Bumper winner who upped his form to another level when winning a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse in April with a subsequent winner back in third (2m4f soft); tailed off when out of his depth at Punchestown festival last time (2m3f, yielding); will likely be seen at his best over fences. |

Won the Brown Lad at Naas (2m4f, sft-hvy) in November off 119; 3.25l runner up in Pertemps qualifier at Carlisle (3m1f, soft) off revised mark in December; soundly beaten in Naas Grade 1 but bounced back with a respectable 7.25l fourth in the Pertemps at Cheltenham (3m, good), not quite getting home; could go well back in trip returned to softer ground. |

Placed over hurdles/fences in France; six races for Tony Mullins, steadily progressive until tailing off at 22-1 in 2m4f Grade 1 novice on soft going two months ago; 2m4f win in November was sandwiched by seconds over 2m and 3m1f, latterly in a six-runner Carlisle qualifier, and while it would be no shock if he remains capable of better, there is a question over his ideal trip. |
