Commentary

Opened his account over hurdle at the second attempt at Fairyhouse last winter. Also scored on the Flat at Leopardstown in August before finding only one too good contesting his first handicap in this sphere at Listowel (2m). Remains unexposed.

What the projection says

Edging ahead of its price lately — not a standalone signal; it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 5th of 18. Recent form is easing off.
