Did not get the best of runs when joint-favourite at Punchestown; however, he recovered to have every chance before losing out to one of his main market rivals; cheekpieces now; each-way chance. |

Won off 4lb lower on seasonal return at Ballinrobe in May (9.5f, gd-yld); has mostly run well in defeat since but he may need a bit more respite from the handicapper. |

Won on seasonal return at Ballinrobe in May (9.5f, gd-yld); raised 7lb for that and has run well enough without really threatening to win in three starts since; probably in the handicapper's grip for now. |

Shrewd buy has won handicaps over this trip at Gowran and last month at Listowel; better again off 10lb higher mark when raised in class at the Curragh, only losing second late on over 1m1f; slight drop in trip to suit and can go well again. |

Has been in mostly good form this year, winning at Roscommon (1m4f) and Navan (1m6f); probably better again when second at Bellewstown in August, despite a slow start; has a bit to find with Glittering Gem and Granville Street on last week's Thurles run. |
