Competitively campaigned in the past year, often in small-field conditions race; third in the Kerry National and filled the same position in a Grade 2 at Down Royal; out of his depth in a 2m Grade 3 event at Naas before an excellent display in finishing second in the Troytown Chase. |

Ten race maiden under Rules is 0-2 in chases; mild improvement on second start in this sphere on latest at Down Royal but was still beaten 16l in the first-time hood (retained); hard to make a case for. |

Placed form in maidens in 2023 over shorter trips; did not appear in 2024; no show over 2m2f at this venue before profiting from a step up to 3m at Wexford; could be in the mix again off 5lb higher. |

Lost his form after gaining a first win at Naas in April last year off 107 (2m3f, good to yielding); switch of stable brought some mild promise at Clonmel last time when shaping as though that first run back could bring him forward. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Seven-time turf winner ran a nice race to finish second at Gowran earlier this week (12.5f, gd-fm): rated 4lb higher on this surface and while he's 0-17 on the AW, he's gone close on plenty of occasions off much higher marks; chance, once this doesn't come too soon. |

On a long losing run since his last win in September 2024; has had two of his last three starts in Britain; unplaced at Ripon last time, fine effort when second at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) behind subsequent Royal Ascot winner Opportunity; closely matched with Navy Waters on running at the Curragh in June. |
