Very useful horse on the flat up until Christmas 2022, where he made hurdling bow at Leopardstown, beating Jetara by four lengths when priced at 9/2.
He followed that by unseating James Slevin at Leopardstown last month, where Il Etait Temps took the Grade One Tattersalls Ireland Novice Hurdle crown.
He remains capable of better after jumping poorly last month but it is difficult to weigh up his chances against some top runners here.
