Commentary

€100,000 breeze-up purchase who made a successful start to his career when getting up late at Ffos Las (6f, good to firm) in June. Has still looked a shade green when running to a similar level in novices at Salisbury and Ascot. Opening mark looks on the stiff side but yard are in great form.
