Comment: Failed to win in six starts for Joseph O'Brien and he ran poorly at Fairyhouse when last seen in June (7f, good; cheekpieces first time); subsequently changed hands for 30,000gns and new connections look to have found the perfect opening, with each of his first five starts better than anything achieved by today's opposition; obvious claims.

Comment: As good as ever when winning Beverley conditions event last autumn but hasn't made the frame in four runs in 2025; however, he's now fallen in the weights and he'll be dangerous if wind surgery has had a positive effect.

Comment: Still lightly raced for his age; won two 5f novices for Karl Burke; has not made the frame in four outings for current yard but there have been signs of promise in two recent York runs, the trip (6f) and draw seeming to count against him on latest; falling in the weights and dangerous to ignore.
