Veteran has won this twice, including last year off 3lb higher; however, he has been pulled up on his last three starts so major revival required. |

Goes well fresh and again shaped nicely on reappearance over hurdles at Kilbeggan; 6lb higher mark as a chaser and overall record is not the strongest (1-10), although has a nice pull with King Ferdinand for a 9.75l defeat last October, so far from ignored. |
