Looked quite promising as a novice hurdler for Keiran Burke in 2024-25 but was disappointing in handicap hurdles for this stable last season; given wind op before this chasing debut; visor removed after one use; needs to get career back on track.

Better in bumpers than he's been over hurdles and this season has been particularly disappointing; wore cheekpieces penultimate start and tongue-tie latest, but now it's a tongue-tie and visor.

Initial form over hurdles reads very well, having been beaten just 7.5l by the high-class Alexei and 3.5l by the useful French Ship; however, subsequent efforts have been disappointing by comparison, and was pulled up at Wincanton (1m7f) latest tried in cheekpieces (removed today); tongue-tie now added back into maiden company.

0-5 over hurdles but shaped well before fading into fifth on seasonal/stable debut at Ascot (2m3f, good), and some of last season's novice form reads well; drops back in trip and sports first-time cheekpieces here.

Runner-up in two novice hurdles (2m/2m3f) for Keiran Burke last winter but disappointed on handicap debut in March; remains unexposed but makes stable debut after eight-month absence and others have less to prove.
