8st 9lb |
Hacked up in an early-season 6f Naas event last year on soft-to-heavy, earning a 15lb hike in the ratings; lost form subsequently; was back on a reasonable mark for his reappearance in the same Naas contest this year, and took full advantage; has got away with a 4lb rise this time; form boosted by runner-up Exceeding at Leopardstown on Wednesday. |

Won over this trip at Naas early in the season on soft-to-heavy; seen just twice since, latest when (supported) slowly away and keen when never featuring at Fairyhouse last month; ground in his favour here and could step up on those efforts. |

Beat Methgal by a short head at Leopardstown (7f, yielding to soft) to gain his second win from 29 starts; raised a fair 3lb for that but overall form suggests he's not certain to back it up. |

15th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |

Record of 1-28 is off-putting; posted an excellent display from 6lb outside the handicap at Naas on seasonal return when second of 15; let favourite backers down at Navan next time when never better than midfield; hard to trust. |

1-27 record is off-putting but potentially interesting now after an excellent display from 6lb out of the handicap at Naas on his seasonal debut; kept on well to challenge the well-fancied winner Noble Nation with a useful yardstick in third; this track is similar in character to Naas. |

Useful sprinter who is suited by soft conditions; third in opening two 6f runs this season here (heavy) and at Naas (soft); upped in trip when runner-up over C&D last time; was 4.75l behind winner Red Charlie that day but now 14lb swing at the weights, although he had race-fitness on his side that day. |

Useful sprinter in this grade; suited by testing conditions; worth a shot at 7f after two good runs at 6f in the last fortnight; third here with Merisi Diamond back in sixth; same place at Naas with Eichan San among those behind, not guaranteed to uphold that form. |

Remains a maiden after 14 races; positives can be taken from last month's C&D second, which gives him an edge over several members of this field; that was on soft and better ground should suit on the evidence of his Dundalk form; however, he is not well treated relative to I'm Spartacus based on a clash in March. |
