★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 8 11 Feb Dundalk (AW)

    Hesitant leaving stalls before being urged into a rhythm just behind the front group - 4th at halfway - asked for effort entering the straight - down to 6th under pressure a furlong out - unable to find more late and beaten well home

  • Pos 2 16 Jan Dundalk (AW)

    Sluggish start - held up towards back - progress into the straight - pushed along in 5th two out - moved into second but couldn't threaten leader inside final furlong - stayed on at one gait to finish second

  • Pos 7 20 Dec Thurles

    Sluggish start and urged forward early - settled towards the back and caught a knock at the 5th before dropping out of it by the 8th - made no headway approaching 3 out and posed nothing in the straight - finished well held in 7th

  • Pos 6 26 Oct Wexford

    Hesitant to start and unhurried into stride early - settled midfield - 6th and urged on turning into straight - unable to find more from 2 out and held on late for 6th
