Ex-Irish 9yo who came good for Gary Hanmer at fourth attempt, at Warwick (2m4f, good) three weeks ago; nudged up only 2lb for that and should also be suited by this right-handed track; respected. |

17th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 5f 150y |
11st 7lb |
Won a maiden hunters' chase Limerick two seasons ago and has amassed six wins in point-to-points including Castlelands Open last month (beating recent Cork hunters chase winner Dinny Lacey); had Sizing Diamond well behind when third in Down Royal hunters chase since; easier task here and the one to beat. |

12th Nov 2024 Good 3m 0f 74y |
11st 9lb |
Eight wins and nine seconds from 24 starts in points; too good for Ask D'Man at Stowlin in May; made a competent return behind the useful Wonderwall (a winner again since) and beat the useful Born To The Sea at Tinahely last month; 1-14 record over racecourse fences is a concern, but race-fitness should be an asset. |

Decent form in point-to-points but sole win under Rules came in a maiden hunter chase; beaten 16L into ninth in a handicap chase at Roscommon in June; wears usual cheekpieces but would be a surprise winner here. |

11st 12lb |
Is 0-3 in points and tailed off in a hunter chase at Down Royal in March; huge price when a much-improved third at Tipperary in April; pulled up on recent seasonal/handicap debut at Down Royal; can be ruled out. |
