Group 3 winner last term and as good as ever when third in a Group 2 over 1m2f earlier this month; won't mind return to further and while he has a Group 3 penalty to carry, he goes well here and gets his ground.

Form & Verdict

Dual-purpose performer who produced career-best on the Flat at Killarney last time; however, still has plenty to find and drop back in trip probably not in his favour.
