14yo veteran won on return from six months off at Down Royal (3m2f, good) in April; not as good twice since including on latest over C&D; needs more off this mark. |

This 14yo retains plenty of enthusiasm and after going up 7lb for his win at Down Royal (3m2f, good) he stuck to his guns to make the frame there a month ago; has won here over hurdles and should go well again. |

Dual-purpose maiden; 0-9 over hurdles; didn't get the clearest of runs when a 7.25l third of 15 at Sligo last time out; ran well over this C&D a year ago when a 1l second of 16 off 5lb lower; rain would be a worry, chance if it misses. |
