Form & Verdict
Took a long time to get off the mark but has been better than ever of late, winning over 12.4f here in November (under Patrick Millman) and taking the drop back in distance in his stride when scoring over C&D last month; up 6lb but he's thriving and looks the answer once more.

All three of wins have been at this track (two over C&D) but the latest was over two years ago; reported to have finished lame when a respectable fifth here 46 days ago; often slowly away but he holds each-way claims.

Did well to win at York (good to firm) off just 1lb lower in August but only fourth of five in the Great Metropolitan at Epsom (also 1m4f, good, Topteam behind) 17 days ago; that was a shade underwhelming given he'd won the race in 2025 but was a little weak in the market so maybe better can be expected this time.

Form & Verdict
Well ridden from the front when winning off this mark at Hamilton (extended 1m) five months ago, but placed only once since; ran poorly here 11 days ago in a visor, which is quickly discarded; hard to predict but at least in Eireann Cagney he has one of the better amateurs in the saddle.

Well held after racing too freely at Haydock (11.6f) recently and now 0-20 but ran quite well when fourth under Lauren Frost on last month's stable debut at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm), and his jockey (three wins from 35 rides under rules) is by far the most experienced in this race.
