Needs to jump better than in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle last month; however, in the circumstances that staying-on 22l 11th of 14 was a pretty positive run in the context of him now being in a handicap and up in trip; could be sharper since that first start in four months and he won a Cheltenham Grade 2 novice (2m, good) last November; won on soft on Flat; interesting.

Gained a first win since his juvenile days in a Bellewstown handicap in September and hasn't been beaten far in either subsequent start including C&D two weeks ago; has a much better draw this time and he's on a fair mark.

Gained first win since his 2yo campaign at Bellewstown last month and a good run in defeat at Thurles since; needs more to defy this mark and widest draw is far from ideal.
