Ran away with Navan (2m, soft) maiden on second start for this yard last season and solid enough effort in Listed handicap at Fairyhouse afterwards; back from 10 months' absence when pulled up in 2m Naas handicap in February, having raced prominently to three out; better for that run but fair bit to find on ratings here.

Form & Verdict
Clonmel maiden hurdle winner in April last year (2m1f, good to yielding); ran solid races in handicap hurdles over the summer without winning; made no impact on the Flat at Leopardstown when last seen in October (1m2f, heavy); probably prefers better ground than this.

Dual-purpose; bolted up in Sligo maiden hurdle last month (2m2f, good); previously soundly beaten over this C&D (gd-yld), extending his Flat record to 0-11; 3lb lower now but others appeal more.

Decent form near the end of the season before last, winning a maiden hurdle at Clonmel and placed in a handicap at the Punchestown festival; fair form in handicaps last summer; subsequent form raises doubts.

Hurdle winner is a maiden on the Flat but has posted some fine runs; however, has been poor in both codes last two starts so needs a return to form.
