Seven-time winner over hurdles and fences; won a Listed handicap chase over 2m1f at Fairyhouse in November, but it's been mostly downhill since; showed a spark over hurdles at Kilbeggan last time; 3lb wrong here. |

Has a record of 1-29 over hurdles and has been mostly below form this year so isn't easy to fancy. |

Only one win from 27 starts over hurdles, at Ballinrobe last year off 13lb higher (2m6f, good); badly out of form in four outings this season, three of them at this venue. |

11st 7lb |
Lost his form after gaining a first win at Naas in April last year off 107 (2m3f, good to yielding); switch of stable brought some mild promise at Clonmel last time when shaping as though that first run back could bring him forward. |

Won handicaps at Fairyhouse and Naas for Des McDonogh over a similar trip to this; lost his form after that latest score and has to return to best on debut for this yard. |

Dual-purpose; 1-15 over hurdles and rated 99; not many positives to glean from two starts over fences; others preferred. |

Hasn't taken to fences the last twice but those were after some underwhelming runs on the Flat and over hurdles; bit to prove right now. |

12st 0lb |
4lb lower than for his hurdle win at Thurles but that was in late 2021 and restricted to only five runs in the meantime; one of his four chase runs reads okay but doesn't look straightforward and can be taken on. |

12th Aug 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 165y |
11st 9lb |
Beat 15 rivals in a handicap hurdle at Thurles in late 2021 when 5lb lower; hasn't had much racing since then but was running well over fences when making a bad mistake on his return from an absence in April; poor last time in that same discipline but he's better than that. |

Won his handicap hurdle off 2lb higher; beaten 8l when behind some of these at Tramore but would have finished closer without a bad mistake at the last. |

23rd Aug 2024 Good 2m 2f 120y |
12st 0lb |
Maiden hurdle winner (soft) spent a period chasing before hurdles return 11 days ago when never sighted at Ballinrobe; entitled to come on for that but others preferred. |

Maiden hurdle winner; last three runs have been over fences and was running well when departing in the latest one at Tipperary that went to Galway Plate winner Pinkerton; now back hurdling and can win races off this mark. |

Maiden has been poor over hurdles and fences lately so isn't easy to make a case for. |

Second reserve; well beaten in two maiden hurdles and handicaps will suit better in time |
