Smart hurdler and an even better novice chaser last term when stamina at a premium, winning Grade 2 National Hunt Chase at Cheltenham and bettering that when third behind much more experienced rivals in 3m1f Grade 1 Aintree Bowl; could develop into a Gold Cup contender given further progress this season and good starting point here.

6l runner-up in Grade 1 novice chase at Leopardstown (3m, soft) in December and showed improved form in a first-time hood (retained) when bolting up in Grade 2 NH Chase at last month's Cheltenham Festival (3m6f, heavy); faces much tougher opposition now out of novice company but he was certainly impressive last time and it remains to be seen where his limitations lie.

Won Grade 2 novice hurdle at Navan last February; every chance when running out at the last in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham; made a low-key chasing debut at Naas when only third behind Grangeclare West; more professional when scoring at this venue, before again finding Grangeclare West too good in Grade 1 Leopardstown event; ideal opportunity here.
