Former useful hurdler, winning four times in all and capable of good form, marks in the mid-130s when at his peak; down a long way in the ratings now; managed a good run when 9l second in a veterans' handicap chase here last month; fair sixth at Navan ten days ago, but others are better suited by these race conditions. |

Ex-Irish 8yo who is lightly raced; his Irish hurdles win was at 2m3f on heavy; chase win at Carlisle (2m, good to soft) in December on stable debut and ran respectably here (2m1f, soft) next time, but his step back up to 2m4f at Carlisle on latest start was disappointing. |

11st 0lb |
Safely held in handicap hurdles (2m4f-2m6f) on first three starts for Gordon Elliott but wasn't beaten far when fifth here (2m4f, good) on recent chasing debut and might build on that performance now back over hurdles and tried over 3m. |

18th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |

Some early promise over hurdles but she's struggled in handicaps in that sphere and was pulled up at Down Royal (2m4f) in March; has not been with Gordon Elliott for long and this return to quicker ground could help but she needs a major revival on this switch to fences. |
