Improved with each hurdle run in Ireland, winning a Kilbeggan maiden in May; hasn't threatened the winner in his two British novice hurdles but they were good horses ahead of him; ground should be fine for him on handicap debut. |

Three hurdle wins in Ireland during 2023 but a close second over fences at Catterick (about 1m7f, good) in January came from out of the blue and hasn't been repeated since; returns to hurdles with a cloud hanging over him. |

Seemingly back in good form when close second to short-odds favourite at Catterick (1m7f, good) on New Year's Day, his third start for Joanne Foster, but pulled up there twice since and now has it all to prove again; tongue-tie (worn on penultimate start) refitted. |

Course winner over hurdles on testing ground; 1-6 over fences, the win coming on heavy ground at Tramore; not a bad effort back there on latest (15.5f, good) when a 14.5l fourth of 14 and eased 2lb; could go well if the forecast rain materialises. |

Won over hurdles at Punchestown in January (2m, sft-hvy); his C&D novice chase win came on testing ground too and it was yielding when he won here over hurdles; goes well fresh so lack of a recent run isn't a concern but could do with some rain. |
