Won here this time last year as a 2yo and series of solid efforts in handicaps of late put him in the mix; tends to race keenly which won't help his chances of seeing out this longer trip though. |

10st 0lb |
Runner-up in 1m2f Listed race in France last backend for former yard; some good runs in defeat this term, notably making up plenty of ground over 1m1f at Tipperary early this month on heavy (Walhaan and Saltonstall behind); drop in trip not ideal but top-weight a definite player. |

Enjoys give underfoot and conditions were heavy when winning this 12 months ago; just two runs since then and was well beaten in a Listed race last time when the ground was favourable; bit to prove now, and belatedly tries cheekpieces. |

Latest of four wins was over two years ago; good second in a premier handicap at the Curragh in June, and fourth in the Irish Cambridgeshire was another fair effort; soft ground against him on latest, more expected of here. |

19th Sep 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |

Grand handicapper, but marksman has had his measure for some time; best run this year was when second in premier handicap, under Lee, at the Curragh (1m) on Derby weekend and also creditable fourth in the Irish Cambridgeshire; slow start and never involved at Leopardstown last Saturday; might race prominently and could go well, but 7f is a bit sharp for him. |
