Winner on soft at Sligo in 2023 and added 1m4f Dundalk AW win this time last year; recent runs at latter venue leave him with a fair bit to find however. |

His two wins include a C&D score last October; mixed form on turf this year and beaten nearly 7l over 1m2.5f here last week; this trip suits better but still needs more. |
