Lightly raced on AW in Ireland but he has improved significantly since blinkers were added, most recently running away with a 1m handicap at Dundalk in January (taking him to 3-3 in headgear); no issue with the longer trip (won over 1m4f on penultimate start) but a 13lb rise for last time (raised a total of 28lb for the three wins), allied to significantly stronger opposition, could leave him vulnerable; his tendency to hang sharply right won't be an asset here either. |

Can lead; won two big-field 7f handicaps in Ireland earlier in career and shone on AW for this yard over the winter, winning six times at 6f to 1m; plenty of creditable efforts in defeat on turf since, notably his close second of 23 in the Ayr Silver Cup (6f, heavy; acts on good to firm) 13 days ago; bold show likely if in similar form. |
