Form & Verdict

One of four for trainer; record of 2-3 for Aidan O'Brien in 2023/2024; shaped with promise on reappearance for Joseph O'Brien in a Naas Listed event in May (7f) but didn't reproduce that afterwards; below his best in three runs for current yard here but he's weighted to go well here and Colin Keane takes the reins.
