Dual-purpose sort; rated 112 over hurdles; was in the process of running a cracker when returning from 745 days off on his chasing debut at Wexford before falling at the last; pulled a long way clear with one other at Roscommon 13 days later when runner-up (2m1f, soft); this is another run relatively quickly but he looks like he has improved for fences.
