Classy sort who is 2-7 over fences and ran as well as he was entitled to behind Energumene in a Grade 2 at Fairyhouse last month; his second to Impaire Et Passe in February was bordering on a career best and he's Kennedy's pick from three stablemates.

Form & Verdict

Form & Verdict
Ran in two strong beginners' chases; jumping was ragged when tailed off fourth of five behind Fact To File at Leopardstown; fell four out at this venue on handicap debut; made mistakes and was pulled up when 20-1 in a valuable novice handicap at the Punchestown festival; jumping issues need to be resolved.

Hurdles winner is 0-7 chasing, having failed to complete on three of those; still not a fluent jumper although penultimate Fairyhouse effort was a solid one; hard to be confident in.

Only chase win came in a beginners' event early last season; consistent in races of a lower standard than this, placed on last three starts; 7lb claimed in a bid to counter the effect of being 8lb out of the handicap.

Irish challenger; 3lb out of the weights and over two years since he last won (overall strike-rate of 2-33); however, good second at Wexford on his return from a break and he's one who won't mind what the weather does.
