Sound effort to finish second last start over 480m at this track (28.87) in an A0. Boasts good form here at the journey with seven wins and six minor placings from 17 tries. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 503m at Shelbourne Park, adding to some plain results of late. Has failed to show enough to come into contention.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an A2 at Galway. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when second and beaten 3 lengths (28.97) in an A1 over 480m at this track. Can turn things around.
