Tony Harmon Services Handicap

Progressive juvenile form, placed in maidens at Punchestown and the Curragh before off the mark final start over 1m at Naas in October, making all; should stay 1m2f; type to continue improving and yard have a good recent record in this.

Solid maiden runs first two starts at two and off the mark on handicap debut off 80 at Killarney in August (1m, good); didn't seem to get home in heavy ground at Listowel following month but remains open to progress back on better ground and half-brother to high-class Cloth Of Stars should appreciate this trip.

Lightly raced at two, stepping up nicely from Listowel debut to land Gowran fillies maiden over an extended mile in October, needing every yard to get back up close home (first two clear) on heavy; will be well suited by 1m2f; quicker conditions here and high enough initial mark, although open to more improvement than most

Comfortable winner of a Listowel maiden (1m, heavy) before respectable run in C&D handicap (soft); didn't count over shorter trip on last month's seasonal return at Naas, now takes a step up in trip (now really bred for it).

Decent level of form in three outings in second half of last season, notably getting up late in 7.5f Naas auction event and slightly shorter trip against him at same venue final start when staying on third in valuable auction series final; good chance he'll improve for this step up in trip and on an okay mark.
