Highly tried first time out (6f Group 3) and he could have beaten a useful colt (debutant but Group 1-entered) when nicely on top at the finish to justify long odds-on favouritism at Gowran (7f, good); has since bypassed a trio of Group 2 entries on account of unsuitable ground (yielding then good the last twice) and he's clearly very smart; leading Irish stable's only runner here since 2005 was a winner (Cambridge last season).
