9st 10lb |
Made the breakthrough when landing a Leopardstown 1m handicap in April (good) off 49; ran to a similar level at Cork later in the month when beaten 3l into fourth; disappointing effort over 1m1f at Leopardstown last time when beaten 12.5l, but soft ground a possible excuse; Keane back aboard now. |

Sole win came on eighth run when landing a mile handicap at this course in April (good), beating Cleopatra's Needle by 0.75l; ran to a similar level at Cork 48 days ago when beaten 3l into fourth; 7lb rise seemed to anchor him that day but another good run can be expected dropped 1lb. |

C&D winner two years ago and couple of hurdle wins since, including at last year's Galway festival; excellent comeback run when second at Leopardstown in April (1m), most recently chased home an easy winner over this trip at Down Royal last month on soft; one to consider. |

Heavily-raced gelding; gained a tenth career win at Dundalk in April and seems to be holding his form well; 3l second at the Curragh and a fair fifth at Bellewstown 13 days ago; 0-11 record at this venue is a negative, placed three times. |

Trainer's four-timer last weekend makes this 1m1f winner of interest; narrowly beaten over 1m3f here in September, too, and some decent runs hurdling during the winter; nice run over 1m at Leopardstown but unplaced at Navan since; tongue-tie left off; doubt she wants it too fast. |

Winner this year over shorter at Dundalk and Fairyhouse and better again over 1m1f at Leopardstown six days ago when beaten a neck off this mark in 22-runner contest, having had every chance; not at best on only previous attempt at this longer trip so bit to prove. |
