9st 7lb |
No wins from 21 races; sent off the 9-2 favourite at Gowran for stable debut under today's rider but weakened inside the final furlong to finish sixth of 16; perhaps capable of more with that run under his belt considering his strength in the market that day. |

First reserve; Made a breakthrough with AW win in January; followed that with two moderate runs at Dundalk and two poor runs over hurdles; fair fifth over C&D on latest; first reserve. |

Made a flying start to his career with this yard when successful over 1m on stable debut on AW off 51 in January in a first-time hood; well below that level in two subsequent runs at Dundalk, and his two recent efforts over hurdles were not amazing either. |

No win since scoring off 2lb higher at Naas (1m, yielding) over two years ago; promising seasonal comeback second at Navan in March (1m2f) but 1m4f looked beyond her at Limerick last month; back to probably her optimum trip. |

Dual Flat winner was a good second of 15 on hurdles bow at Downpatrick in September (2m2f, yielding) and would have made the winner work for it if not unseating his rider at the last at Tramore in April (2m, soft); of concern is that the worst of his three hurdle runs came over C&D in October when a 21l sixth of 13 but could go well; well beaten on Flat when last seen. |
