Failed to win a point in seven starts; not bad efforts in two bumpers and initial two maiden hurdles; well beaten behind a classy rival over 2m here last time; this trip can suit better but has a fair bit to find.

Glimmer of ability in point-to-points; good hurdling debut when 1.5l third at Limerick (2m3f, good to yielding); faded into fourth late on at Tramore (2m, soft); probably prefers better ground; place chance.

Glimmer of ability in point-to-points and solid effort on hurdling debut when a 1.5l third at Limerick (2m3f, gd-yld); drops back in trip and solid chance if he handles this softer ground (soundly beaten in two point-to-points on soft to heavy).

Mixed form in points without winning but showed some ability; not bad runs in two bumpers; hood and tongue-tie retained; possibilities.

0-7 in point-to-points; 66-1 and beaten 13l on debut in a Cork bumper (18.5f, good); tongue tie now added to hood and he drops in trip; can't be discounted in this weak race.
