Useful hurdler; won a pair of handicaps in Cork and Thurles before disappointing when well-beaten in a novice hurdle at Thurles last time out over 2m7f; dropped in trip here and he needs to bounce back. |

Two-time winner was well beaten in this last year but ran a nice race on sole start since at Fairyhouse (3m2f, yielding) in January; 3lb rise for that 6l second seems harsh and this is harder but he has to be considered for yard that won this in 2024. |
