We always thought he was nice and he beat Diplomat in a schooling race at Fairyhouse. It's hard to really fancy one in these 3yo hurdles as they can be a bit rough and ready. We have been quite lucky with 3yo hurdlers. He is probably not as fast as Shadow Catcher but he might keep going a bit better.
