11st 5lb |
Exploited his way lower hurdle mark at Wexford three weeks ago (2m4f, yielding); has got himself high in the weights over fences and, 6lb above his last winning mark, he may struggle to contain some of these. |

C&D winner two years ago (after a break) and scrambled home over similar trip at Fairyhouse in February; absent since solid Tramore run in April and given his record of running well fresh has to be respected. |

Got a punitive rise in the ratings for a gambled-on win at Clonmel on handicap debut last season; back from year's absence over Christmas and came on hugely from that Limerick run to land 2m5f Fairyhouse contest 10 days ago, jumping well and just holding on in a driving finish; 5lb rise and could have more to offer on only third start back. |

Really getting the hang of things over fences with handicap wins at Tramore and even more impressively at Fairyhouse; up 19lb for those two wins but taking a huge drop in trip here on good ground which looks a negative; looks beatable. |

Winner of this race for the last two years, last year off 105; more recent form not that inspiring but has faced some stiff tasks; handicapper has given him a chance and hat-trick can't be ruled out. |
