No sign of winning potential in three qualifying runs at 6f-1m2f on testing ground; mid-field on handicap debut at Roscommon, not beaten far; beaten favourite at Down Royal on Friday, 7f looked inadequate then, may do better now if cheekpieces do the trick
Comment
Beaten favourite at Down Royal on Friday, 7f looked inadequate then, may do better now

Modest form in maidens; similar story on seasonal return and handicap debut at Navan (1m2f, heavy) in March; promising second at Ballinrobe, seemingly appreciating better ground; closely matched with Pliny on Navan run; holds an obvious chance, with the form of the Ballinrobe race working out well
Comment
Promising second at Bellewstown, closely matched with Pliny on Navan run, obvious chance

Has dropped a long way in the ratings; well exposed but has a decent chance in a race of this standard, especially since he finished in front of Accelereight (improved last time) at Navan in March.
