Cost 300,000gns as a yearling; apprentice-ridden and easy-to-back first time out over 6f at Naas; faded to finish seventh of 12, fourth of five in a group headed by third-placed Pickersgill; picked up further experience when runner-up over 5f at Dundalk in November; return to 6f should suit; fair prospects of reversing form with Pickersgill.
