Winning hurdler over 2m4f on heavy for Gavin Cromwell last season; pick of five attempts chasing when outstayed late on by a well-handicapped rival in 2m7f Limerick handicap at Christmas (soft-to-heavy); not so good following month at Navan and given a break since; ground likely on the quick side.

Hurdles form is undeniably weak, and he failed to run to meet expectations as joint-favourite when fifth in a 2m4f handicap at this venue last month; however, he bolted up when tackling this trip on his chase debut at Navan nine day later; will be hard to beat if that improvement is sustained.
