Added his fifth win (third on AW) when winning cosily over 6f here in January off 5lb lower (has won off a mark of 72 before); hampered when attempting to follow up over this C&D next time, finishing a 2.5l fourth; not at his best back on turf at the Curragh last time (heavy); cheekpieces on now and claims if on song. |

Very little mileage on the clock; definite promise in two of her maiden runs, the first of which was in 2023; three handicap attempts in 2025 were poor; much improved when fifth over 7f here a fortnight ago, but has a bit to find with third-placed Winemaker. |

One of his three wins came over C&D and has often run well in defeat here, too; second to well-treated types at Galway and Dundalk in later months of last year; well supported into 10-3 when third to Kitty Bear at Gowran last month. |

Four-time AW winner at 7f/1m for Jennie Candlish with his last win coming at Southwell off 70 in August; not at the same level since, but the best of three runs for this yard came last time here over 5f when 3l behind the winner; into 0-60 company now and returns to winning distance. |
