Bolted up over 6f here last month, beating Monastere who bids to advertise the form in the 5.40 event; should be fine with 7f; 12lb rise is challenging, same rider takes off 7lb again.

Made the breakthrough in a C&D handicap in April (good); ran to a similar level at Cork later in the month when beaten 3l into fourth; followed that with a disappointing effort at this venue, with soft ground a possible excuse; solid third behind Pete's Dream at Fairyhouse on latest; 7f might be too sharp.
