Third foal; closely related to 1m winner Almaqaam (including Listed; RPR 116), half-brother to Listed-placed 7f/8.6f winner Saleymm (including AW; 112); dam 1m2f (Listed) and 1m4f winner (110); entered in Irish 2,000 Guineas and makes considerable appeal on paper.

Rose through the ranks last season, winning back-to-back handicaps at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) and Sandown (1m2f, soft); took the next step forward when landing Group 3 honours at Sandown (1m2f, good) on seasonal return (a race commonly won by high-class performers); enters the big league now but further improvement is by no means ruled out for a four-year-old having just his eighth start.

Beaten favourite in Listed race at Goodwood on last appearance but was far from disgraced, especially as he could have done with a stronger pace; progressive otherwise and landed a notable handicap at Newbury (good to firm) prior to following up over C&D (soft); remains of major interest.
