Failed to finish at his latest appearance in a 3319m hurdle at Cheltenham then went for a break. What happened last time is not ideal so happy enough to avoid.

Not raced for 11 months. Closed off last preparation when eighth in a LR (3218m) at Fairyhouse, beaten 9 lengths. Presents a serious threat.

Safely held latest finishing fourth but beaten 22 lengths in a novice hurdle (3218m) at Navan. Strong finish latest and looks a key chance again.

Yet to land a glove in two runs this time in work. Opened with a sixth in a novice hurdle (3419m) at Punchestown then was 23 lengths away in a hurdle (3218m) at Leopardstown two months ago. Hard to fault on his best jumps form.

Made a strong return from a 82-day layoff last time out in a LR (3621m) at Leopardstown, finishing third when partnered by today's rider Eoghan Finegan. Fitter and sure to go well again.

Clocked-in second two runs ago in a hurdle (4023m) at Navan. Repeated the dose more recently when second in a hurdle (4828m) at Limerick, beaten 1.3 lengths. Ideally placed return to winning form.

Registered his first win last campaign at Clonmel. Resumed last time out with a midfield finish (3218m) at Punchestown. Fitter for run. Place best.

Was first up from a 67- day layoff last start and did not finish the race in a hurdle (4023m) at Navan. Looking elsewhere.

Filled a minor prize last start in a hurdle (3118m) at this track. That came after success in a steeplechase (3520m) at Limerick by a neck. Winning chance.

Not a bad performance last time in a big field, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths in a hurdle (4123m) at Leopardstown. Strong prospects again.

Has not fired this campaign, including a disappointing seventh last start in a hurdle (3721m) at this track when beaten 54 lengths. Safely held.

Won two back in a steeplechase (4123m) at Down Royal then didn't measure up last time when he finished seventh in a hurdle (4023m) at Navan, beaten 18 lengths. Won't find this easy.

Finished fifth the start before last in a hurdle (4023m) at Navan then could only manage ninth most recently in a novice hurdle (4123m) at Leopardstown. Won't find this easy.

Missed the frame two runs ago in a hurdle (3218m) at Thurles. Did a better job last time when he finished third in a hurdle (3218m) at Thurles. Must be a chance again.

Resumed after a 104-day spell last start with a strong third in a hurdle (3721m) at this track. Has ability and can sneak into the finish.

Missed the placings in a hurdle (3218m) at Limerick two back then did a better job to finish second in a hurdle (3721m) at this track last time out. Prospects look very bright.

Wasn't fancied but returned from a 183-day spell on January 12 with a strong win in a hurdle (3218m) at Punchestown, scoring by a head. Will strip fitter and makes plenty of appeal.
