Arrives here in top form after winning back to back handicap hurdles at Cork over 2m4f (Onefortheditch 1.5l behind in second) and 3m; has gone up a total of 14lb and this is tougher but can't discount in current form. |

Point-to-point and maiden hurdle winner notched up a first handicap win over 2m4f (yielding) here 17 days ago; raised 7lb and moves up in trip but should be competitive again, though wouldn't want the track to dry out (non-runner on account of gd-yld before). |

Flat winner was successful over hurdles at Limerick in December 2024 off 7lb higher; moderate recent form until a change of tactics almost saw him make all at Tramore (2m1f, good to yielding) when headed late home in this headgear combination; could go one better if adopting the same tactics. |
