Form & Verdict

Classy Flat performer went close on his second hurdling start at Tramore (16.5f, good); off the mark by a head in a Worcester novice four weeks ago; could be on a nice mark for handicap debut but well-beaten on the level in three soft ground starts; underfoot conditions have to rate a big worry.

Useful on the Flat for Saeed Bin Suroor and, after a long layoff, his two runs under Paddy Hanlon over hurdles last month (second at Tramore last time) mean he brings the best form in this sphere.

Form & Verdict

Last year's winner returns to defend his crown off a 3lb higher mark; only run since came a month ago at Killarney and that was surely a prep run for a repeat bid in this; slight concern that he goes without his usual hood but he has less questions to answer than quite a few of these.
