Form & Verdict
Last year's third in a 20-runner Curragh maiden won by Paddington reads exceptionally well in the light of the winner's Group 1 exploits this season; however; he has failed to build on that in two subsequent runs; tongue-tie tried now following disappointing handicap debut at Leopardstown.
