Showed improved effort here last time when beaten 6.5l behind Minnie Hauk (1m2f, good); that was a step in the right direction but it's still hard to see him playing any major role.

Won at Dundalk before a creditable third behind Delacroix and Lambourn in last year's Ballysax Stakes; confirmed a good standard when fourth of 12 in the Hampton Court Stakes at Royal Ascot; ran better than finishing his position implies when eighth of nine in the Saratoga Derby; unsuited by soft ground in Naas event won by Beset.

Form & Verdict
Cost 220,000gns as a yearling; shaped well when staying on for fifth of 11 behind a shorter-priced stablemate in a C&D maiden on debut; still looked a bit raw and was outstayed when third over the extended 1m2f on second start; sets the standard but could be vulnerable to one of the newcomers.
