Won four of 11 starts over hurdles including a Pertemps qualifier at Leopardstown last Christmas; down the field in the Final at Cheltenham; staying type, should make a useful chaser in time. |

Barely sighted when only 8-1 for the Pertemps Final but had won four of his previous seven over hurdles including a qualifier for that race at Leopardstown; finds himself 10lb higher but likely that he has more in the locker. |

Bumper winner failed to get his head in front over hurdles (0-8, rated 117); lacks chasing experience and probably best watched on his first start over fences after a 248 day absence. |

Three-time winner over hurdles, the latest at Clonmel last November off 3lb lower (3m, soft); pulled up on latest but has run well here before so could rebound; place shout. |

Won at Clonmel in November off 3lb lower; bounced back to form after three poor runs with a 5l third of 10 over C&D 17 days ago (1.5l behind Toor Khov); not guaranteed to back that effort up but place claims at least if he does. |

Has won twice this season, both at this venue; scored over C&D (yielding to soft) in March off 18lb lower; went in again over 2m2f here a month ago; raised 7lb for that and has never won off a mark this high but can't be discounted in current form. |

Two hurdle wins arrived in 2024 on heavy ground; beaten 27l over fences at Clonmel (2m7f, soft) in April, but he was only 2l down when falling at the second last hurdle here (2m4f, soft to heavy) later that month; 3lb wrong. |

Gained back-to-back wins in May, easily over fences at Limerick (2m7f, good, OR 77) and hurdles at Tramore (2m6f, good, OR 75); disappointed off his new mark in a 3m1f chase here 13 days ago when last of four and tailed off in the four-runner field; needs to bounce back. |
