Commentary

Developed into a smart chaser as a novice, winning all 3 completed starts, notably Grade 1 at Sandown. However, had been found wanting in the latter stages first 3 starts last season before cutting out alarmingly quickly in first-time headgear/handicap bow at Cheltenham Festival on final start.
