Form & Verdict
Sets a decent standard here, having shown progressive form in five starts, notably Roscommon second and narrow Bellewstown defeat when effectively throwing race away when jinking approaching pathway inside final furlong; has the ability to win one of these but clearly isn't straightforward and visor replaces cheekpieces worn last time.

Both wins have been at 7f but he needed all of that trip at the Curragh (good) a month ago to be ahead when it mattered; it's debatable whether he's got enough boot under the bonnet to win this much deeper race; best form on good or yielding (below par on softer).
