Form & Verdict
Best of two maiden runs was finishing 6l behind subsequent Group 3 winner Mission Central at the Curragh (6f, good); outclassed in a Group 2 back at that track in August (7f, good); slowly away and always behind in the Goffs Million most recently (7f, soft); cheeckpieces go on now and he could get involved back at this level.

Both wins have come over 6f at Naas on yielding and good ground; well held in the Bold Lad over C&D (yielding) on latest but may have needed that after three months off; handles soft ground and could go well.

Good second on debut over C&D in October before going one better at Navan (6f, soft) ten days later; needed return at Cork and ran okay in premier handicap over C&D 86 days ago; could figure if stepping forward again.

Ran to a similar level in four starts for Aidan O'Brien and was returning from a wind operation when third of nine in a C&D novice (first-time visor and tongue-tie) on his stable debut 18 days ago; better is needed from his opening mark on this handicap debut.

Showed a consistent level of form in four defeats (6f-7f) for Aidan O'Brien, whom he left for 24,000gns; has definite form claims but he's undergone wind surgery, sports new headgear (tried blinkers on second run) and has been off since October; market confidence would be welcomed.
