Gained second handicap win off 104 at Cork in November (2m, yielding); well beaten at Punchestown next time but improved for step up in trip when staying on third of 23 at Leopardstown in December (20.5f, good to yielding); weakened into a 20l fifth of ten at Thurles (2m7f, heavy); better chance if the ground dries out.

Series of placed efforts (including twice here) rewarded by 2m1f Limerick win early last month under enterprising ride, kept wide and making all in beating Dairy Force an eased 15l (good); 12lb hike makes this a lot tougher and unlikely to be given such leeway this time.
