Trained up until now in Britain by James Horton, winning Wolverhampton AW maiden in March and best turf run when second in Windsor Class 4 handicap (6f, good-to-firm) in May; way below that form in cheekpieces in similar Doncaster contest 12 days later; yard debut with cheekpieces left off.

Inconsistent and soundly beaten back on turf at Doncaster this month; however, this two-time turf winner was runner-up at Kempton (7f, AW) two starts ago and is not discounted off a dangerous mark.

Sibling Ataser did well for the yard; early promise on 6f debut at Wolverhampton but 5f was his trip when he had far too much pace for his rivals at Chelmsford in April; this fast track can suit on turf debut and he's likely to be giving it plenty from the front again.

Built on a promising start (here and Doncaster) when downing the odds-on favourite in style at Newcastle (7f, novice; 15-8) over a fortnight ago; switches to handicapping on this similar Tapeta surface from a workable opening mark of 83; a fascinating contender.
