Two-time winning hurdler is 0-5 in chases and rated 121; fine effort when a 1l second to Ashdale Flyer at Wexford in August but soundly beaten both chase starts since; a bit to prove for now.

Suited by this trip but has been out of form over fences; hard to be confident in a race like this against that background.

Dual hurdle winner was runner-up in a Wexford beginners in August but was poor in a Cheltenham handicap since and has to rebound.

In front when falling four out at Wexford in July on second chase start and a final-fence blunder proved costly when second there in August last time; could do with cutting out the mistakes but the first-time cheekpieces may help in that regard; one of two for last year's winning Irish yard.

Two hurdle wins for John McConnell at 2m4f; out of form last season; some promise when fourth on his stable/chasing debut at Kilbeggan, 3 1/2l behind today's rival Harsh; made a mistake at the last then; fell in the lead four out over C&D two weeks ago.
