Form & Verdict

Displayed promise on all three runs for Fergal O'Brien towards end of last season, perhaps most notably when second to a Paul Nicholls runner at Worcester (good) in April; changed hands for £5,000 in May; has a significant role to play under Brian Hughes on today's stable debut.

Form & Verdict

Free-goer who built up big lead at Worcester (good) two weeks ago but was reeled in fairly easily in the home straight and ended up beaten about 24l; this sharper track might suit but he needs to improve.
