Four-time chase winner; veteran who was returning from a lengthy break when only 2l away at Limerick (2m6f, good) but this ground could be softer than he cares for. |

Goes well at about this trip around here, as he reminded us when getting up on the line last month; it's been a while since he was this high in the weights but has to be considered. |

11st 7lb |
0-12 under all codes when based in Ireland and ran very poorly in a chase on last month's stable debut; reverts to hurdling with first-time visor fitted; will be suited by the trip/ground here but has more to prove than all his rivals. |

0-12 under all codes when based in Ireland; battled on well to snatch modest third of 15 at Wexford (3m1f, good) last month and is still unexposed over fences but others have more pressing claims here; blinkers removed for this stable debut. |

Third of five finishers in a similar race to this her last May; modest form in handicap chases last summer; has won both starts since returning to points (overall record, 4-11); in between, not disgraced when around 20l fourth behind the smart Cons Roc in a hunter chase at Fairyhouse. |

1-25 strike-rate; runner-up to Burgundy Man over C&D (soft) last October; underwhelming in two starts this year, beaten 47l at Downpatrick (3m, good) 19 days ago; blinkers are now added. |

Bounced back to form when adding a fourth chase win at Punchestown in June (3m1f, good to yielding); another good run at Cartmel last time when beaten a neck; reverts to hurdles now off a much lower mark, but hasn't been able to take advantage of it in the past; 2lb wrong. |

None too consistent but he was back over fences at Punchestown 20 days ago (3m1f, good to yielding) and ran on well to prevail in a big field; that was his fourth success as a chaser and big shout if he can hold his form. |

Eleven-race maiden is 0-4 in chases; his 3.25l third at Sligo (3m2f, good) won by Ballagh Star in October is a standout effort; 3lb lower now but he finished a long way behind at Wexford last time. |
