Form & Verdict
Irish raider; fairly useful on the Flat a few years ago but has 0-34 strike-rate over jumps; just a respectable sixth over hurdles at Perth (2m4f, soft) a fortnight ago and needs help from the refitted cheekpieces on today's return to chasing.

Seven-time chase winner (once over C&D); nothing like the force of old but was runner-up on consecutive starts this summer, more recently when succumbing to Famoso in closing stages at Stratford (2m, good to soft), and the likely quicker ground here will be in his favour.
