Form & Verdict

Placed five times from seven career starts, including when nailed on the line at Bellewstown in April (1m, soft), having tried to make all; runner-up again at Dundalk last time when a neck in front of Rock Of Claremont; his front-running style will suit this track and he's consistent.
