In good form at Dundalk over the winter; placed in opening two m'dens there before making the breakthrough in a 7f contest in January; beaten just a nose over the same trip next time; appeared not to stay a mile before beating his odds-on 99-rated stablemate by a head over 6f when last seen; interesting race-fit contender now returned to turf.

Off the mark on seasonal return in a Curragh handicap (1m, good), making all in dominant fashion; hit hard for that with a 10lb rise and came up short in a premier handicap back at the Curragh latest (1m, good, 9-2); that run looked too bad to be true and was found to be coughing post-race; drops in trip but she's interesting if rebounding.
