Two chase wins; went close at Listowel in September (2m6f, good to yielding); twice placed from three visits to this track; shaped quite well for this when fourth at Limerick ten days ago on first run after a break; made a lot of the running then, every chance with fitness advanced.

Two-time chase winner, including here (2m2f, good to yielding); went close off 1lb lower at Listowel in September (2m6f, good to yielding); lacks a recent run but goes well fresh; a drying track would enhance his chance.

Form & Verdict
Won over C&D in May off 94 and two good runs in defeat before disappointing effort here last month when let down by her jumping; remains on a competitive mark but clearly needs to jump better; doesn't want it too soft.

Won 3m handicap hurdle at Punchestown at the end of last season before placed efforts here and Clonmel but lost her way since; first-time blinkers need to spark a revival.

1-21 over hurdles, the win coming at Down Royal (2m5f, yielding to soft) in May 2022; hasn't shown enough in five starts for this yard to suggest he will be doubling his tally.
