Progressed to win 1m2f/1m4f handicaps this season and back to form when fourth at Gowran, finishing close up behind Star Harbour; perhaps high in the weights now but hard to rule out. |

Progressive this season, winning at Navan off 65 and at this venue off 78; failing to maintain his form when well fancied to complete in a premier handicap at the Curragh contested by several of these rivals; that was too bad to be true, unwise to discount. |

In fine fettle this season, winning at Navan (1m2f, gd-yld) off 65 and on latest at Gowran off 78 (1m4f, yielding); hiked up another 9lb and moves up in grade now; unproven on properly fast ground, but this well-bred sort should go well if he acts on it. |
