Impressive maiden winner at the Curragh in 2024; promising third in Greenham Stakes last year but finished down the field in Jersey Stakes; disappointed when last of ten in Gladness on return 25 days ago; needs to come on plenty for that but still lightly-raced and handles soft ground.

E500,000 yearling; has run only three times; won a 6f course maiden on soft on only juvenile start; promising third in Group 3 Greenham at Newbury (7f, good); did not appear again after finishing in rear in the Jersey Stakes; first time with a tongue-tie.

J: Dylan Browne McMonagle

Cost 500,000euros as a yearling and created a favourable impression with a convincing win in maiden at the Curragh (6f, soft) on sole 2yo outing; good third in Group 3 Greenham at Newbury (7f, good; raced freely, kept on) on reappearance; lacks experience but has stacks of potential.

Third foal; half-brother to Listed-placed 6f winner Imperial Yellow; dam placed, half-sister to smart winners Gallagher and Quick Wit, from the family of Mohaather; merits respect with top rider taking the mount rather than sticking with Hostility.
