Back on his favoured good ground, he won well at Clonmel (2m) and a 5lb rise isn't the end of the world, having been competitive off this mark before. |

Took third at Naas in March (2m, soft to heavy) before lesser efforts at Cork and Kilbeggan; favourite at Sligo (2m2f, good) last time and ran better than her distant third suggests after she missed the start; not dismissed. |

Sole hurdles win came in 2m3f Limerick handicap last May on good; claimed out of Declan Queally's yard at Clonmel in May (4,000euros) and solid start for new connections when staying-on third in 2m4f Clonmel handicap last month; one to consider. |

Is 1-13 over hurdles with the win coming at Limerick last year off 6lb higher (2m3f, good); some decent runs in defeat in claiming hurdles here and at Tramore, when a 12l runner-up (2m1f, good to yielding); makes stable debut. |

Posted some okay efforts in maiden hurdles last summer; tailed off on handicap/stable debut in May, but much better at Clonmel when a 3.5l fourth (2m1f, good); shaped like a return to this sort of trip would suit better that day. |

0-10 and was pulled up at Wexford on stable debut in May (2m1f, good to yielding); ran one of her best races at Clonmel over an inadequate extended 2m trip (good) when a 4l fifth, keeping on; this return to further should suit and she has her chance if she can find some consistency. |
