11st 12lb |
Stakes class performer was a Listed winner over 10f at three; won 1m handicap here off 101 on seasonal reappearance in April and creditable efforts in defeat since including when beaten 5l in very valuable Ascot handicap last time; first try at 1m4f and would beat these rivals for speed if lasting home. |

Useful form in his two attempts at handicap level, winning 21-runner race at the Curragh (1m, good) in April and fifth of 18 at the Galway festival (8.5f, soft) last time out; goes well fresh; interesting. |

Finished fourth in the 2020 Irish St Leger but hasn't really gone on from that; won a Listowel conditions event last year but was below that level at the Curragh next time; found to have mucus in his trachea after a poor Dundalk run in February; blinkers tried. |

Close fourth in the 2020 Irish Leger; readily won a Listowel conditions contest last September; tried over hurdles twice this season, well beaten at Thurles last week and reverts back to the Flat here; class act of the race and very much the one to beat. |

Useful Flat performer for Jim Bolger, two wins and eight places, peak rating of 99 (89 currently); promise in two runs over hurdles; may have finished closer but for a bad mistake at the second-last at Fairyhouse in January; chased home effortless winner Kilcruit at Punchestown later that month. |

Smart Flat performer (peak RPR 103) and promise in two runs over hurdles so far; may have finished much closer without a bad mistake at the second last at Fairyhouse earlier this month and better ground would be in his favour too. |

Dual Flat winner for Ed Dunlop; well beaten in an extremely hot Leopardstown maiden hurdle last month but not disgraced at Navan the time before; needs this for a handicap mark. |

29th Dec 2021 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Two wins and four places from 15 Flat starts in Britain; best on AW, though ran respectably on Irish debut in a 1m4f conditions event at the Curragh in October; some merit on his hurdling debut at Navan but more likely one for handicaps in due course. |

Two wins and four places from 15 Flat starts in Britain, best on AW, though ran respectably on Irish debut in a 1m4f conditions event at the Curragh in October; could pay his way over hurdles, but this is a tough introduction. |

Has won three times at around 10f but not at his best the last twice when stepped up to this trip; has plenty to find on ratings but top jockey on board and cheekpieces tried; stable has better prospects with Barbados. |

11st 12lb |
A smart performer on the Flat (rated 99 currently, 107 at peak); runner-up in three of his four starts over hurdles; form of last month's Naas second was strongly advertised by the winner Highland Charge in a Grade 3 at the same venue last season; this looks an ideal opportunity |

27th Feb 2022 Soft 1m 7f 101y |

A smart performer on the Flat (rated 99) and has run to a similar level in a trio of starts over hurdles so far; shaped like he might need a step up in trip when beaten 12l in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle last month; respected but vulnerable if he fails to improve. |

Maiden under both codes, showing a little ability when modest fourth in 2m4f Down Royal handicap in March but tailed off last of 3 in 3m Ayr novices' latest when stiff task at weights; cheekpieces worn latest now discarded; needs to improve to play a role. |

Outran 50-1 odds when keeping on for modest fourth of 16 in low-grade Down Royal handicap (2m4f, soft) last month, his fourth start over hurdles, but a lot to find on the figures with his two rivals here; cheekpieces (worn once on the Flat in 2020) given another go today. |

29th Mar 2022 Good To Yielding 1m 5f 0y |

Ex-Godolphin and ran okay over hurdles at Down Royal last time; could be fairly enough treated on Flat if building on that effort. |
16/1 |
