Likes decent ground; won over 3m1f at Wexford in July. good second over same trip at Kilbeggan; had a run over hurdles before giving a spirited performance to land the 3m4f Cork National; that was well deserved but he was all out to beat Positive Thinker who may reverse form on easier ground. |

Likes nice ground and won over 3m1f at Wexford in July; good second over same trip at Kilbeggan since and it was too soft over hurdles last time; could see him staying this trip on a sound surface and he's a player. |

Better chaser is maiden in this sphere; fair fourth to Doitforjane Sid at Killarney and gets nice pull at the weights; both chase wins came in sideburns so return of that headgear might help and he stays well. |

Former C&D winner won at Down Royal off a mark of 109 in May; below par at Roscommon off 5lb higher subsequently and then pulled up here two weeks ago; hard to fancy after that effort and may need to drop back down the weights. |
