Career best performance came on penultimate start when winning a Naas handicap hurdle (2m3f, good-yielding); raised 7lb and ran very poorly at this track last time; hard to depend on and form of his win hasn't worked out; a top rider aboard. |

Appreciated getting back on a sound surface when recording a career best at Naas earlier this month; 7lb higher and his Naas form hasn't been done any favours so may need another career best. |

Bred to make a chaser and he got off the mark in this sphere in a Cork novice (17.5f, good) latest, although his jumping needs to improve; sheer determination got him up to win but he won't get away with such mistakes on his handicap debut over fences. |

Promise in bumpers last year on decent ground; much more testing conditions in first three hurdle runs last season possibly did not suit; close up in third when favourite at Down Royal in his second handicap; likely contender over this longer trip. |

Dual-purpose mare has won eight races across both codes; made a pleasing enough start for this yard when third of six at Ballinrobe on first run for over six months; should come on for that but she remains 6lb above her last win and she won't want it too soft. |
