Form & Verdict
Point winner cost a fair few quid and got an initial mark of 116 after showing plenty of promise in first two starts over hurdles in late 2022; hasn't been plain sailing since; odds-on when second at Thurles in February and well beaten in big-field maiden at Punchestown; still merits respect in maiden of this standard.

Jumps and travels well but is a weak finisher with a good few seconds to his name; positive is that his sole chase win came after four months off and ground will suit, but seems best right-handed.

Nice pedigree and had fair winter form, notably a fourth at Down Royal over Christmas; had a couple of blips before finishing fourth when favourite here last month; didn't quite see it out that day and coming back 3f in trip may help.
