Solid Galway debut on easy ground when 1.5l ahead of Baltray Lady but not as good on quicker at Gowran since, albeit a decent effort too; would likely prefer easier ground but still has a big shout down in grade.

Promising debut at Galway and bounced back from a lesser run when beaten roughly 1l in a maiden claimer at Navan three weeks ago; winner came out and ran well in a handicap subsequently; ought to be a big player if he can build on that.
