Successful twice over fences in late 2016 including in a four runner Grade 3 contest at Navan (yielding-to-soft). Ran well in a Grade 2 subsequently but well beaten in a Grade 1 contest at Fairyhouse when last in action in April. Drops markedly in grade today.
Winner twice over fences so far most recently off a mark of 144 in a valuable contest at Killarney (good) over 2m1f earlier this week. Also victorious at Fairyhouse over fences and likely to run well if recovered from his Killarney exertions.
Beaten a nose in a handicap chae over 2m at Punchestown (good) last time out. Latest success came back in October 2015 and others are better suited by today's weights.
Winner over fences at Ballinrobe (good) iin May but well held off a mark of 116 there subsequently and likely to struggle in this contest.
Running well in low grade handicaps on the Flat of late and finished runner-up at Navan earlier this month. Likely to struggle on just his fourth chase start.
Forecasts
Ballyoisin (4/9), Attribution (9/2), Shadow Catcher (7/1), Kalann (16/1), Rocky Court (20/1)
BALLYOISIN ran well in some classy novice chases last season and was successful in a handicap chase at Killarney earlier this week. The selection remains on the upgrade and can take this contest at the chief expense of Attribution who is another to have contested Graded novice events last season. Of the remainder Shadow Catcher comes out best at the weights and can claim third here.
