Boasts some good form and justified heavy support in making a successful nursery debut at Fairyhouse (6f) last week, suited by the strong pace. Another bold bid expected despite a 9 lb rise.

Improved with each run, getting off the mark switched to nurseries in 8-runner event at the Curragh in August and then twice second at Navan (6f), edged out in first-time cheekpieces last time. Stronger headgear on now and one to consider.

Beaten just 2¼ lengths in valuable 15-runner sales race at the Curragh earlier in the month but down the field in 7f Group 3 there on Sunday. Inflated mark to deal with now back in a nursery (held off 61 at Down Royal a few starts back).

Showed more dash than on his first 2 outings returning from a 9-week break (gelded) when third of 8 in 5f maiden at Navan at the start of the month. Not so good at Naas next time but could get back on track now handicapping back up over 6f.

Improved when winning 5f Navan maiden 4 weeks ago, although possibly favoured by her position. 6f should suit but needs more again to defy her mark.

Well backed and much improved when second in maiden at Galway (7f, good) last month, but ran no sort of race at Down Royal next time. Drops to 6f with visor fitted for nursery debut.

Hasn't lived up to his pedigree/price tag but shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on second go in a nursery behind Pink Venom at Fairyhouse (6f) last week, showing plenty of speed in front and clear 2f out before fading. Down another 4 lb and could yet find a race.
