Godolphin cast off left previous hurdling form behind when landing a Cork maiden in May (17.5f, good), earning a rating of 117; unseated on the Flat at Leopardstown on only start since; a bit to find on the figures but will like the ground and not dismissed. |

Bought for £27,000 off Godolphin for whom he won a 1m4f AW novice last year; tailed off on handicap debut at Gowran in April but came good in a maiden hurdle at Cork and now might tap back into that promise he showed for former connections; tongue-tie added. |

107-rated hurdler won a maiden in that sphere last summer; ordinary enough Flat form and doubt dropping back from last two runs over 1m4f will be the answer. |

Won 4yo maiden hurdle at Punchestown last June on good ground; placed in novice events at Bellewstown and Galway; failed to sustain that form in two outings before being left off in the autumn; Flat win over 1m4f came after a lengthy break, so could go well here. |

Won 4yo maiden hurdle at Punchestown in June (16.5f, good); made a race of it with the hugely promising Davy Crockett on penultimate at Galway; disappointing run on handicap debut at Ballinrobe (18.5f) on latest; not sure this step up in trip will suit. |
