Dual hurdle winner was just denied in a Naas handicap two starts back; then ran a solid race in the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham; looks the yard's first-string but needs more.

Second here (on good) early as novice but tailed off in the Martin Pipe last March; better over this sort of trip and surged back to form when a close second to Melbourne Shamrock in the Naas qualifier (2m7f, heavy) 18 days ago in a second-time visor, staying on strongly from off pace; requires better to justify this British mark but needs a second look for trainer who's done well in this race.

Two wins last term on good ground included 2m6f Thurles novice; never sighted on Fairyhouse comeback but did fare a bit better early this month at DRF on unsuitably heavy ground; ground concerns remain.

Two wins last term on good ground included 2m6f Thurles novice; never sighted on recent comeback run over this trip at Fairyhouse and now tried visored; ground concerns and doesn't appear one of the more obvious Elliott contenders.

One of two for trainer; winner of sole point posted some solid efforts over hurdles last season, including two wins; tailed off in Martin Pipe; made seasonal return in a Galway festival beginners' chase when stable second-string and finished ninth of 16; back over hurdles now and is a player if bringing his best, but Kennedy prefers Find A Fortune.
