Comment: Absent since a heavy defeat in the Grand National on debut for new yard; competitively treated on the pick of his form for Willie Mullins but needs to prove he's still capable of showing it; admittedly this drop back in trip/class is a plus.

Comment: Hung left but went close over hurdles at Southwell (3m, good) five days ago on debut for new stable, pulling clear of the third; now goes in reapplied cheekpieces, which should be beneficial; cracking chance off same mark, especially having gained his wins over fences (point/rules).
