Useful hurdler who looked as good as ever when scoring by over 5l here (3m1f, good) last month; will be fine over today's shorter trip and appears to have been found a simple task on his chasing debut. |

Productive spell last year featured two wins at Cheltenham; well beaten there the last twice, continuing his regression in 2025; needs a big turnaround. |

11st 10lb |
9yo front-runner who has been better than ever and admirably consistent here this term (on ground ranging from good through to soft), going close behind Lucky Place in the 2m4f Relkeel Hurdle before winning Grade 2 Cleeve over today's C&D; however, he has something to find in this company. |

Can make the running and acts on soft; second at Cheltenham on all four starts this term, in 3m handicaps first three occasions and a 2m4f Grade 2 on latest; that's career-best form, which does not put him top of the ratings in this but he looks sure to be seriously involved. |

Made all to gain first chase win in a Fairyhouse novice (2m6f, soft) in January; well-beaten sole start since in the Irish Grand National; form figures of 321 at this venue over hurdles; could go well back at a track he likes. |

Usually ridden over hurdles by Jack Gilligan; won a maiden and three handicaps this year over hurdles, latterly when getting up in the final strides over 2m7f at Killarney (good) in July despite hanging left; unraced beyond that but he rallied well for an always-prominent second at Galway (2m6f) three weeks ago, again shaping as if well worth a go at 3m. |

Ran well in two of his four handicap hurdles last term; has contested five chases since June, getting the hang of it the last twice and winning at Wetherby (3m, good) latest; 9lb higher on this return to hurdles but one to consider. |

Well handicapped on last season's hurdling form; well beaten on first three chase starts and there's a slight doubt about his stamina today, but he took a big step in the right direction when going close at Ludlow (2m4f, good) last time and could play a leading role if seeing out the trip. |

Best form at about 3m and very capable on his day; has won on this track but also pulled up in three of five course starts, most recently in May, and he completed in his own time on his only subsequent chase start; overall record shows he's a long way from being a punter's pal. |

Good ground suits but he's not the easiest to predict at the best of times and has run badly in all three races since his chase win at Aintree (3m1f, good) last May; had a second wind operation before penultimate start and was back hurdling for latest; well treated on best form but the chances of his reproducing it seem to be receding. |

Far from solid judged on bare form this term, albeit had a physical excuse (found to have an irregular heartbeat) last time; this five-time hurdles scorer drops back in grade and is competitively treated provided he stages a revival. |
