Enjoyed a good spell last summer, including a win at this track (1m, good); fair efforts in defeat this year before improving to score at Down Royal (7f, good) on latest; up 5lb but right in the mix again as long as the ground doesn't deteriorate.

Largely consistent veteran, 7-74 in his career and made the frame on three visits to this track, including seven days ago when 5l fourth to Bella Isabella; handles soft; needs things to fall right given how he's ridden; drawn wide; each-way chance if granted a solid pace to aim at.

Two wins last year on good ground, including at Roscommon off 80; bounced back to form with encouraging third at same track last month before backing that up under positive ride at Down Royal 13 days ago when 1.5l second to Faoladh; definitely capable off this mark but soft ground a concern.
