Good effort in second spot behind Rockbury Lad (gave 1lb) last week, but more went right than wrong for him on that occasion and once again came up a small bit short; often flatters to deceive but at the same time, sound each-way claims, albeit from a bad draw.

Long-standing maiden spurned another good chance on the beach last week; has gone close against good horses but basically flatters to deceive and is not one to trust, although placed several times here and chance of being in the first three again from gate one.

Three-time AW winner in Britain at this trip but Dundalk form earlier in the year was poor; hard to fancy back on turf after a break although ground should suit.
