Commentary

Useful hurdler in 2024. Ran better than for a while when 12½ lengths fourth in first-time cheekpieces at Kilbeggan (2½m, good) in late-May. Ran poorly when last seen over hurdles in July, though, and has a bit to prove at present.

What the projection says

Finishes ahead of its price historically, but the delivery record alone does not predict today's finish — it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 7th of 13.
