Decent runs in defeat over autumn/winter, finishing fourth here (3m1f, good to yielding) and third at Punchestown (3m, heavy); less than fluent jumping at Musselburgh when fifth in February (3m, good to soft); stayed on for a distant third at Clonmel last time (3m, heavy); not out of it and this better ground may help.

Unplaced at Musselburgh last time; place chance on his previous third to today's rival Milanaway over this trip at Punchestown; blinkered for the first time.

Irish maiden who has shown positive signs since wearing cheekpieces, making the frame over 3m at Down Royal and Punchestown; may take another step forward in the retained headgear; interesting.

Yet to score over hurdles but bounced back from two poor efforts to finish a respectable fourth at Down Royal over this trip last time; the cheekpieces worn then are retained; chance with a repeat.

Maiden pulled up on latest two attempts over contrasting trips; cheekpieces tried but of limited appeal.
