9yo has won three of his last five; career best when winning easily at Limerick (3m, yielding to soft) on latest; 9lb higher here in a stronger race so he'll need to improve again but that's not impossible; due to go up another 1lb; not discounted. |

Improved for the switch to chasing; survived a mistake four out on his way to winning at Sligo in October (2m5f, good to yielding); not as good next time when fifth from 5lb higher at Thurles; needed the run on return last year. |

Sole win over hurdles came over C&D in 2023; some decent runs in defeat last year but has to bounce back from a poor Listowel effort. |

Sole win came over this sort of trip at Killarney in August 2023; running well in defeat from this sort of mark at the end of 2024 and may have needed this month's return at Tipperary; some rain would be in his favour. |

Sixteen-race maiden under Rules and 0-11 over hurdles; fifth off this mark last three starts, beaten 17l on latest at Sligo (20.5f, yielding); needs a bit more to win but she handles soft ground and has each way claims. |

6th Oct 2024 Good 2m 6f 180y |

Disputing the lead when falling at the last in a 2m handicap at Cork last November; decent effort in first-time cheekpieces at Navan (2m6f) on next start when fourth behind a progressive winner; respectable fifth in a 23-runner contest over 3m at Naas in April, despite untidy jumping; potentially interesting if fit and ready after a break |
