Got back to his best when winning a Killarney handicap over this trip last time off a big weight; however, has previously been found wanting when stepped up to this company and needs a step forward.

Form & Verdict

Three-time winner in UK won the Irish Lincoln on debut for this yard before winning a Tipperary conditions race, both on easy ground; not a bad run in a Curragh Listed race last time but needs a bit more now.

Won a Navan conditions race in May and has run creditably in Listed company since then, notably when second at Killarney in first-time cheekpieces; didn't get a clear run at Galway last time but needs more in this company.
