Two solid runs at Wexford in maiden hurdles were not followed up on in a 13L defeat in a Tramore novice hurdle last month. Yard do like a winner at this meeting.
Rock-solid runs last month including a win at Tramore over 2m on rain-softened ground were not followed up on handicap debut at Galway on Monday. Could still be on a high mark.
Registering the second success of his career when winning a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse on soft to heavy ground in early April. Could struggle a little here 14lb higher than that win.
Ran well at Gowran Park in June but has put in three below-par performances and others have stronger profiles for this contest.

Aa Bee See (10/3), Canny Tom (4/1), Get Smart (4/1), Whats The Plot (9/2), Coherent (6/1), Ashjan (7/1), Scotch Beg (9/1), Theturnofthesun (12/1)
Scotch Egg likes to get on with things in the early stages of the race and will take the field along at a decent clip. C&D winner Ashjan, Whats The Plot and Get Smart can hit the frame here but a chance is taken with COHERENT who has genuine form on the ground.
