Very much caught the eye on his 7f Catterick debut (good to firm) and confirmed that promise when drawing clear for hand riding at Ayr (6f, good) 12 days ago; looks up to defying a penalty.

In good hands but ran green and achieved very little when remote last of four on his Brighton debut (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago; this more conventional track may see him in a better light but he's a hard one to make a case for.
