★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 2 16 Apr Limerick

    Shared front spot early - settled into second behind the pacesetter - pushed along to close in before turning for home - driven into third two out - unable to threaten before the last then held on steadily to finish second

  • Pos PU 13 Mar Cheltenham

    Settled in the pack early - moved into contention approaching 7th - driven up but slipped back before 2 out and stumbled there - faded quickly and was pulled up before the last

  • Pos 2 28 Dec Limerick

    Tracked the front runner - moved to the fore after 3 out - hard at work and under significant pressure from the last - surrendered the advantage inside the final 100 yards - stuck on at one speed to finish second

  • Pos 3 14 Nov Cheltenham

    Held mid-pack early - improved to challenge for second before two out - pushed along and pressed the front pair - stayed on up the run-in to finish third
