Bumper winner in 2023 ran his best race over hurdles when second at Fairyhouse in November having returned after an absence; some decent runs since but was poor back at the same track last time and has to return to best.

Bumper winner and second on hurdling debut in 2023; has come back from a two-year layoff; good second to 114-rated rival in a 2m maiden at this venue, fell here next start; fourth in a Limerick novice face last time; would get 12lb from He Can't Dance in a handicap.

Bumper winner ran a blinder to finish a 1.75l second of 16 in a maiden hurdle over C&D (sft-hvy) 25 days ago; sets the standard with a rating of 114 but may be vulnerable to less exposed rivals.
