The visor has sharpened him and got the job done nicely here (6f, yielding) in August; trailed in last of the 22 runners over the same C&D 11 days ago off 8lb higher; first 5f attempt. |

Promise over C&D in the spring; the visor has sharpened him and got the job done nicely here in August; now 8lb higher, but yard in form and has to enter calculations again. |

Is 0-7 but produced his best run yet when a 0.5l second of 12 in first-time visor (retained) at Sligo (6f, yielding) 24 days ago; nudged up 2lb but seems to act on most ground and rider takes off valuable 7lb; shortlisted. |

Won over 5f here in April and has run well for this rider over longer trips since, including when just fading late into third over C&D last week; worth another try at the trip although not ideally drawn. |

Winner over 5f here in April and dead-heated in 5f handicap at Chepstow the following month; narrowly beaten over this trip at Doncaster; not beaten far over 5f at Navan when last seen; likely to go well for his inexperienced rider. |

Has left 2yo form well behind since being gelded and going handicapping, winning easily at Dundalk, dead-heating at Chepstow and finishing second at Doncaster (6f), having travelled well into contention; now 12lb higher than when winning at Down Royal so more needed but possible. |

Front-running fifth at 200-1 in a 9.5f Ballinrobe maiden on penutlimate looks like a bit of an aberration based on overall form; hard to make a case for. |

Faces first Listed assignment but he's entitled to a crack at this level on the figures and, after finishing second in the Irish Cambridgeshire, he didn't get the breaks in another strong handicap at the Curragh 22 days ago (1m2f); respected. |

Ran to a similar level in four starts for Aidan O'Brien and was returning from a wind operation when third of nine in a C&D novice (first-time visor and tongue-tie) on his stable debut 18 days ago; better is needed from his opening mark on this handicap debut. |

Showed a consistent level of form in four defeats (6f-7f) for Aidan O'Brien, whom he left for 24,000gns; has definite form claims but he's undergone wind surgery, sports new headgear (tried blinkers on second run) and has been off since October; market confidence would be welcomed. |

All three starts over 6f at the Curragh; Ran poorly when 50-1 on debut last June; stronger in the betting the next twice and ran much better, beaten just 1l when third of 16 behind Mumhan (yld-sft) and beaten 2.25l when runner up behind Silk Braid (yielding); should appreciate the step up to 7f and big chance if ready after break. |

Displayed some strong juvenile form when runner-up in a pair of Curragh maidens; very disappointing this year and her mark has collapsed from 84 to 57; would pick these up and carry them on last year's form, but that is a distant memory at this stage. |
