Best runs last year came in a valuable Leopardstown handicap (1m1f, good to firm) when second in first-time cheekpieces, and when a close sixth at the Curragh next time in the same headgear; form regressed when headgear left off in two runs afterwards and it doesn't appear here.

Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in February and was good second at Chelmsford (1m2f) in April; well held at Kempton last month but he travelled smoothly for a long way and may have stretched stamina on that step up to 1m3f; now drops back in trip/grade and he's not ruled out.
