9st 2lb

J: Daniel Muscutt

T: James Ferguson

Tongue tied all starts; beat a good one on debut at Newcastle (1m, AW) last December and regained winning thread in quite valuable handicap at that track (1m2f) in May; gelded after weakening in 1m4f Royal Ascot handicap in June and weakened again on comeback at York (first-time cheekpieces) 18 days ago; blinkers tried this time and he's not one to give up on just yet.

T: James Ferguson

Beat subsequent Group winner Merchant on his debut and kicked off handicap career with a third and a first over 1m2f; 6lb higher than for the last of those wins but he was only 13-2 at Royal Ascot (1m4f) and has been gelded since that 10l defeat; could still be open to further progress and cheekpieces join his regular tongue-tie.

J: Oisin Murphy

Two wins and placed both starts in between; favourite for handicap/turf debut at Sandown (1m2f, good) in April but found himself with far too much to do against Sing Us A Song and made good late inroads to be third of 12; built on that with a Newcastle win (1m2f, AW) and, judged on the Sandown run in particular, looks a tempting proposition for 1m4f.
