didn't always jump with fluency, raced lazily at times, in touch with leaders, towards rear after 8th, dropped to last 10th, headway before 4 out, pecked on landing 3 out, went third before last, kept on

Two wins over hurdles but disappointing over fences, including in a trio of handicaps early in the year; off since March and probably best watched on this occasion.

Two wins over hurdles, over 2m4f and 2m7f early last year, both at Punchestown; ran well enough on chasing debut at Fairyhouse; two disappointing handicap displays so far, but possible excuse in both cases; premature to write off and Mark Walsh sticks with him.

T: Patrick T Foley

Two wins over hurdles, over 2m4f and 2m7f early last year, both at Punchestown; ran well enough on chasing debut over C&D; failed to make much impression in two starts over shorter; interference at the first fence may have harmed his chance on his handicap debut at Naas; third-favourite then, run looked too bad to be true.
