Was gaining a 12th win (five in claimers) on the Flat when taking Ballinrobe handicap last month in some style under today's rider; two days later folded quite tamely once headed over shorter trip at Naas, that race may have come too soon; veteran respected. |

Prolific Flat and dual hurdles winner at a fairly modest level; long losing run but twice placed in claiming hurdles including latest when 6l off Cozone at Clonmel (2m4f, good); rider's claim brings the pair closer but still needs to find more. |
