Hasn't really threatened over fences or over hurdles this year; beaten 12l when fourth at Listowel on latest; dropped another 2lb and blinkers now tried; others make more appeal. |

Better over fences than hurdles and hasn't been overly threatening in this discipline in last three races; can look a hard ride at times. |

Better chaser than hurdler; has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark in races at Wexford (behind Mercury Mission) and Sligo in recent weeks; others preferred. |

16th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
10yo who has been pulled up the last twice but he ran well for a fair way over hurdles last time following a break, over a 3m trip that probably stretches him; now 2lb lower than when runner-up over fences at Cartmel last June and he's not written off. |

It's now 13 starts since his last success and he was tried in blinkers when pulled up in 2m5f Cartmel handicap chase in August; others appeal more. |

Five-time winning hurdler hasn't been at his best for some time, but his two runs at this track last autumn were some of his better efforts. |

Five-time winner over hurdles is rated 49lb inferior to Ballyadam in that discipline; belated Flat debut when well held in Bellewstown maiden last month (5.5l off Battling Ski); good bit to find. |
