OR: 84

Form & Verdict
Ended 2024 in poor form for Keiran Burke and was a very disappointing favourite on stable debut three weeks ago (jumped poorly); arrives here with a lot to prove but might be aided by the refitted cheekpieces and it will be interesting to see whether his supporters wade in again.

C&D record now 7113 following July's win off 8lb lower (Fane Court 7l behind) and just as good a form effort in defeat last time; no margin for error off current mark, but in good enough heart to remain competitive.

Kept on for very respectable third of seven here (2m1f, good) on handicap debut seven weeks ago; that was her first run since last summer and today's longer trip ought to suit; one to consider.
