One of his two chase wins came over C&D, that was in 2023; out of form this year and not easy to fancy at present. |

Has improved since finishing third at the Listowel festival, splitting Jasko De Dames and Drumgill; recorded his third chase win at Navan in December; up in grade here following a 9lb rise in the ratings; handles testing conditions. |

Got his second chasing win when taking a C&D handicap in August by a short head (good), probably value for more (idled and rider misjudged finish line); raised to current mark for run at Listowel and not disgraced when a keeping on third (17.5f, yielding to soft); one of the likelier contenders. |

Galway specialist with all three wins having come at the track; back-to-back winner over hurdles and fences here last term at 2m and 2m6f on soft and good to yielding; well beaten in two starts in May in Punchestown and Ballinrobe; he's up 12lb since his chase win last season, but he loves this place. |

All five wins have come over hurdles but has managed useful form in defeat over fences this term; finished in front of his shorter-priced stablemate Ricky Langford (also runs here) when second at Killarney in October; tongue-tie tried when unplaced over C&D, left off now. |

Hurdle winner on heavy ground the season before last; 0-6 chasing, fair level of form at 2m without looking progressive; none too fluent on seasonal debut at Down Royal last month; jumping again ragged when stepped up in trip at Fairyhouse, well beaten when falling at the last. |

Sole win over hurdles came in 2022; some fine runs in defeat over fences since including a close third in this race in 2023; has been missing since February 2024 but has been given a chance by the handicapper; market strength could indicate his readiness. |
