Has achieved his best form at this venue, namely when twice second (in a maiden and a handicap) in the first half of 2025; moderate form last summer; always behind at Down Royal on return from a break; appears to be the trainer's second string.

One of two for yard; some fair efforts in defeat last year but pulled up on heavy ground when last seen in November at Fairyhouse; these conditions more suitable, capable off this mark and not dismissed dropped in grade.

0-12; best efforts have come on good ground at Downpatrick at 2m2f-2m6f; beaten 28l on latest at Limerick (19.5f, soft); a bit to prove on this testing ground.

Fair form earlier in the year, notably when twice runner-up at Downpatrick; more recent efforts have left a lot to be desired; moderate third in a maiden at Downpatrick in August; down the field in a handicap at the Listowel festival.
