Solid debut over 6f behind a well-regarded filly and improved on that when runner-up at Navan, also over 6f; now looks in need of this extra furlong having come from off the pace for a neck second over 6f here on return.

Mostly running well in defeat this season; beaten 5l when second at Listowel (7f, heavy) a week ago; previously a 3.25l fifth behind Sujet in a rated race at Killarney and is worse off at weights here; would probably prefer softer ground.
