Runner up in a Tipperary maiden hurdle in May (2m1f, gd-yld) but has struggled in four handicap starts since; rated just 96 and looks to be up against it on these terms. |

Hasn't built on promise of 2m1f Tipperary maiden second in handicaps at Listowel and at Sligo on latest; dropped another 2lb and ought to be capable of better at some point. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 194y |
11st 11lb |
Won a beginners' at Tramore on chase debut on his penultimate start but it was a low-key run when sent off favourite for a handicap hurdle at Wexford last week; workable mark if he can bounce back (went close off mark of 100 last summer) and return to this sort of trip will probably help. |

Hurdles win came in 2m Roscommon 4yo maiden on good, twice runner-up in handicaps at same trip last summer; winning chasing debut at Tramore in May and rated an 8lb superior chaser on that run so has to be respected back hurdling. |

Shown very little at huge prices in three runs so far and has been off 133 days ahead of his handicap debut here; pedigree suggests return to further may suit on handicap debut and worth a market check; wears first-time cheekpieces and tongue-tie. |

Mayo contender was a revelation for his new trainer last year; won three hurdles on decent ground here, latest over 3m1f; showed nothing in Flat maidens as a youngster, but he's a different model nowadays and could be very well in; has won off similar layoff. |
