Has returned to form of late and gained his fifth chase success, at Ffos Las (3m, good) last month; there was no disgrace in finishing second to a resurgent Tommy Beau at Fakenham (3m5f, good) this month and he holds strong claims while in this form. |

Three-time winner over hurdles for Peter Fahey; 0-9 in chases but promising effort at Listowel in a much stronger race than this last time out (17.5f, good) and in off the same mark here; big chance on that form and he has run well on testing ground before; claims. |

Chasing career appeared to be going nowhere fast until popping up at 40-1 in a 3m3f Listed handicap at Punchestown (heavy; cheekpieces removed), in which he was well beaten the year before; whether he'll follow one good run with another is anyone's guess, though the softening ground has helped his cause. |
