Form & Verdict

E320,000 yearling and 3,000gns Godolphin cast-off; well-related; down the field on only start last season; had plenty of horses behind in a 1m Curragh maiden on reappearance; failed to improve at Navan; handicap debut now; worth a check to see how the market rates his chance relative to stablemate Hell Let Loose.

Three-time turf winner and often placed but 0-22 on AW and placed only three times; hard to make a strong case on recent AW form; however, he is so much more effective on turf that a good showing is not out of the question.
