Three-time course winner at 1m and 1m4f; hasn't fired since returning from a break in July and struggled on return to AW in 1m4f handicap here on latest; needs to revive. |

Both turf wins have come over 1m; however, is of some interest based on a C&D win in February; fifth at Down Royal a fortnight ago was reasonably encouraging. |

Both previous turf wins have come over 1m but landed a 1m4f handicap at Dundalk in February; recent turf efforts leave him with a fair bit to find, but has dropped to a mark 7lb below his AW figure. |

Three-time AW winner rated 68 on the Flat; best turf runs came on easy ground on the level so was an encouraging first run over timber over C&D 13 days ago; could go closer with that under his belt, especially if there's rain. |

17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Had a question mark over the return to 1m at Salisbury recently and his third there was a remote one; had been in good form for this yard previously, winning in good style under William Pearman at Chepstow (1m2f) in June and then over 1m4f at Catterick; all three AW wins have come on Polytrack but he ran respectably in one previous C&D attempt; solid chance. |

Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop and he made it 2-3 for current yard when landing novice amateurs' race at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up another 2lb but remains well treated on his old form, and four of his wins have come over this trip; leading contender. |

Course winner; has been busy this year; fit from AW when winning at the Curragh (1m, heavy) in March; has largely remained in good form since, given a forceful ride at Roscommon (10.5f) on latest when finishing second; can go well dropped 1lb. |
