Form of his debut bumper win has worked out well but disappointing since; beaten favourite in a Cheltenham November bumper when third and weakened tamely at Leopardstown; hurdles didn't spark a return to form at Down Royal last time; big chance if back to form of bumper win, but that's a big if.

Impressed on goodish ground in winning his point and a Punchestown bumper (form has worked out well); beaten favourite both starts since, decent run at Cheltenham but weakened tamely at Leopardstown over Christmas; now switches to hurdles and has to be respected.

Impressed on goodish ground in winning his point and a Punchestown bumper (form has worked out well); failed to justify favouritism in a Listed race at Cheltenham where his speed was perhaps blunted by the soft ground; could easily be seen to better effect today and much respected.

Point winner (3m, good to yielding) who made it 2-2 on bumper debut in a big field at the Punchestown festival (2m, good to yielding) in April; the Punchestown form reads well and he holds leading claims today.
