Won a chase at Limerick in 2023 but 0-13 over hurdles and yet to trouble the judge; cheekpieces go on after a moderate run over fences at Clonmel on latest; 4lb lower in this sphere but others appeal more. |

10st 9lb |
Relishes testing conditions and took advantage of them twice this season at Limerick when winning a 2m5f Limerick handicap hurdle and a 2m2f handicap chase; up 16lb compared to his win over timber at Punchestown when well beaten and found it similarly difficult off his revised chase mark at Gowran last time (2m4f, heavy); others more likely. |

In excellent form for his current handler, winning a pair of handicap chases on better ground in the autumn, and probably surpassed that when done in the final stride by today's rival Four Country Roads at Navan in January; up 3lb for that and 18lb in total since last autumn but every chance that he could go close again. |

Sole win came in 3m1f Punchestown handicap in late 2023; kept busy in recent weeks, standout on latest when third of seven at Limerick (24.5f, soft to heavy) 11 days ago; booking of Darragh O'Keeffe a plus. |

Prolific winner over hurdles (rated 144); did okay over fences last year and was fair third over 3m2f on his return to action at Killarney; stays 3m well, so this trip looks too short, plus he was disappointing when favourite for last year's Mayo National. |

Handy sort when on song, although badly off his game on his last two starts; has turned it around in the past all the same, and the ground should aid his cause here, provding it does not ease any further; far from out of it. |

Former C&D winner won at Down Royal off a mark of 109 in May; below par at Roscommon off 5lb higher subsequently and then pulled up here two weeks ago; hard to fancy after that effort and may need to drop back down the weights. |

Nicely on top over 3m2f at Down Royal (good; 5lb lower) but her jumping didn't really stand the test in Roscommon's Connacht National; each-way claims if finding greater fluency this afternoon. |

Added a chase win to his brace of hurdle successes when winning at Kilbeggan in August (3m2f, good to yielding); ran respectably next time at Ballinrobe (2m7f, soft); tailed off at Killarney when last seen in October; reverts to hurdles now, and chance at his best. |

Hurdle winner at this track and opened his chase account with a neck success at Kilbeggan three weeks ago; may have won by further without an error in the closing stages and 5lb rise looks workable. |
