Closely related to useful jumpers Arizona Cardinal and Destroytheevidence; displayed significant promise in two Irish bumpers this spring, latterly when clear second to well-bred Willie Mullins newcomer at Kilbeggan (good; third won next time), and commands respect on stable debut.

Flat-bred 4yo who was close second on debut at Worcester in June and finished well to go one better there the following month (also on good); has 7lb penalty here but probably won't be far away.

Half-brother to very useful Irish chaser Capuccimix; made the frame in two point bumpers in the spring but has more on his plate on today's rules debut.

Not beaten far on either start, latterly when last of five over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago, but will remain a risky option until he learns to settle much better in the early stages.

Form & Verdict

Third foal from unraced sister to bumper and high-class jumps winner Cilaos Emery; unable to justify prominence in the betting when well-held sixth over C&D (good) on debut in July and needs to have taken considerable benefit from that outing.
