Overcame trouble in running to win a 6f maiden here in September after being gelded; waiting tactics probably overdone in the C&D nursery won by Nyman since; should turn the tables here on 16lb better terms and looks the one to beat. |

Won under a 10lb claimer at the Curragh (7f, good) in August; didn't seem to handle the drop back to 6f when fifth at Fairyhouse last month; should handle the Polytrack but tough task at the weights. |

Promise in all three maidens and off the mark at the second attempt in handicaps under this 10lb claimer at the Curragh (7f, good); up 7lb for that but should continue to be competitive off his revised rating; obvious chance if handling this drop back in trip. |

Encouraging fourth in a Leopardstown maiden on debut; possibly didn't handle very testing ground at Galway on next outing; slowly away when never involved at Naas last month; half-brother and dam were both AW winners; could improve on the Polytrack on handicap debut. |

Maiden winner on the Flat last year (good) coped well with testing conditions on seasonal return when second at Naas but form petered off afterwards; back from a break however in good form to score on hurdles debut for new yard in Cork maiden last month on good ground, travelling well to win with a fair bit to spare (second beaten favourite since); should go well. |
