Got to within 1.75l of Ballyfad in a Punchestown bumper (16.5, heavy) in November; below that level next two bumper runs but encouraging effort on hurdles debut when an 8.75l fourth behind three geldings at this venue (2m4f, yielding) last month; enters calculations now.

Still searching for a first win but had some good bumper form early on and hasn't done a lot wrong over hurdles; went close in 2m7f maiden in April and solid third over 3m at Wexford when favourite for handicap debut; should be thereabouts with 7lb claimer back on.

Maiden showed plenty of promise in bumpers and has run some fine races over hurdles, the best of which when a close second over 2m7f at Cork; not as good over 2m4f last time but the step back up in trip can help on handicap debut; chance.

Useful bumper form; rated 110 after four spins over hurdles, his best effort coming on latest at Cork (2m7f, yielding) when a neck second of 13; likely to make a bold bid dropped back in trip for his local yard.

Easily his best RPR was when a well-held third behind Shuttle Diplomacy at Naas in January; solid enough run when second in a Cork novice but he's now 0-8 and could be vulnerable once more.

Touched off in a bumper in the autumn; by far his best maiden hurdle run was when 100-1 third at Naas in January (2m3f, heavy), winner ran well at Cheltenham, second and fourth won maidens next time; hasn't come close to that form since.
