Useful runner on the flat, winning at Limerick over 1m 4f before hurdling debut at Galway in July last year, finishing third behind Esperti and Champ Kiely, who has gone on to race at grade one level (third in the Ballymore).
Has since landed grade three victory at Navan before third in grade one novice at Naas two months ago, finishing behind Irish Point and Champ Kiely again.
Step up in trip could help him as he shapes like a stayer and must not be dismissed here.
