Odds of $51.00 and finished 8th last start at Curragh but competing in a lower grade. Does take a while to get into stride. Difficult to warm to at present.

Resuming after a spell. Odds of $301.00 and mediocre display when 11th last run at Leopardstown but matched against less formidable competition. Very unlikely.

Back from a spell. Jumped at $15.00 and finished 5th last start at Naas but was a debutant last start. Facing weaker opposition. Back to a shorter distance. Very unlikely to shake these.

First up after a break of 40 weeks. At $5.50 ran 5th last run at Leopardstown but having second career run. Should be going forward early. Appears tested.

Tidy effort when 3rd last time at Curragh and having second career run. Expecting to settle positively. Competing at a lower class. Capable of winning this.
