Ballinrobe maiden (9.5f, gd-yld) winner for Jessica Harrington in May; ran well in a couple of handicaps since but modest first start for this yard at Thurles 11 days ago; blinkers return but softer ground is a query.

Sole success came in a maiden at Ballinrobe back in May (9.5f, gd-yld); good third at Cork off 2lb higher on penultimate (1m, good); didn't back that up back there on latest; visor goes on now; yard enjoyed big win at Leopardstown on Saturday.

Form & Verdict
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.

Maiden with solid placed form on last three starts; got this trip okay on handicap debut at Limerick, where he was readily outpaced by a Joseph O'Brien-trained winner; that form took a few hits at Galway, but good chance of being in the three again here.

Improved for having tongue tied in recent restricted-maiden outings; went close over 9.5f at Ballinrobe and third to subsequent wide-margin handicap winner Teologia over 10.5f (good) at Down Royal; holds Hassaniya on collateral form with the latter; first handicap.

Definite step forward in first-time tongue-tie in similarly-rated Ballinrobe maiden early this month, putting it up to all-the-way winner final furlong when beaten a neck over just short of this trip (good-to-yielding); major player.

Form & Verdict
0-4 but has hinted he has races in him, including when making some late progress over 1m at the Curragh (soft) on his seasonal return; could improve for this longer trip and slightly better ground; interesting for in-form yard with decent strike rate here on the Flat (13-60).

73-rated on the Flat; ended time with Joseph O'Brien by winning in a newly applied visor at Fairyhouse (1m2f optional claimer; 11-8 favourite) in July; new trainer Harry Derham has already had one juvenile hurdle winner (Sudbury Hill) this year; noteworthy.

Ballinrobe maiden at just shy of this trip was okay but stamina test (2m1f) may have been too much at Limerick latest; back in trip with visor now replacing cheekpieces, can go well.

Recent Ballinrobe maiden run was okay but will have to improve a fair bit for this step up in trip to make an impact on second handicap attempt (3lb wrong).
