Form & Verdict
Started career with a 6l second behind subsequent Listed winner Havana Anna in a C&D maiden in June, way clear of the third; lost a prominent place before staying on late again to take second behind a 50-1 chance at Cork ten days ago; should be a sharper, and this looks like an ordinary maiden for the venue.
