Form & Verdict
Has won twice over fences, gaining his second win in a handicap chase at Wexford in June; not a bad run in his follow-up bid at Tipperary but it was a lesser effort when tailed off at Kilbeggan last time; first-time blinkers may spark a revival; drops back in trip.

T: John Patrick Ryan

13yo veteran has won seven times over hurdles; mixing chasing and hurdling lately but hasn't looked like adding to his haul; however, he has won here before over shorter and he is 5lb below his last winning mark; not totally discounted but a revival is needed.
