Evens, didn't need to be at best when winning 15-runner maiden at Fairyhouse (11.9f, good to soft). Off 102 days. Makes handicap debut and he's in the right hands.
First run since leaving George Scott when 3/1, career best when winning 8-runner maiden at Roscommon (12.2f, good) 35 days ago, soon clear. More needed back in a handicap but he's not yet exposed.
Thrice-raced maiden. Evens, third of 18 in maiden at Navan (10f, good) 17 days ago. Significantly up in trip for handicap debut and mark could be lenient.
Bit below form third of 10 in maiden at Clonmel (9.6f, good to soft, 3/1) 12 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Trainer going well. Makes handicap debut. Must find best form.

Forecasts
Saratoga (6/4), Delta (7/2), Kilmeaden (5/1), Kingstonian (11/2), Bryant (9/1), Sea Coral (10/1), Walk The Highline (12/1), Bibe Mus (12/1), Mister Adam (14/1)
It's probably fair to say that SARATOGA hasn't come to up expectations so fare but this step up in trip now handicapping could be the catalyst for an improved showing. Delta and Bryant head the opposition.
