Well held in points but much more promise in two bumper starts, finishing runner-up in a Listowel bumper before going one better at Wexford last time, making all in first-time visor (discarded); should be more to come back up in trip and warrants respect on hurdle bow.

Point winner in 2024 ran too badly to be true on rules debut in a Listowel bumper (6/4 fav) in June; better over hurdles twice since, notably at Thurles last time when first past the post over 2m6f but demoted for interference; the cheekpieces worn then are retained; should go close but has a tendency to hang left.
