Won 1m4f/1m6f handicaps in Ireland last summer and consistent form afterwards; left Johnny Murtagh for 52,000gns and has joined another good yard but he was last of 14 at Chelmsford (1m6f; 8-1) two weeks ago on AW debut; headgear (he ran creditably in some on three occasions in Ireland) returns. |

Most success on good ground and won his only start on good to firm; reliable in recent seasons, which included Flat wins over 2m at Clonmel (in fine style) last September and 1m6f at Fairyhouse (non-handicap; smoothly) six weeks ago; this mark gives him more to prove (third at Newmarket last term off 5lb lower) but he needs respect. |

Dual-purpose; 1-7 on the Flat; won over hurdles at Ballinrobe in May; below par on last Flat run at Fairyhouse; his flat win came off 64 at Down Royal (1m5f, good) and is 15lb higher here; handles testing ground but may need some respite from the handicapper. |
