3-8 at Dundalk, 1-11 on turf; sixth of 12 behind Cuban Grey at Dundalk before finishing in rear at the Curragh in June; this is likely to prove too competitive for him.

Wins in his turn, albeit five of his six victories have been on AW; below par at Ayr last time, but solid runs in 6f turf handicaps earlier in the summer; this is start number 16 of the year.

The bulk of his winning has been done on AW but he did win a 5f handicap at the Curragh last August; recent efforts need bettering but he would seem likely to give his running.

Form & Verdict
Useful sprinter won twice last year over 5f at Cork but has been absent since that last success in July; previously won a C&D maiden and is off a 6lb lower AW mark so has to be considered even though he lacks a recent run.

All three wins over 5f, including pair of Cork handicaps last summer; didn't threaten in valuable Curragh handicaps last twice, including over extended 6f last month; tongue-tie.

Won twice last year over 5f at Cork and also finished second to Keke here in the Rockingham, a fine effort for a horse of his age; not at his best at Dundalk on first start this year; down the field behind Genesis in the Rockingham last month.

Won twice last year over 5f at Cork and also finished second to Keke in this race, a fine effort for a horse of his age; not at best at Dundalk on only start this year; however, potentially interesting now that he is reunited with the champion jockey who rode him to a Cork win off just one pound lower last July.

Won over C&D plus twice on turf in 2025 and has run well in defeat off 1lb higher the last twice, including back here; should be involved again but drawn widest isn't ideal.
