurdle win at Tramore in August; however, beaten a long way out on last month's return; needs to leave that run behind. |

10st 10lb |
Veteran has enjoyed a new lease of life this year, winning three of his five races (all over hurdles) between June and September; poor display at Listowel when race may have come too soon after Ballinrobe win; has limited chasing experience; did not jump well here late last month, well held by Toofareastiswest on that running. |

11st 12lb |
Punchestown 3m7f handicap chase win in April 2022 (good) remains his most recent under rules, but the first of two point starts netted him a last-gasp Bangor-on-Dee success in March; strike-rate of only 1-11 over 3m3f or more, but this would be easier than almost any of those. |

Won't fail through lack of stamina but this regressive 11yo never looked dangerous when well-held sixth over C&D last month and is out of the weights today; tongue-tie refitted. |
