Promise when fifth on debut at the Curragh (1m1f, yld-sft) last September; denied by a head at Leopardstown when last seen in October and the fourth from that race has since gone close in a Group 3; fascinating runner for champion jumps trainer. |

80,000euros foal made 140,000euros as a yearling; brother to French 1m2f AW winner Valzak (RPR 79); dam French 1m4f AW winner, half-sister to winners Vertana (1m4f Listed) and Val d'Hiver (1m1f Listed); ran well for long way on last month's Curragh debut, eventually beaten 8l on soft ground; better ground here may suit. |

9st 12lb |
Opening handicap effort earlier this month offered plenty of encouragement, coming home strongly after not clear run to finish fourth behind a progressive type over 1m4f; drop in trip may not be ideal but major player nonetheless with likely more to offer and rider claims a valuable 5lb off top weight. |

Best of three maiden efforts came here over 1m last October (yielding); bred to be better than an opening mark of 78 and his dam won over 1m4f, so good chance he'll stay this far on handicap debut; yard amongst winners. |

Didn't show a whole lot in two starts last year; step in the right direction on seasonal return here last month (1m2f, yld-sft) but was still beaten 6.5l into fourth; longer trip and new cheekpieces need to eke out more. |

Big prices all three maidens but sent off 11-2 on handicap debut at Cork (1m4f, gd-yld) and duly delivered a 0.5l win off 63 (Servare a 3.75l fifth); the third from that race has since hosed up in a maiden; raised 5lb but from a talented family and could be more to come. |
