Form & Verdict
Runner-up in a point-to-point; sets the standard judged on his second run under rules when fifth at Navan (tongue-tied), a race that has thrown up three subsequent winners; however, has a bit to prove after tailing off over C&D but the tongue-tie was left off that day (back on now).

Second in a point and his 22l sixth in a Clonmel maiden wasn't devoid of promise (first-time tongue-tie); can improve.

Sixth of 17 in valuable sales bumper at Fairyhouse last April; didn't build on that when midfield in strong Listowel festival bumper; sent off favourite when disappointing fifth at Limerick on hurdle bow (2m3f, soft to heavy); this demands more.
