Safely held latest finishing fifth but beaten 25 lengths in the G3 Native Upmanship (Pierce Molony Memorial) Novice Chase (4325m) at Thurles. Looks tested this line-up and others preferred.

Made it two jumps wins on the bounce when he scored by 1.3 lengths in the G3 Flyingbolt Novice Chase (3218m) at Navan last start. Key runner on recent form.

Last appeared on February 1 when 99th in the G1 Dr P. J. Moriarty Novice Chase (4325m) at Leopardstown. Has strong first-up credentials. Should make a bold return.

Returns after a break of three months. Was unbeaten in two runs last campaign, heading back to the paddock after scoring in a G3 (3922m) at Punchestown. Tough to beat despite the layoff.

Seven-year-old gelding who resumes here off a short 84 day break. Yet to taste defeat from three fresh up runs. Has to be included on fresh-up record.

Useful jumper who was unplaced in a G3 (3922m) at Punchestown two starts ago. Made amends and scored by 12 lengths in a steeplechase (3319m) at Punchestown last start. Major player again.

Resumes after two months. Form last preparation was very good, winning three times. Well placed here and expected to be tough to beat.

Finished second at Leopardstown two starts back but followed up with a disappointing tenth in the G1 Broadway Novices' Chase (5029m) at Cheltenham last start. Drops back -1006m in distance but looks tested without significant improvement.

Returns from a spell. Closed the last campaign with a minor placing in the G1 Scilly Isles Novices Chase (4023m) at Sandown Park, beaten 5 lengths. Reliable type with six jumps wins to her name. Others rate better this time.
