Bravely overcame late carriage off a true line to oblige at Carlisle latest (2m3f, good to soft); thought one for longer trips with the EBF Final a named target, and racing sufficiently forward here to compensate for the drop to 2m may put her on a collision course with such as Our Peggy.

Beaten 24l and about 20l in his two handicaps but both were over 2m on good to soft, and this Irish point runner-up ran his best race under rules in a good-ground bumper; back on this surface and raised to 3m, he could be capable of a lot better; the market should be enlightening.
