Very promising Curragh debut in 2024 when 0.5l behind subsequent Dewhurst runner-up Expanded; beaten 1l in a Gowran maiden in April last year on seasonal return (1m, yielding); decent fourth in a 1m1f Leopardstown maiden when last seen in August (good); gelded since then and top chance if sufficiently ready.

Form & Verdict
Lightly raced maiden went close in two January maiden runs, behind an experienced sort over 1m4f and only caught late on by a neck over 10.5f in first-time cheekpieces; something surely amiss when tailed off in a 1m4f handicap last time (reported to be post race normal); tries this shorter trip for the first time, but thereabouts at his best.

First seven runs were on AW; placed in three of five Dundalk outings for this stable, including a 3l third over this trip at Dundalk in March; made little impression at Limerick on turf debut; better ground may help.
