Back from a 291-day break. Finished off last campaign when fourth in a Listed steeplechase (4400m) at Auteuil, beaten 16 lengths. Has switched to the Martin Brassil yard. Sure to make presence felt.

Was very good when returning from a 293-day layoff most recently, finishing 2.75 lengths back in third on the flat at Dundalk All Weather over 2414m. Holds big claims.

Struggled in the G1 Hatton's Grace Hurdle (4023m) at Fairyhouse last time out. No surprise to see him back to form today down sharply in grade.

Returns for a new yard today. Last seen finishing 13th of 19 runners at Royal Ascot in June 2023 over 4023m. Will need this run.

Returns from a spell. Last raced nine months ago when he failed to finish the race in the G1 William Hill Champion Chase (3319m) at this track. Ideally placed to find the winner's stall.

Came down two starts back. Turned things around last time and clocked-in third, beaten 18 lengths, in a hurdle (4425m) at Clonmel. Won't find this easy.

Finished ninth when fresh from a spell last start in Listed level (4023m) at Naas, with today's rider Mark Walsh piloting. Leading contender and can find winning form.

Resumed from a spell with a disappointing sixth in a steeplechase (3218m) at Gowran Park. Fitter and can do much better. Might be worth another try.
