Useful bumper and Flat winner, his last win coming in a 1m2f Curragh premier handicap in 2024; some fine efforts in defeat in strong company last year but disappointing on final start; made mistakes when disappointing on second hurdle start in 2023; the one to beat if his jumping holds up.

Maiden winner who came up short in three Group events as 2yo; 15-2 in cheekpieces for his seasonal/handicap debut in London Gold Cup at Newbury (1m2f, good; unraced on firmer) last month, plugging on for a creditable fifth of ten; not far off the best of these on form, as he's kept on improving his rating in defeat, and powerful stable had five possible runners before the declaration stage; very smart half-sister Free Wind won at up to an extended 1m6f, too, but this one still doesn't seem the most striking candidate.
