'Left clear at Fairyhouse but would probably have won anyway; 7lb rise is fair.'

'A late mistake perhaps cost him when reeled in late on at Aintree; big shout.'

'5lb out of the weights and still a maiden, but his Leopardstown second was encouraging.'

'Contested Grade 1s the last twice and this mark is okay given his highs over hurdles.'

'Can give his running under these conditions but perhaps vulnerable from a win perspective.'

'About a length up on Dinoblue when falling late on at Fairyhouse; progressing well.'

'Jumped better in the blinkers when staying on best at Gowran; up 7lb for that.'

'Has struggled since hit by the handicapper for his clear-cut win at Wexford last summer.'

'Good first half of the season but now has to steady the ship after recent failures.'

'Tricky customer but no surprise to see him smuggled into contention.'
