Somehow, the veteran has found top form at the ripe age of 13, three wins over the summer include at Tramore and most recently over 3m2f at Kilbeggan a week ago, winning handily; up 7lb for latest but in the form of his life and has to enter calculations.

Modest strike rate of 2-22 over fences but was on a real going day over C&D last time, blowing the field apart by 15l (good to yielding); up 9lb for that, but if he's in the same form he has a huge chance; overall record suggests that's no sure thing though.
