11st 12lb

J: Conor Stone-Walsh

T: Paul Nolan

Sent off at 6-1 on debut at Naas (2m, soft to heavy), and while only seventh it wasn't a run devoid of promise; returned from break when fading into a 6.25l fifth over 2m4f at Wexford for his hurdling debut (good to yielding); could improve for that run and big player if so.

Sent off at 6-1 on debut at Naas (2m, sft-hvy) and while he only finished seventh, it wasn't a run devoid of promise; pedigree suggests he'll improve for better ground and he's an interesting runner for local yard.
