Easy winner of a Kilbeggan bumper (1m7f, good to yielding) in April on sole run for Lorna Fowler, after which he was sold for 130,000euros; beaten in two good-ground bumpers for new yard, running to a fair level when second over 2m1f here 19 days ago; bred to do well over obstacles; rain would ask a new question of him now switched to hurdles.

Form & Verdict
Promise in a point and on his bumper debut but he failed to progress over hurdles for Stuart Crawford; picked up by this yard for £16,000 shortly after finishing fourth at Ayr in May 2022; the absence since is a concern but he returns in a weak race and needs a market check.

Shaped well in an Irish point and on bumper debut; too free in his second bumper but would probably have finished second in a maiden hurdle at Bangor (2m, soft) 18 days ago had he not sprawled on landing two out and unseated; that's something to build on and he's one to consider.

A couple of promising efforts in bumpers when trained in Ireland; he was just coming under pressure when badly hampered by a faller two out at Hexham (soft) on stable/hurdle debut 16 days ago, losing all chance in the process, but he did plug on again to take fourth; capable of better.
