Chased home today's rival Copacabana at Navan in February; had little trouble beating a subsequent maiden hurdle by 12l at r the same venue the following month; could go well if ready.
Won a Wincanton bumper for Nicky Henderson in January 2024; long layoff before being tailed off on hurdles debut at Punchestown in April; fair sixth at Galway on first start for Enda Bolger; ran better than implied by his finishing position in a rated novice chase at Punchestown.
Placed in all four races over hurdles; beaten favourite at Downpatrick on final start before a break; needs to jump better and to raise his game generally.
Impressive Galway bumper winner in October last year and landed Grade 2 bumper at the DRF in February; had today's rival Copacabana 2 1/4l away in fourth when third to Bambino Fever in Grade 1 bumper at Punchestown; no match for Koktail Brut at Punchestown; form franked by the winner in landing the Royal Bond.
Beat Burrows Drive at Navan on debut and then contested the season's two Grade 1 bumpers won by stablemate Bambino Fever; has a bit to find with Colcannon on Punchestown running, and that rival enjoys an edge in respect of hurdling experience.
Appreciated good ground when winning a bumper at Bellewstown in April; following month, disappointed on hurdles debut in Down Royal maiden; fair fourth at Navan last month after a break; needs to reverse Navan bumper form with Colcannon.
Limerick bumper winner subsequently not disgraced in a Grade 2 bumper at Leopardstown and when mid-field in the Champion bumper at Cheltenham; should do better than that, but hard to see him reversing bumper form with Colcannon or Copacabana.
E78,000 3yo; third foal; half-brother to a French 2m1f hurdle winer; dam French maiden jumper, half-sister to winners including Kotkita (Grade 1 2m2f hurdle); interesting prospect for Henry de Bromhead, tough introduction.
Point-to-point winner last season for Cormac Doyle and having been touched off on bumper debut at Limerick in December went one better following month in a similar contest (heavy); beaten favourite on hurdling debut but has a clear chance here on form linked to Grade 2 second Blake.
Seventh foal; half-sister to winners including the Dan Skelton-trained pair Boss Man Fred and Wild Romance; dam point winner; won a seven-runner mares' maiden in February on yielding; tough task against geldings here
