3yo; Curragh maiden winner (7f, good) last term ran a fine race behind Tim Toe on his seasonal return at Listowel (1m, good) and that rival ran a cracker off 91 in the Ascot Stakes on his next start; this longer trip should suit and he's interesting on handicap debut.

3yo has won two of his four starts; scored in a Curragh maiden on debut (7f, good); came from the back to score by 1.25l in a valuable Leopardstown handicap on latest (1m1f, good) and the runner up was a big eyecatcher at Goodwood on Tuesday; should stay 1m4f on breeding but 3yos haven't got a great record in this race and he's 9lb higher now.
