Won a 2m5f maiden hurdle and a 2m4f novice hurdle the season before last; well held in four chase starts, the latest when a moderate fourth in a Punchestown event in which Slade Steel was brought down.

NR
Wingmen

Never added to his maiden hurdle win last season; however, had smart form in Graded novice races; second to subsequent Grade 1 winner Final Demand here on chase debut; finished 10l behind today's rival Slade Steel when third (beaten favourite) on his next start, also at this venue; no match for Kaid D'Authie at Fairyhouse.

Ballybow

Decent 128-rated novice hurdler last season, winning 2m2f Naas maiden and 3m Grade 3 Clonmel novice (soft); two chase runs at this venue; looks significantly inferior to stablemate Wingmen.

Jockey: Jordan GainfordTrainer: Gordon Elliott

Joystick

1-5 over hurdles and rated 129; a distant fourth behind stablemate Jimmy Du Seuil in a strong beginners' event at Fairyhouse on chase debut; made a couple of mistakes and was tailed off in the Fairyhouse event in which stablemate Kaid D'Authie beat Wingmen.
