T: A P O’Brien

Tad frustrating in maiden races until improving for first-time tongue-tie at Gowran Park (1m, good) most recently, opening his account with a ready win from the front; faces a markedly stiffer task upped in class and is possibly in here as pacemaker for the yard's main hope Henri Matisse.

Form & Verdict

Second runner for yard; good efforts in first two starts over 7f at the Curragh (good to firm) and Listowel (good); 430,000 euros yearling is well bred and has leading form claims but Dylan Browne McMonagle prefers his stablemate; still dangerous to dismiss on AW debut.

Not This Time colt cost 80,000 euros as a 2yo; fourth foal; half-brother to US 1m1f turf winner Vesture; dam US 5.5f/1m turf winner, sister to French 7.5f Listed winner Ross, half-sister to 7f 2yo/1m Group 3 winner Flaming Rabbit; interesting debutant from in-form yard and the choice of Dylan Browne McMonagle.
