Half-brother to his trainer's Grade 3 novice chase winner San Salvador; ordinary maiden form; never involved after an early mistake on his handicap debut at this venue; showed major improvement at Killarney; form has been franked by the winner in scoring on the Flat at Navan, and by the third with a hurdle win at Punchestown; noteworthy jockey booking.
