3-15 over hurdles, all on soft; landed 2m4f mares' handicap at this course over Christmas; 6lb higher now and was tailed off at Naas in February; hard to fancy on this ground and looks stable second string. |

3-14 over timber; landed a mares' handicap over 2m4f at Limerick over Christmas; up 7lb for that win and she handles heavy ground but she has to prove she stays this far; claims if she does. |

Both hurdle wins came over 2m, the latest at Downpatrick in the summer of 2023; regressive since and tried at a range of trips; fell early at Gowran in February; much to prove. |

Off the mark over fences on latest at Down Royal (3m2f, good) off 113; up 7lb for that and this is a much tougher race; not fully discounted but a career best will be required to win in this company. |

Good win at Limerick in a handicap hurdle at Limerick in April (2m5f, good); prior to that ran well in a valuable handicap chase at the DRF when finishing third from mark of 126 (2m1f, good); dropped 2lb after running close to his best when fourth last time at Ballinrobe; chance. |

Better hurdler (2-24, placed ten times) than chaser (0-11, placed twice); strong in the betting when runner-up twice over hurdles at Ballinrobe last summer; good third here in December; ground versatile; leading contender for local yard. |

Nine-race maiden produced his best handicap run on penultimate start at Limerick (2m6f, good) when third of 8 off 97; didn't back that up at Cork on latest so needs to step forward to play a major role here. |

Won mares' maiden hurdle at Tipperary (2m1f, yielding) last May; handicap runs over various trips not entirely convincing but fine seventh of 20 at Cork over 2m4f off 99 three weeks ago; enters the discussion. |
