6th, 2m four-year-old maiden hurdle, Tipperary, May 24
Did well enough in three starts on the Flat for Ger Lyons, winning a heavy-ground Gowran maiden last September on his final appearance.

He returned in a maiden hurdle that might produce a few winners on better ground at Tipperary, where he was keen early on and travelled strongly before the lack of a recent run and his early keenness told in the closing stages. He wasn't really knocked about when his chance had gone, but his jumping was okay. He has the potential to be decent over hurdles and probably handles any ground. Expect him to win a race or two.
