Better known as a four-time winner on the Flat; maiden hurdle winner in 2023; ran out at the third-last when clear in a hurdle race at Fairyhouse in April 2024; returned from a long absence with a run in December; should be sharper now.

J: Ronan Whelan

T: Jarlath P Fahey

Unraced on firmer than good; fairly useful hurdler who's won from the front in three of his last four Flat starts, including at Navan (1m5f, good to yielding) and Killarney (2m1f, soft; Almuhit fourth) in his two runs this season; the latter was in fine style and a major step forward with the step up in trip, so this improving 5yo is one to take seriously despite his rise in the weights and a much stronger race.

One of three for yard; Flat winner (two on soft-heavy) is 0-8 over timber but he ran better on yielding ground at Killarney last time when a warm order but relegated to third place late on (no chance with winner); can build on that effort.
