Form & Verdict
Decent juvenile hurdler last winter and was having first Flat run since running away with 1m4f Leopardstown handicap in October when running well for a long way in premier handicap at Killarney last month (4l behind Harry's Legacy); entitled to come on for that and could go well if staying.

Veteran who hasn't won since 2023, stays a deal further and is on the downgrade now; patchy for his new yard this year and others make greater appeal back from seven weeks off.
