Form & Verdict
Respectable efforts in maidens from 2m3f to 2m6f and gives the impression that he's a thorough stayer, so 3m1f here might well bring him on some more; this looks a golden opportunity.

Third in remarkably strong point-to-point; strong stayer over hurdles and won 3m1f Punchestown contest on chasing debut; likes good ground and doubt he'll lack fitness despite four months off.

2-9 over hurdles and rated 129; shaped well before tiring late on in grade 3 handicap hurdle at Aintree (24.5f, gd-sft) after break on latest; sharper now and makes chase debut with yard in hot form; dam related to chase winners; could go well.

Readily made all in Kilbeggan maiden when upped to 3m1f in August and followed up on handicap debut at Roscommon (3m, good to yielding) in September; even better form in defeat later in the autumn, including fifth of 17 in a notably strong 3m Cheltenham handicap on good; returns from a four-month break as a 6yo who could easily have more to offer.

Shaped well at Wexford (2m5f) and Galway (2m6f), latterly behind the Ebor favourite Hipop De Loire; faces nothing of his calibre here and should have better days ahead of him.

Improved for this headgear combination when coming from off the pace to win over 2m6f at Galway; never-nearer second over 2m5f at Tramore, where market strength suggested connections felt he was still well treated, and useful 7lb claimer takes over now.

Much improved in first-time cheekpieces to land 2m6f handicap at recent Galway festival, coming off the pace to assert late on (good); 7lb rise seems fair and quite likely has more to offer.
