OR: 104

Form & Verdict
Emerged from 403-day absence to get off the mark in Fairyhouse amateur handicap at this trip in November, rallying well under a positive ride; absent since but clearly runs well fresh and part of a strong stable challenge here.

Fairyhouse win last November was a fine effort after a long break; poor in three 2022 runs, including recent Navan event in which Na Caith Tobac was fourth.

Form & Verdict
Dropped in trip to record second hurdles win at Limerick last month, asserting from the last to beat The Big Chap over 2m4f; 5lb rise fair, although slightly shorter trip probably not in his favour.

Record of 2-25 over hurdles; was a close second over this trip at Cork when last seen; can go well but won't want the ground to soften too much.
