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.

Promising second on Leopardstown debut last October (7f, yielding to soft); raced keenly and in front over 1f out when run out of things late on at Navan (1m2f, heavy), finishing third; collared late over 1m at Bellewstown last time; stays well despite a pedigree more geared to shorter distances.

Excellent effort on debut at Leopardstown (7f, yielding to soft) in October when beaten 0.75l into second; raced keenly and in front over 1f out when run out of things late on at Navan (1m2f, heavy) 12 days ago, finishing third; speedily-bred so big player down in trip.

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.

Pick of three juvenile efforts when staying-on second in Killarney maiden over a mile in testing conditions; too keen and didn't get home over 1m2f on last month's Navan return so will need to settle better to see out this longer trip and others look better handicapped.

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.
