13th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Three-time point winner who ran to fairly useful level when placed on first two hurdling starts, latterly when very close second here (2m5f, soft) in December; slightly disappointing after racing too freely in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) at Down Royal (2m4f, soft) on Boxing Day but still a leading contender. |

Won a mares' handicap hurdle at Punchestown (2m7f) and a 9l runner-up at Leopardstown over 2m4f last time; given a 1lb rise but this longer trip will suit and can go well. |

Record of 1-9 over hurdles but has been consistent enough in handicaps, mostly on easier ground; has 10l to find with Warm In Gorey from his chasing debut at Wexford but will have improved from then; yard in great form and a player. |

Won a Cork handicap hurdle over 2m in November; solid runs in defeat over 2m4f at Punchestown in January and Gowran in February; 2m6f trip proved too far for him at Down Royal; this is more suitable for chase bow. |
