Two-time C&D winner on heavy off higher marks; went close again over C&D in October, again on heavy; caught the eye when short of room and not beaten far at Killarney on latest (1m, good); softer conditions would be preferable but he's got plenty of decent form on this sort of ground and his yard targets this meeting; chance.
