'Nothing of any significant note in his form since third in a Sligo maiden two seasons ago'

'Makes little appeal on form in maidens perhaps the addition of cheekpieces will help'

'Three-time turf winner, out of form since soft-ground Killarney win last October'

'Fifh of 18 over C&D on his penultimate start, could go close with a reproduction'

'Ordinary form in maidens, has struggled in handicaps over C&D and at Sligo'
