Lightly raced 6yo showed definite ability in bumpers for Dermot McLoughlin, notably in decent Navan contest (soft-to-heavy); returned from over year's absence for current yard last month when hooded in 2m Clonmel maiden hurdle, staying on third behind an odds-on shot (soft); hood left off here but rates a major contender.

His second run back from an absence when breezing home at odds-on in a 2m soft-ground maiden at Tramore; he no doubt has plenty more to offer; this longer trip should be up his street.

Beaten favourite on racecourse bow when runner-up to Marlacoo at Down Royal May 2024; failed to build on that next time but fared better when beaten 7.5l into fifth at Navan 410 days ago in a good bumper won by Copacabana; first-time hood on hurdles debut and horses from this yard typically improve for obstacles.

Four Flat wins, the latest in a Dundalk AW claimer last month; two previous runs over hurdles were at Leopardstown, encouraging fourth in 2m maiden but well out of depth in Grade 1 novice at the DRF; drops in grade here, has to enter calculations.

Takes a sharp drop in class having contested a strong 1m6f handicap at the Curragh last week; had previously shown decent form in finishing second in maiden hurdles at Tramore and Killarney; suited by the race conditions, as he was when readily landing a race of this type at Dundalk in March.
