Off the mark in a Limerick maiden hurdle (18.5f, yielding) in November; never figured stepped up to 23.5f at Punchestown on handicap debut after a break; sharper now and down 3lb; could bounce back dropped in trip. |

Maiden was third in consecutive handicaps over 2m1f at Wexford in July but has been below that level twice since, including at Gowran last week; needs more. |

11st 10lb |
Chased home a clear winner in a Limerick maiden in November (yielding) and has run encouragingly in Wexford handicaps over the summer on good ground, filling the frame twice; recent Bellewstown effort was a step backwards, but in the mix if at his best, although softer conditions would raise a doubt. |

No wins from eight but the best of those runs came at this track in a maiden on her penultimate start when a 9.25l third of 10 (2m6f, good to yielding); never featured when stepped back into handicap company at Cartmel last month (2m6f, soft); place-chance. |
