Form & Verdict
Well-bred, pricey store horse, costing 230,000euros as a 3yo; didn't jump well but showed some ability when 4th in a maiden hurdle at this track almost a year ago behind some quality rivals; his absence since is a concern but has the ability to win this if all is well.

Bumper and maiden hurdle winner before regressing for Gordon Elliott, and new yard hasn't arrested that decline; after a break, never involved over this trip at Galway and well held over longer trips last twice.
