Expensive yearling never ran for William Haggas but showed some ability on debut for this yard in a Navan maiden over 1m2f; should have improved for that and be more effective over this trip; cheekpieces worn then are retained.

Hasn't been at his best on the Flat the last twice (effective in that scene) but he's talented and won a 2m maiden hurdle at Navan in March without much fuss, fulfilling the promise of his initial effort in a good race at Naas; just a worry that those best efforts have been in the mud and this trip represents a new venture.

Best of her four maiden runs was when third over 1m3f at Killarney in July, finishing roughly 3l ahead of Alcalance; that rival is now rated 1lb higher but there shouldn't be much between them; has handled soft ground.

Was in the process of running a big race when coming down late at Cork on her return and gained compensation in 2m2f Downpatrick maiden in July, battling well after making much of running; missed two engagements since due to softer ground so won't want too much rain.

Form & Verdict
Put up fine efforts on both starts last year, notably when a close second in a 1m1f Curragh maiden second time; below that level twice this term but should have improved from Naas handicap run last time after a break; soft ground fine and cheekpieces added up in trip.

Capable of useful form over fences in Ireland for Gordon Elliott but he's still to score in this sphere and has offered little for his new yard, jumping sketchily when pulled up in 3m Doncaster handicap three weeks ago; plenty more is required despite a tumbling mark.
