Quiet in his maidens but was loud in the market ahead of his handicap debut at Naas (soft to heavy) and duly won with any amount in hand; whacked up 13lb but he's well related and no doubt has a lot more to offer.

Placed in three of her last four races, every chance if a step up in trip does the trick after a recent second placing in a 16-runner 2m contest at Clonmel; more mature now than when fading in the closing stages over C&D last November.
