All five wins have come on the AW, including two at 6f last winter; highlight of turf form when third to Tango Flare here last autumn; fair form this term, but needs first-time cheekpieces to have an improving effect.

All five wins have come on the AW, including two wins at 6f over the winter; creditable efforts in two recent turf handicaps, including when midfield in the Habitat at the Curragh (6f, good) when slowly away; 12lb lower mark compared to AW and up in trip now.

Struggling on turf this season but won his last start over C&D in February and, overall, he has won five times at this venue over a variety of trips; second behind Eclairage in this last season; a return to form would come as no surprise but David Egan prefers Ipanema Queen.
