In good form; runner up here over 21.5f (soft); breakthrough win on latest at Kilbeggan (2m3f, gd-yld), making all to score decisively by 8l; raised 8lb but should make another bold bid; big player. |

Couple of placed efforts in November-December before going with no enthusiasm and being pulled up at Clonmel and Down Royal in opening 2026 runs; back on track with a 6l second at Limerick last time (2m6f, soft); needs to back it up and this is harder. |
