Progressive 2m hurdler last season; second to stablemate Mister Policeman on chase debut at Fairyhouse in November; now 19lb better off but hard to be confident based on subsequent form; some encouragement from last week's Perth second, potentially well handicapped |

Point winner in 2020; won a maiden and novice hurdle at Navan in the opening months of 2021; ran only once the following season and only twice last season, when soundly beaten in third in races at Navan and Gowran; still young enough to make an impact over fences but needs further than this. |

Just 1-17 over fences and that 3m1f victory at Kilbeggan was in 2024; beaten a head at Limerick last year and a neck in Listed contest at Leopardstown in March, and has crept up the ratings as a result; another decent effort at Punchestown last time when Cobden got to know him. |

Sole chase win came in 3m1f Kilbeggan handicap in 2024 but career-best on latest when just failing to get up in 2m6f Leopardstown handicap in March (yielding-to-soft), his first run since August; should go well. |

Maiden hasn't troubled the judge in three runs since return from a 527 day layoff; jumping often an issue, though she was hampered when unseating latest; others appeal more. |

Over four years since he won back-to-back handicap hurdles for Brian Hamilton; lightly raced in recent seasons; bounced back to form on second start for Noel Kelly when second to Kalsman over 2m4f at Down Royal last month; notched another second behind the improving Bella Union over 2m1f at Down Royal on latest; may go one better now. |

Over four years since he won back-to-back handicap hurdles for Brian Hamilton; lightly raced in last couple of seasons and mark is much lower nowadays; bounced back to form on second start for Noel Kelly when second here over 2m4f; this shorter trip possibly not ideal, but obvious claims. |
