No win since scoring off 2lb higher at Naas (1m, yielding) over two years ago; promising seasonal comeback second at Navan in March (1m2f) but 1m4f looked beyond her at Limerick last month; back to probably her optimum trip. |

Has done most of his winning on the Flat in Britain, and has found a new lease of life over hurdles at his local track last month, following up a good second in a 2m1f handicap hurdle in early July by getting up on the line to land a similar handicap over the same trip three weeks later; up 6lb for those two efforts is far from excessive and he can be thereabouts once more with the step up in trip unlikely to be an issue. |
