Stepped forward from his chasing debut when third over 2m7f at Punchestown, more needed

Made a fair start to chasing career at Naas, out of his depth in the Drinmore

Soundly beaten in his first two chase starts, possibly flattered by 132 official rating

High-class hurdler who has serious questions to answer after his first three chase starts

Useful hurdler at this trip, modest chase form over shorter, major improvement required
