Improved from run to run over the summer, most recently chasing front two throughout when beaten 4.5l in steadily-run auction maiden over this trip at Gowran last month; place claims again.

Only beaten 6l despite a slow start before a distant third when not getting a clear run at the Curragh last month; form boosted by runner-up winning since and good chance this slightly longer trip will suit.

Caught the eye making late gains after blowing the start on debut at Roscommon (7.5f, yielding); senior rider now takes over and this step up in trip looks almost certain to suit; could go close if getting away on level terms.
