Much improved on second start when third here over 7f last month, having raced keenly close to much of pace before tiring; drop back in trip should suit but this looks a stronger maiden so more needed.

Second runner for Ado McGuinness has had a good season; winner over 7f at Leopardstown in June and has run well off revised mark since, when fourth to stablemate Eddie G at Galway and on ground faster than ideal over 1m at the Curragh.
