★ Recent form analyst notes

  • Pos 7 6 Apr Fairyhouse

    Settled in the pack early - driven on but making no headway from 6 out and unable to find more from 4 out - dropped right away to finish last of the runners

  • Pos PU 10 Mar Cheltenham

    Settled towards the back - stumbled severely at the 12th - equipment shifted and eased out of contention before the following fence

  • Pos 11 15 Feb Punchestown

    Sat close to the front pack - 5th 4 out then pressed for effort - soon lost ground finishing 11th

  • Pos 3 17 Jan Navan

    Up with the front pair on the rail - blundered 2nd - nudged forward at the 9th - driven into 3rd three out and unable to close on those ahead - stayed on at the one speed to finish third
