11st 7lb

J: J J Slevin

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Irish 7yo whose broadly progressive form switched to chasing this season features a comfortable win at Roscommon (sole attempt over 3m1f; good) in the summer and good second in Thurles handicap (2m5f, yielding) last time; still reasonably unexposed and looks interesting back up in distance.

J: Danny Mullins

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Winning pointer and twice successful over hurdles for Pat Doyle; took third behind subsequent Galway Plate winner Western Fold on chasing debut before comfortably justifying favouritism next time at Roscommon (3m1f, good); made stable debut back from a break in a five-runner novice event at Fairyhouse last time when a distant fourth (2m5f, soft); shaped as though he would come on for the run that day.

The winner of a bumper and two minor hurdles; running well when falling in a Grade 3 at Cork and was flying too high next time in a Punchestown Grade 1 (3m); remains relatively unexposed ahead of this chase debut.

Maiden and novice hurdle winner for Willie Mullins in 2024; lost way for that stable and pulled up in a Thurles handicap chase on debut for this yard in December, his fourth non-completion in six starts; new headgear combination tried.

J: Brian Hayes

T: W P Mullins

Rated 130 over hurdles; never remotely dangerous when third on chase debut and was towards the rear when unseating four out at Galway (2m6f, good; first-time tongue-tie; 25-1); others appeal more, including stablemate Uncle Pat who was a lot shorter in the betting than him at Galway.

Surely flattered to some extent when beaten under 7l behind the high-class Croke Park in Fairyhouse beginners' chase in November and hasn't progressed from there; others preferred.

Lightly raced 7yo from top yard and posted a useful RPR of 123 in winning a 2m6f maiden hurdle at Listowel when last seen in September (good ground); looks the type to make a better chaser and commands respect.
