£145,000 buy after winning an Irish maiden point (soft) in November 2022; 11-8 favourite when comfortably winning a seven-runner bumper at Ffos Las (2m, good) in March, so he looks a novice hurdler of notable promise.

All three starts were in bumpers on good to soft; disappointing on second start but he left a very favourable impression either side of that with his wins at Chepstow and Hereford; that's very similar form to Southoftheborder; one to note switched to hurdling.

Out of half-sister to Grade 1-winning staying hurdler Paddy's Return; seemingly unfancied for debut here in November (good to soft) but came from off the pace to win in good style under Finn Lambert (claiming 7lb then); that form was nothing special but he did look promising and yard won this in 2021 with one who had made a winning debut.

Irish maiden point winner who fetched £200,000 in April 2022; showed ability at Kempton (2m, good) this year in a bumper in February and a novice hurdle in May; runner-up in the latter and that's the best hurdles form in this line-up but he also has bumper winners to contend with.

Only fifth of seven in bumper at Ludlow (2m, good) in October, never able to get in a blow, but he was the 13-8 favourite so was presumably thought capable of much better; hooded that day but not this time.
