Excellent effort on debut at Leopardstown (7f, yld-sft) in October when beaten 0.75l into second (RPR 75); speedily bred but shaped the last day like further would suit; obvious chance if he stays.

Placed four times from six starts on turf, including when nailed on the line at Bellewstown having tried to make all; reckon he'll be in the front rank again with cheekpieces now fitted, after another solid run at the Curragh; sire was classy turf horse in the US, yet to sire AW winner from limited runners; dam did win on AW.

Has run some solid races in defeat up to 1m2f; faced a tough task at Gowran last time but ran creditably; the hood worn then is left off and the drop back to 1m should be fine so is a player.

Form & Verdict
Left form of first two runs behind when staying on well for second at Killarney in October (1m, sft-hvy), earning a rating of 75, and the winner of that landed a valuable auction race at Naas on her next start; pedigree suggests this trip will suit; each-way shout at least if ready after break.

0-7; best run came when a 5l second of 8 in a Killarney maiden last October (1m, sft-hvy); shaped promisingly enough when denied a clear run back there in May (1m3f, good), but needs to rebound from dire effort at Newbury last time.

0-6 and he needs to produce more than he's managed in Ireland this spring in his first two handicaps (1m4f/1m3f, good to yielding/good); however, his trainer has an excellent 13-41 (32%) record with his British raiders in the last five years; firmly in calculations in first-time headgear.

Came up short in two starts last year but did show a glimmer at Dundalk on latest when staying on late for a modest fourth over 1m; gelded since that run and will probably be seen to better effect when sent handicapping.

Best effort in two runs last year a modest 8.5l fourth of 14 at Dundalk (1m); weakened in the closing stages on seasonal return at Navan (1m2f, heavy); a drying track could help his cause, as could the first-time tongue tie; chance.

Kept on for a 5.25l fifth of 13 in a 1m maiden here last October when sent off at 10-1; bred to appreciate this longer trip and out of a Pivotal dam so should handle softer ground; holds Irish Derby entry; could go well.

Best of three maidens came at Navan on debut in October when keeping on for a 5.25l fifth of 15 (1m, yielding); lost a shoe on return at Navan when well beaten (1m2f, heavy, 13-8 fav'); few apparent excuses at Gowran last time; gelded since then and makes h'cap bow; McMonagle prefers Kirkland Sioux.
