11st 5lb |
Two wins have been over shorter; on the retreat when a faller two out over this trip in Down Royal contest won by Topgun Simmy on latest, second run after a long absence; needs to improve and stamina still unproven. |

One of two for yard; gained second win over hurdles when scoring off 120 in a handicap at Tipperary in July (20.5f, yielding); pulled up in first run since at Fairyhouse on testing ground last month after a 291 day absence; may have needed that and the return to a sounder surface is a plus; this trip should be fine; chance. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Poor strike-rate and both wins were in Ireland; mostly consistent in small-field chases this season and the return of blinkers is a probable plus after trying a visor last time; has been running over shorter but stays this far; versatile ground-wise. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |

Yet to add to his two Irish hurdle wins in 2021 but consistent in small-field chases this season, with best run arguably his second of five at Uttoxeter (2m, good) two starts ago; swaps usual blinkers for first-time visor; will probably be on the premises again. |

Won a Wexford handicap hurdle (3m, yielding) off 114 in April, his first win over timber in over four years; has failed to figure off his revised mark in two runs since; was a Grade 2 winner in his pomp for Nigel Twiston-Davies but that was a long time ago; would probably prefer softer ground and others are more likely. |
