Form & Verdict
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.

Last won in October 2024; has been way below best in 2026 and is now rated just 26, so is 14lb out of the weights here; new visor needs to spark.

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.
