Successful off a 6lb lower mark on good ground at Ballinrobe over an extended 2m1f in August last year. Well held on return to hurdling in Roscommon handicap hurdle over the extended 2m.
Has been in good form over hurdles and gained another deserved win when upped to 2m5f at Limerick, before meeting trouble in running at the Galway festival and not given a hard time when beaten in extended, 20-runner 2m handicap on the Flat.
One win from seven starts over hurdles which came on soft ground at Fairyhouse in April but is fit from the Flat, but disappointed a little when fourth of eight, beaten 24L on hurdling return at the Galway festival.
Has won over hurdles, off since disappointing effort over fences in March, before disappointing at Killarney, but finished third of 20 in a promising run over hurdles at the Galway festival.
Winner over hurdles here in May of a 8lb lower mark, third of nine in June on last hurdle start at Downpatrick over the extended 2m1f, beaten 8¾L.
Forecasts
Whats The Plot (9/4), The Irregular (5/2), Denham Sound (3/1), Walkabout (9/2), From Eden (10/1)
The, not so quick pace, in this race will come in the shape of From Eden with Walkabout following. The early pace, or lack of it, could well set the race up for a three-way tussle between The Irregular, Denham Sound, who both ran respectably at the Galway festival, and the selection, WHAT'S THE PLOT, CD and the one to beat.
