Half-brother to 2m2f/2m4f hurdle winner She's Commanche justified favouritism in fine style on debut in Galway maiden in late October, jumping well and readily drawing away run-in; form is ordinary but manner of his victory was impressive and 4yo has plenty of scope so looks an exciting prospect. |

Experienced maiden has posted several solid efforts in handicaps, notably close second when last-flight faller at Sligo and staying-on third over 2m at Listowel; reportedly hung left at latter venue five days later when not as effective over 2m4f on softer ground; back in maiden company with definite chance in what looks a weak contest.

Improving gelding has won two of his last three starts; scored off 89 at Kilbeggan over 24.5f and added another handicap hurdle off 95 at Wexford last week over 3m, both on good to yielding; up another 6lb and could be more to come but drop back in trip a concern. |

Still involved when coming down 2 out on his penultimate start at Fairyhouse in January and gained compensation when justifying short odds back at that venue in February; good value for the winning margin when getting the better of Solly Attwell and both an 8lb rise and slightly shorter trip probably both fine. |
