Seven wins between turf and AW; won premier handicaps at Leopardstown and over C&D in 2025; went off the boil in Bahrain over the winter but best run since came at Dundalk last time; needs more from 1lb out of the handicap.

Rock solid record of 4-6 on AW including two wins over C&D; is 2lb lower than when last winning here in 2024 and wasn't disgraced when beaten 4.25l in a premier handicap at Leopardstown last month; interesting back at this venue.

Latest win was just under a year ago over 1m1f at Leopardstown, although twice went close on AW over the winter (at this trip and 1m4f); well held in two starts at Leopardstown this summer, although it was a hot race last time and this is more his level.

Best effort came in a C&D maiden in May when a 0.5l second to an 80 rated rival; ran respectably on handicap bow at Navan (1m2f, good) but struggled upped to 1m5f at Ballinrobe latest; drops back in trip now and the return to the AW is a plus.
