Only win in 2m Limerick maiden in 2022 but decent third in this race last year off 3lb higher; pulled up after never travelling over fences recently and blinkers now tried for hurdles return. |

Stand-out effort came in Limerick maiden hurdle when third but still not good enough form to be involved here; hasn't progressed in three starts since and difficult to see her involved. |

In good form under both codes recently; 3lb outside the weights at Leopardstown but took the third spot (3m, soft); backed that up when runner-up in a Clonmel novice handicap chase last month (3m, soft); withdrawn due to unsuitable good ground at Down Royal last time, so conditions a question. |

8th Feb 2023 Soft 2m 3f 165y |

18th Jan 2023 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Developed behavioural issues (refusing to start in races at Clonmel and Laytown) after several placed efforts last season; fit from hurdling and shaped quite well at Cork on penultimate start; 73-rated gelding has four seconds to his name on turf; definite chance if coming out of the stalls with the others. |

Front-runner won Tramore novice on New Year's Day and followed up later in month under similar tactic in 2m Naas handicap (both 2m, soft); jumping let him down at Thurles following month over a bit further but don't rule out him bouncing back and this easy 2m to suit. |
