Likeable 3yo; won AW maiden last year; good fourth in hot Naas handicap over 1m before making most to beat in-form rival over 1m1f on probably unsuitably soft ground here; had that rival a little further back when fourth in 1m1f premier handicap at the Curragh, where missing a beat at the start proved costly in a race where the leaders didn't come back; takes on older horses for the first time.

Form & Verdict
Rapid improver of late, twice runner-up on AW last autumn and has reappeared for back-to-back wins in 1m handicaps at Limerick and when running away late on under today's rider here last month; every chance of staying this extra furlong and could still have more to offer despite 16lb rise for two wins.

Bolger-bred Teofilo gelding; good fourth in a hot Curragh maiden last year; okay comeback over 1m at Leopardstown, and soft ground probably the reason for a poor display on handicap debut at same track; gelded since and steps up in trip here.
