Over two years since his only win; good AW run in July and fair effort when eighth of 28 at the Curragh latest; Colin Keane rides him for the first time since 2022; should not be ruled out.

A close third in a Dundalk handicap last month showed he has some potential off this basement mark; not as effective but not beaten far at Gowran since; good draw and a top 5lb claimer on board.

Listowel win came two years ago but best effort for some time when front-running close third at Dundalk earlier this month when 7lb out of handicap; has to be considered on turf return.

Lightly raced but an eyecatching fourth at Cork on handicap debut, flying home to finish about 3l behind Doctor Grace over this trip; this stiff track should suit and is one to consider.
