Bettered low-key hurdle debut when keeping on for modest third of six at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) last month but needs to take another good step forward here.

Made a quite encouraging bumper debut in March 2025 but his second bumper run was disappointing and he was also well beaten when 33-1 for last month's hurdle debut at Hereford (2m3f, good).

Promising fourth in a Doncaster (2m, good) bumper on debut in March last year; however, he failed to build on that at Southwell (2m, soft) on his return in November, failing to settle and ultimately well held; steps up in trip for this switch to hurdles after another break, with hood added.

47,000euros 2yo; has useful pedigree and he made some late headway when a promising fourth at Doncaster (2m, good) in March; should know more this time and he could get involved if he can build on that debut effort.
