11st 12lb

J: Ricky Doyle

T: Eoin Griffin

Quirky sort who can sometimes be reluctant to race; got a deserved first win after a series of fine runs in defeat at Punchestown in January (2m6f, soft to heavy); beaten just a neck back there next time; bagged another win at Thurles earlier this month, rallying to get back up by a nose despite rider dropping his whip; up 7lb but in great form.

Gained a deserved first win in 2m6f handicap at Punchestown (soft to heavy) following a series of fine runs in defeat; refused to race at Fairyhouse next time; was again reluctant to line up at Punchestown latest but ran a cracker to be beaten a neck; big player but comes with risks attached; new headgear.

Gained due reward for a series of placings with nicely improved showing in first-time cheekpieces to beat Folly Master a ready 5.5l over 2m6f at Punchestown last month on soft-to-heavy; 6lb worse off with that rival here but another big run expected.

Extended a sequence of placings when third at Fairyhouse; stays well; needs to find a little extra, addition of cheekpieces may help.
