Form & Verdict
No win since 2023; big chance off this mark on best runs over 1m6f/1m4f last season and though well beaten in both runs this term, they were over an inadequate trip; this distance much more suitable and Colin Keane takes over; interesting.

Ex-Dermot Weld; came from the rear to make a winning start for this yard at this venue (1m2f, good) in May; always close up but had to be switched when neck second to War Rooms at Ballinrobe (1m5f) ten weeks later, looking capable of better still; missed a York engagement when the ground turned softish.

Hasn't added to Bellewstown maiden win of last summer although creditable handicap placings last month at Tramore and Ballinrobe; reportedly saddle slipped leaving stalls at Gowran on latest so that run forgiven; others look better handicapped.
