Form & Verdict

Latest of five wins was in the 2023 renewal of this event, after which he ran well in a Group 3 at Leopardstown and a Listed contest over C&D; not the same force nowadays and has come down a good bit in the ratings; was still capable of good form last year; not at his best on AW in the spring and back from a break here.

Form & Verdict

Three wins from eight AW starts, but 0-20 on turf; did well at Dundalk over the winter and carried that form through to soft-ground contests in the spring; second over 7f at Naas and fourth over 1m2f at Leopardstown in April (strong form); not so good lately; likes to come from off the pace.
