Was third in a valuable Fairyhouse restricted bumper on debut last year; lesser bumper run in January; belied inexperience to win on hurdles debut at Killarney over this trip; there should be more to come and is a big player.

Four-time Flat winner; useful maiden hurdle form including when a staying third in a 2m maiden hurdle at Galway last week; this trip should suit and he probably does not have to improve to land this.

Four Flat wins and is rated 89 in that sphere; was never involved in the Connacht Hotel handicap here five days ago; best hurdle run when second at Killarney last time, a mistake at the last costing him; should be in the mix.
