Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up finished 13th of 18 runners at Auteuil on May 18 over 3900m, on slow going 27 len behind Soligo with 70.5kg at $68. Second-up pulled up at Nancy on June 6 over 3800m. Can hit back hard here. Forgive that run and can play a major role.

Useful gelding. Comes off a 30 day let-up. Last run won by a nose Orleans on June 1 over 4000m defeating Fripon De Ballon carrying 67kg in a steeplechase. The start before that; finished second in a small field at Nimes on May 11 over 3900m, 4 len behind Universal Wind with 67kg. Certainly worth including.

Useful type. Last start finished seventh of 15 runners at Dieppe on June 19 over 3800m, on slow going 6 len behind Iphis De L'aunay with 66kg at $14. The run before finished third of 11 starters at Auteuil on May 31 over 3600m, on slow going 4 len behind Zinoa with 69kg at $11. Will take beating if at his best.

Returns from the paddock today. Finished off last campaign didn't finish the race at Toulouse February 6 2024 over 3500m. When resuming last campaign ran last at Moulins August 28 2023 over 2800m, slow track; 44 len behind Nana Gina with 55kg at $24. Rates well and don't discount lightly.
