One of three runners for Willie Mullins; completed a hat-trick (bumpers/hurdle) last year; finished second/third in Graded races over 3m/2m4f the last twice; solid chance.

Dual bumper winner last season took a maiden hurdle over 2m at this track on seasonal debut; solid in defeat on next two starts, including a Clonmel 3m Grade 3 last time; needs more today but this trip might be ideal and is Townend's pick from three runners so respected.

Won a 2m3f Limerick bumper on testing ground last term, following up at Tipperary before landing a hat-trick on hurdle bow at Fairyhouse on November's return, defying inexperience; that form has worked out okay and while he was a beaten favourite at Navan since, he might be ready for a step up in trip here; now tried with tongue-tie and hood for the first time.
