Hurdle/chase winner for Gavin Cromwell before losing his way; some signs of a revival when fourth at Downpatrick (2m3f) and he's slipped to a handy mark. |

Won twice over hurdles and once over fences for Gavin Cromwell before losing his form last year; has continued his regression for this yard and is hard to fancy on his poor Kilbeggan comeback run. |

Dual winning chaser is rated 8lb lower over hurdles but is 0-14; this ground suits but may need this run to warm up for a summer campaign. |

Gained a deserved second chase win off 4lb lower at Sligo early last month (3m2f, gd-yld), his second win at that track; previously ran well on soft at Ballinrobe (2m7f); in fine fettle and should be in the mix again. |

Came good at fourth attempt when taking Kildorrery maiden in March under a positive ride (second and third have won since); failed to make much impact at Cork in his first hunters' chase; probably capable of better. |

Goes well at about this trip around here, as he reminded us when getting up on the line last month; it's been a while since he was this high in the weights but has to be considered. |

Belatedly off the mark at Thurles in February in an amateur handicap chase (soft to heavy), winning going away on only his third run over fences; reverts to hurdles after pulled up at Limerick last time and record of 0-21 is off-putting. |

Both chase wins have been over further and hasn't won in over two years; impossible task at weights in veterans' handicap at this course when last seen but still hard to make a case for. |
