Second of 14 in a Wexford bumper, last month, following a couple of decent efforts in bumpers at Limerick and Punchestown last year, both over 2m.
Pulled up on his first two outings in point-to-points and beaten over 36L when third at Lisronagh in April before, second of 11, beaten 4½L in a Tiperary bumper in May and looking like there is more to come.
Modest Point-To -Point efforts this year, before 5L win last day over 3m on good ground. By Dubai Destination, related to Ittirad and top Japanese chaser, Meiner Arsene.
Fourth of 12, beaten 8¾L following a pulled-up and a heavy 76L defeat in Listowel maiden hurdle in June. Sent off at 100/1 (twice) and 66/1 on three starts.
Encouraging third of seven in Wexford bumper last day, after looking well beaten in latest point-to-point but ran out a lucky winner thanks to leader falling and bringing down the second.
Sire, Sendawar, related to American Trilogy and will need a market check, given the yard and the jockey.
€14,000 yearling, by Big Bad Bob, related to multiple NH winners, Bob Le Beau and Honey Pound.
Arakan half-brother to a sprint winner, and hasn't offered much encouragement on any of three starts over hurdles so far.

No impression and well beaten on two bumper starts so far, the last one being in February.
Sire, Gold Well, unraced brother to Montjeu, dual-purpose sire; promising start with few jumpers including Holywell, Johns Spirit and Sausalito Sunrise. Disappointing on debut at Limerick, but quickly brought back to the track.
