Impressive debut winner over 9.5f at Gowran last summer and ran respectably in Group company after; ground was very heavy when beaten favourite at Naas on return; first time running over this short a trip and interesting contender.

in touch with leaders, headway and prominent on near side of group 2f out, outpaced when short of room and hampered inside final furlong, kept on towards finish, no match for first two

All three starts over a similar trip to this; impressive maiden winner at Gowran before running creditably in Group class in France and at the Curragh; has been off since August, though and has yet to encounter ground this soft; big player if handling it.
