Won twice over fences within five days last October and generally in good form in defeat since; below best over 3m here when last seen but will be more at home back on this better ground. |

In excellent form for his current handler, winning a pair of handicap chases on better ground in the autumn, and probably surpassed that when done in the final stride by today's rival Four Country Roads at Navan in January; up 3lb for that and 18lb in total since last autumn but every chance that he could go close again. |

11st 8lb |
Conversion rate of just 2-27 over fences; several long absences following his last win in summer 2023, and hasn't been since a 47l last of five finishers in this race last year; best watched. |

Started off for Kerry Lee with two pretty good thirds in early part of last season, the latter over C&D on good ground, but was pulled up in refitted cheekpieces (retained) on next two outings and it's hard to know what to expect from him after a 200-day absence. |

Irish raider; still 9lb higher than when winning at Bangor (3m, good to soft) in October; didn't run badly when fourth at Perth (3m, good to soft) this month and will be favoured by any rain but needs to up his game. |

Sprang a 25-1 surprise in this race in 2023, his only success from 67 appearances on the track, placed eight times; moderate fifth here in 2024 and pulled up in last year's edition; should be better for a recent point run, but up against it at the age of 13. |

Modest overall strike-rate and had a lot of luck go his way when winning by 15l at Sligo (3m2f, soft); still, clearly in decent form and a 5lb rise shouldn't be too damaging. |
