Maiden who ran best race to date when second in a 14-runner Listowel maiden (6.2f) last June. Never kicked on thereafter, albeit finding competition too hot when last of 6 in nursery at Navan (5f) in September. This more suitable.

SENADO SQUARE was much improved on his exploits in a trio of maidens as a juvenile when finishing a good second on handicap debut at Dundalk 37 days ago, and with the prospect of more to come, he gets the nod to continue the good work switched back to turf. Not Too Real Bad and Redshore City are a couple of others to consider.
