Improved on first start for Shark Hanlon when runner-up on chase debut at Downpatrick (19.5f, good) off 2lb lower; they pulled well clear and he should relish the extra distance here.

Record of 0-25 under rules but is a better chaser; backed from 50-1 into 10-1 before the off when fifth in 3m1f Tipperary maiden hurdle eight days ago; had three runner-up finishes in handicap chases last summer; each-way contender.

Patchy form over hurdles but improved on his chase debut when close third at Sligo (3m2f, good) off this mark in October; not as good at Punchestown next time; chance if the jumping brushes up a bit.

Record of 0-10 over hurdles, best effort when third of 16 at Punchestown (20.5f, good to yielding) last May; off since October; would be of interest if the market vibes are strong on chase debut.
