Won two of first three starts over fences, a beginners' at Downpatrick (19.5f, yld-sft) and a Kilbeggan handicap chase (20.5f, good) off 6lb lower; tame effort when pulled up over hurdles on latest and needs to rebound in first-time visor. |

Bumper/chase winner, 0-11 over hurdles; third in a 2m6f handicap on the first of two hurdle runs at the Galway festival; moderate fourth in a 3m handicap hurdle at Gowran last month; may struggle to make a hurdling breakthrough here. |

30th Sep 2024 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 63y |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner is 0-4 over hurdles but has run well in defeat more than once; the 2m7f trip may have stretched her last time at Ballinrobe; her fourth at Galway (2m5f, good) on her penultimate start looks strong form in the context of this race and she should be thereabouts. |

Running well since returning from a break; won a 2m4f Wexford bumper on her penultimate start; ran another sound race in fourth at Galway last time when outstayed by Arctic Gale; is 4lb better off now but not sure she can reverse the form over this longer trip. |

Listowel maiden hurdle winner last autumn and some solid efforts in decent company since; however, is held by several of these on that form and looks a place prospect at best. |

10st 7lb |
Debut bumper winner for Willie Mullins in 2022; hasn't looked progressive in maiden hurdles for current yard over various trips and not an obvious one to make an immediate impact in handicaps. |

Third foal; half-brother to bumper winner Lionnar; dam unraced sister to winners Level Neverending (useful bumper/2m3f hurdle) and Kalopsia (bumper/1m4f Flat/2m hurdle), half-sister to useful bumper/2m-2m4f hurdle winner Lunar Display; well-bred newcomer and no surprise if he proved difficult to beat here. |
