Numerous placings over both hurdles and fences but regressive in the spring over fences, recent Punchestown hurdles run none too encouraging either; handicapper giving him every chance but hard to be confident in. |

Three wins over hurdles at Ballinrobe in 2021; won over 2m4f here in March on heavy and placed over 3m1f (good) at Limerick last time; one of hurdles wins was over 3m1f as well so this trip looks too sharp. |

Irish raider who had been hurdling before a successful return to fences over 3m at Fairyhouse last time (heavy), having dug deep to make it 3-8 in this discipline; does seem to have a penchant for deep ground so that's the concern. |
