Carried out early final circuit in a Clonmel bumper in March. Strong in the betting and created an excellent impression sent hurdling when winning 11-runner novice at Tipperary (16.4f, soft) 42 days ago. The runner-up has franked that form since and he rates a useful prospect.

Made the most of a good opportunity when winning 13-runner maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) in August, responding well. Wasn't up to better company at Down Royal since, however.

Has been reluctant at the start but is consistent and typically gave her running when 6½ lengths second of 6 in Grade 3 at Tipperary (16.1f, good to soft, 13/2) 43 days ago. Should give another good account.

Doubled her tally over hurdles with victory in Sligo handicap in October before following up back on the Flat in 18-runner event at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 21 days ago. Flying too high in this grade, however.

ACE BRANNIGAN created a good impression when seeing off a subsequent winner comfortably on his Tipperary hurdling debut in October and looks sure to go on to better things now stepping up in grade. I'll Sort That had fortune on his side at Galway but remains open to improvement nonetheless, with Ma Jacks Hill the pick of the Gordon Elliott-trained pair.
