Four wins up to 7.5f and in varying ground conditions; was beaten a long way on return over 6f at the Curragh in March; can do a lot better today but others preferred.

Fine campaign last season included wins at Naas (6f, gd-yld) and Leopardstown (7.5f, good); excellent run off this mark in 1m premier handicap here (good) in June; below best when last seen at Galway in August; handles softer ground and could go well if he's fit.

J: Nicola Burns

T: Gerard O’Leary

Has done really well since joining current trainer this year, winning at Naas and Leopardstown (beating Fort Vega) and good second in Curragh premier handicap; fast ground may not have suited last time; cheekpieces now tried and rider's claim a positive.

J: Shane Foley

Winner of two recent starts at 6f/7.5f; 0.75l second behind Slieve Binnian at the Curragh last time (1m, good); didn't get a clear run that day and ran on late; raised 3lb but he looks a big player.

J: Dylan Browne McMonagle

T: Gerard O’Leary

Two wins for Richard Hannon and has won his last two starts for his new stable; a neck winner at Naas (6f, good to yielding) before following up at Leopardstown (7f, good); raised 6lb but the 1m trip may bring improvement; big chance.
