Commentary

Won 2 of his 3 starts over hurdles last season and took a step forward in the process when landing a Grade 3 novice at Thurles (21f, heavy) in February. Held when falling late in Champion Novices' Hurdle at Punchestown when last seen in May. Type to make a chaser.

What the projection says

Edging ahead of its price lately — not a standalone signal; it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 3rd of 12. Recent form is on the up.
