|
Seventh of 9 in juvenile hurdle (50/1) at Punchestown (16f, heavy) 58 days ago. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat run.

7/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 6 months. Tongue strap back on. Still looking for first success.

Forecasts
Brave Troop (9/4), Derry Lad (10/3), Everylittlestep (5/1), Wajaaha (8/1), Magi Gal (14/1), Pale Moonlight (16/1), Not Just Any Eagle (16/1), Cleopatra's Needle (20/1), Sandyman (25/1), Persian Queen (25/1), Lady Arwen (25/1), Anycity (28/1), Adhuil (28/1), Jackandthefox (33/1), Songline (50/1), Limited Edition (66/1), Secret Sea (66/1), Music Magic (125/1)
