Rapid ascent in the Irish handicap last season, winning three times for Declan Queally; well beaten on final start there, however, and bought for £28,000 in May before also well beaten at Ffos Las (40-1; ridden prominently) three weeks ago for new yard; could be all the better with that outing behind him and, with his Irish wins all on soft or heavy, he's not dismissed.
