Ran better at Navan than on his Curragh debut but was still only seventh of 12 (5.5f); this is his first run on faster ground but probably one for handicaps.

Left his previous two starts behind when winning a 6f Fairyhouse maiden last month and out of his depth in the Coventry since; potential improver now handicapping but his two starts with soft in the going description aren't encouraging.

No Nay Never half-brother to six winners; noticeably weak in the betting (10-1) when only fifth of seven runners in a 5f novice at York's Dante meeting; every chance of being seen in a brighter light with that experience in the bag and today's extra furlong can only benefit.

He's got back on track in a major way in 5f handicaps this spring, winning at Newmarket then impressively making all in a big field at York last week (both on good ground; effective on soft early in career); back up in grade this afternoon but this thriving 5yo could be capable of another bold bid.

Snapped a lengthy losing sequence when making virtually all to win at Newmarket (5f, good) last month on his reappearance; he needs to back up that performance but did it comfortably last time and, following a 5lb rise, remains well treated on his historic exploits; a possible.
