The lack of a recent run adds to what already looks a tall order, not high on the list

More needed but on the plus side, he does seem to save some of his best for here

Maiden form not much to write home about, needs to come out swinging

Not a great deal of miles on the clock over hurdles but has it to prove

Probably needed it when off the pace at Clonmel, expect a good deal better

Maiden form falls well short of the mark, switch to handicaps needs to work wonders
