Frankel half-brother to Group 1 Prix Jacques le Marois winner Al Wukair; two good runs in maidens at this trip in the spring, staying-on third at Limerick and left with plenty to do when getting up for second behind a clear-cut winner at Killarney; major chance if handling this faster ground.

Lightly raced 4yo was having first run since July (gelded) when staying-on second to an improver at the Curragh last month (7f, yielding-to-soft) in first-time visor; yet to race in testing conditions but good chance he'll handle it and one to consider.
