11st 5lb |
Useful money-spinner, only three wins from 23 starts but placed 13 times, notably when beaten a short head in last season's Cork National; not at his best in the Porterstown but enjoys heavy ground and is leniently treated back over hurdles. |

Last win was in July 2021 and he's an 11yo now; however, there's no knocking his recent efforts in handicaps from 2m3f to 2m7f and has each-way claims despite looking handicapped about right. |

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. |

24th Jul 2024 Good 3m 1f 110y |

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. |

Three-time winner over fences showed the benefit of Tipperary comeback when a good deal better at Wexford; personal best still needed to win off present mark over fences all the same and is open to attack, although not a great deal of miles on the clock at this game either. |

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. |

Heavy-ground specialist; in fine form last season over hurdles with four wins in handicaps at 2m4f-3m1f; has blotted her copybook in recent months with an unseat and two refusals, the most recent three in a Grade 3 mares hurdle at Punchestown. |

Heavy-ground specialist in fine form last season over hurdles with four wins in handicaps at 2m4f-3m1f; looked likely to take advantage of 35lb lower chase mark at Tramore when last seen but refused to jump the last; tough task on these terms but market will be the best guide; blinkered. |
