Last year's second and no surprise if he put in a much improved show here

Progressive stayer, insufficient stamina test at Tramore last Friday; big player

Runs well here and recent chase run encouraging; don't rule out

Not as good a chaser but respected back hurdling with tongue-tie tried

Yet to convince in handicaps; upped further in trip here but hard to be confident in

Opening two handicap efforts underwhelming; needs more respite from the handicapper

Ran no sort of race on first attempt at 3m when last seen so stamina remains unproven
