Form & Verdict

In good form in the spring, winning a Killarney maiden hurdle before a good third in a Leopardstown Flat handicap; beaten at odds-on over hurdles at Bellewstown in July; plenty left in the tank when sixth of 14 at Tipperary (12.5f) on the Flat last month, hampered; each-way player.

Form & Verdict

Completed hurdling four-timer at Tramore (2m, good to yielding) last month with previous wins having come over further; non-runner (stiff) on the Flat two days later but this Aga Khan-bred won with plenty to spare last time and he might overcome the 9lb hike.
