First foal; dam poor maiden half-sister to winners Ready To Roc (5f 2yo/US 6f), Quirky Gertie (7f) and I Am Dandy (7f); plenty green, didn't run badly on debut at Leopardstown last October, not quite getting home over 1m1f on heavy ground; potential improver back in trip on better ground.

Lightly raced 4yo progressing really well and on a four-timer after a trio of 1m wins, including handicaps at Leopardstown and here in late August when impressive in 17-runner Irish Cambridgeshire (good); should be well capable of holding his own in Listed class, providing he handles this softer ground.

The best of four maiden runs came over 7f at Limerick but also ran well enough over 1m here next time; was gelded after a below-form run at Fairyhouse over 1m2f since; this trip is a question back from a break, but still has to be respected.

Well bred and has shaped as though in need of further in both starts this season, over 7f at Limerick (yielding) and 1m at Gowran (gd-yld); steps up in trip now and his official rating of 73 might underestimate him; big player.

Some fair runs in maidens and handicaps up to 1m4f before a poor effort from a high draw at Galway; back to form at Punchestown over 1m four days ago and the step up in trip will suit; not helped by a high draw, though.
