Couple of Tipperary wins last summer included 2m7f handicap chase; both recent comeback runs over hurdles over shorter so entitled to come on for those; doesn't want it soft though.

Returned from his break over hurdles and appreciated the return to fences when an emphatic winner at Killarney (2m5f, yielding); handicapper didn't hold back with a 9lb rise but this 8yo might be improving (now 3-7 as a chaser).

Touched off over this C&D on penultimate start off a mark of 103 and just 2lb higher now; that run followed successive wins at Tipperary at 3m over hurdles and 2m7f over fences off 97 and 100 respectively; back from 332 days off with midfield finish at Tipperary; should improve for that comeback and usual tongue-tie back on.

Front-running mare has been in fine form, four wins included 2m4f hurdle win here; handicapper seems to have her measure hurdling but scope remains off chase mark, recent Killarney third was a solid run; 4lb wrong here but can't be ruled out, especially if getting a soft lead.
