OffTheflyingking
There are real doubts over THEFLYINGKING's temperament but he's hard to get away from at this level having gone close in a Navan Grade 2 when last seen in November. Angelo Dundee is interesting starting out for Henry de Bromhead, with Ehteyat completing the shortlist.

Point/bumper winner who was unlucky not to make a successful hurdles debut in maiden here in October (in control when fell last). Again managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in Navan Grade 3 since but that was solely temperament-related as opposed to jumping-linked. Sets a good standard.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNavan2m 50ySoft to Heavy (Soft in places)Hurdle2/7Down Royal2m 6f 110yGood to Yielding (Yielding in places)HurdleF/7Wexford2mGood to YieldingBumper1/11Fairyhouse2mSoftBumper2/7Down Royal2m 1f 53yGood to Yielding (Yielding in places)Bumper2/14- 6Small FryJ: H.

Developed into a useful handicapper on the Flat.
