11st 11lb |
Highly creditable third behind Ndaawi here 12 months ago before winning a big 2m handicap at Listowel; faced a straightforward task in a three-runner contest at Down Royal before running well up to the point of his fall at the last in the 2m4f Hatton's Grace; fair third behind Lossiemouth at Leopardstown's Christmas meeting; 14lb higher than last year. |

Good bit of experience for a 5yo, including Galway Hurdle third and on last month's return from a break when scoring for third time over timber with career-best in valuable 2m Listowel handicap under a positive ride; likely major threat to same owner's The Yellow Clay with possible race-fitness edge and getting 8lb. |

British raider; dual Grade 3 bumper winner in France; won two of first four starts over hurdles for this yard but a bad mistake two out proved costly when pulled up on handicap debut at Kelso latest; could go well if puts in a clear round of jumping. |

Flat maiden winner was a smart juvenile hurdler last season, winning a Grade 3, but was below form in cheekpieces at Punchestown; beaten a long way in a Flat handicap at the Curragh since; however, has a chance if his jumping holds up on chasing bow. |

Took runner-up spot at Kilbeggan on second hurdle start (2m1f, yielding) and caught the eye of the stewarsd at last year's festival here ; tailed off at Naas in November and pulled up at Cork (2m4f, soft to heavy) on handicap bow; this is weak, so she's in the mix, but others preferred. |

Shed his maiden tag at Wexford in May when winning a 3m handicap hurdle off 87 (good to yielding); way below that level on his handicap chase bow at Killarney (2m7f, good to yielding) last time when tailed off; stable has hit form in the meantime and blinkers go on so he might be worth another go as he had run with credit in his two beginners'. |

Lightly raced 5yo was who runner-up in his final handicap over hurdles (2m1f; 2lb lower); sent off favourite for chase debut off this mark at Downpatrick and ran okay to be beaten 13l into third having jumped deliberately; if sharper for that experience he can go well. |
