£50,000 3-y-o, Milan gelding. Brother to fairly useful hurdle winner/useful chaser Marown, and half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Castle Rushen, stays 3m. Runner-up in a point in October. Interesting hurdle newcomer.

Third sole start in points (Oct 2024). The betting should help guide to expectations.

Looked useful when winning 12-runner bumper at Wexford (20f, good to soft, 6/5) in May, easing clear. Shaped well over hurdles prior to that and makes plenty of appeal with progress expected.

Failed to complete both starts in points but was leading when unseating rider at the last on the second occasion. Joined a good yard for his Rules career and it'll be very interesting to see what the betting makes of him.

Won a Listowel bumper for Eugene O'Sullivan last summer. Joined Willie Mullins for his hurdle career. Paul Townend rides Jump Allen but this one still needs monitoring closely in the betting.

LOVELY HURLING was impressive in a bumper last May. He'd also shaped quite well in a hurdle prior to that and could take a bit of stopping if fully primed after his break. Autoportrait is second choice ahead of Peaceinthevalley, who would have won a point last time but for a late unseat, and the Willie Mullins-trained Jump Allen.
