Placed many times over hurdles and was a fine 3rd on chasing debut at Galway (2m2f) after a break; this longer trip will suit better and should go close. |

3rd Oct 2023 Soft To Heavy 2m 2f 110y |

Usually thereabouts in maiden hurdles, posting an RPR of 125 when second at Cork on his penultimate run (3m, yielding to soft); this trip looks on the tight side for chase debut but his ability is respected. |

Bought for 110,000GBP after a point-to-point second at Tattersalls Farm in 2022 autumn campaign; placed in a pair of maidens in the spring, including third behind Ottizini at Downpatrick; appeared to have a fair amount in hand when winning a Punchestown handicap three weeks ago; stays well, progressive. |

11st 11lb |
Still lightly raced for his age but pulled up on all three starts for Henry Oliver this season, the last twice in handicap chases; sports first-time cheekpieces here; big leap of faith required to support him. |

27th Jan 2024 Heavy 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |

Bumper winner in 2022; showed some promise over hurdles on his penultimate run for Henry de Bromhead but he's been pulled up in both runs for this yard, including on his chase debut at Wetherby (3m, soft); has lots to prove and can only be watched. |

Third reserve; smart bumper form in 2019, highlighted by Punchestown win and Navan second; stands out on his Naas maiden hurdle second back in 2020 but recent history of bleeding of serious concern and jumped poorly when last seen in March. |

10th Apr 2023 Yielding 3m 0f 80y |

Smart bumper form in 2019, highlighted by Punchestown win and second in a Listed event at Navan; stands out in this company on his best form, namely a second placing behind the subsequent Albert Bartlett winner Vanillier at Naas with the high-class Stattler third; major doubts raised by a history of bleeding, with three consecutive instances in 2021-22; showed nothing on return at 12s. |

10st 13lb |
Gained a breakthrough success at Wetherby (2m) in March 2024 for Mark Walford; very lightly raced since though and off 13 months before a well-held sixth for his new yard in 2m2f Haydock handicap 20 days ago; needs to take a big step forward. |

Ex-Irish 9yo who won a Wetherby maiden hurdle (2m, soft) for Mark Walford just under two years ago; signed off for that yard (same owner) after some poor efforts, however, so interesting to see what he can do for new stable after 397 days away. |

Never in the first three; getting on in years now andhard to make a case for him; only positive is that his trainer has always been associated with having fine record with veterans; first reserve. |
