Yet to add to his four chase wins for Philip Kirby during 2023-24 season but has made the frame on all four starts for current stable since December, most recently when third of five at Newcastle (2m4f, good) nine days ago; tried in cheekpieces today; probably won't be far away.

With Phil Kirby when left alone in a match at Kelso (3m, soft) in February 2024, that being his fourth (and most recent) win over fences; runner-up in this last year (beaten 11l) for Lizzie Quinlan; in the frame three times (Musselburgh) for Hugh Burns; competes from an easing mark, needing more.

On a two-year losing spell but looks reasonably solid, having posted two respectable efforts over C&D this winter for new yard; remains well treated on peak form.

Four chase wins in the 2023-24 season (including on soft ground); 0-11 since but ran well off this reduced mark when runner-up over C&D (good to soft) on last month's stable debut, following a break; one to consider.

J: Sean Quinlan

T: Lizzie Quinlan

Yet to win for current stable but gave good account when third (just behind Arthur's Quay) here (2m1f, good to soft) five weeks ago and ought to be better suited by this longer trip; effective on soft ground (unraced on heavy); major player.
