Third all three starts, the first two at this venue, over 5f on heavy and 6f on soft; beaten almost 8l behind the subsequent Marble Hill winner Great Barrier Reef on the second occasion; beaten almost as far behind the smart-looking Confucius at Naas last time; his experience should be an asset but he needs to raise his game to win a maiden.
