Sole win came in a 6f Curragh handicap off 53 in 2024; failed to beat a rival in a Navan handicap nor a Fairyhouse claimer in what were his final two starts for his former yard; hood goes on now but hard to fancy.

Sole win came over this trip in Curragh handicap in 2024; good second in first-time cheekpieces at Naas last summer but little since; would be much better off with all of these in a handicap.

Won off 13lb higher at the Curragh in 2024 and went close off 45 at Naas last summer; lacks a recent run but not one to rule out.
