Up 5lb for last win but yet to run over 1m4f and has not looked to be crying out for it
8 (2)	Rhythm And Tyne Bay J:Darragh O'Sullivan(7) T:C Byrnes	J:Darragh O'Sullivan(7) T:C Byrnes	130	—	11/02-	66	71	16	30d	—	—	-6	8	11/2 15%
Proved effective over this trip when touched off in a C&D claimer last month; big chance

Attractive proposition in a race where some of the market leaders are unproven at the trip
1 (5)	Polemon Bay J:Keithen Kennedy T:Denis Gerard Hogan	J:Keithen Kennedy T:Denis Gerard Hogan	142	tp	45109-	78	78	15	—	—	—	+9	13.2	18/1 5%
Comes here on the back of two decent efforts in maiden hurdles; not discounted

34-race maiden; some reasonable placed form but has always found one or two too good
