Second Tramore success when easily seeing off nine rivals in a 2m1f handicap (soft; first win was on good) on New Year's Day; the handicapper hasn't missed him but there may be more to come for his leading Irish stable.

Reserve; improved effort when coming 13l clear in 2m1f handicap at Tramore (soft; both wins there) on New Year's Day; much higher mark here but he's low mileage and could progress again.

Won maiden hurdle over C&D in August (16.5f, good); improved form in handicaps when third at Punchestown in November; the winner landed a hat-trick in style since, while the runner-up would probably have won a Limerick Grade 2 during Christmas but for a mistake at the last; leading contender.

Won a 2m Tramore maiden hurdle in August on fourth start in this sphere; a respectable run in a Listowel novice next time but was below form in a 2m4f handicap here since; coming back to this trip may suit and not ruled out.

Steadily improved in maiden hurdles to get off the mark emphatically at Tramore in August when winning by 9l as odds-on favourite (2m, good); ran disappointingly in a novice hurdle last time, albeit up against Davy Crockett, when finished last of five; capable of better on handicap debut.
