Good second at Cartmel (2m5f, good) on latest chase start in June and placed in big-field handicap hurdles on next two outings; below form when tried in cheekpieces (now removed) for latest hurdling start but has a significant role to play if all goes to plan here.

Chase winner gained first hurdle win when landing a late gamble at Tramore off 90 in November (2m5f, soft; form boosted); disappointed in follow-up bid but raced on the deepest ground by the rail which proved costly; worth another chance with Mikey Kenneally taking off a valuable 7lb.
