0-6 in points and 0-7 over hurdles before he got off the mark in a Tipperary handicap (3m, good to yielding) in May last time; cheekpieces get the call-up but he's made serious advances on last two outings and would be set for a bold show granted further improvement.

Form & Verdict
Won on soft at Kelso in January but there was only one echo of that in his three starts since; tongue-tie (last applied five starts ago) returns and blinkers replace his usual cheekpieces; most notably he is back from chasing to hurdling for first time since March 2021.

Smart chaser for Willie Mullins; nothing like as good on recent starts but way down the weights, latest outing was his best for new yard and the 2m1f here that day was probably inadequate for him; first race away from fences since 2021 but he needs a second look.
