Both wins have been at 7f but he needed all of that trip at the Curragh (good) a month ago to be ahead when it mattered; it's debatable whether he's got enough boot under the bonnet to win this much deeper race; best form on good or yielding (below par on softer).

Sole win came at Cork two years ago but went close last summer over 1m7f at Leopardstown and more recently close third over 1m4f at Galway last month; didn't quite get home in heavy ground at Listowel but solid run nonetheless; blinkers now replace cheekpieces.

Some okay runs in 1m turf maidens at two and placed over that trip on seasonal/AW debut last month; too keen and faded over 1m2f on handicap bow at Leopardstown but plenty of stamina on dam-side and may well get this trip if settling better; tongue-tie goes on.
