Too green to do himself justice at Kempton on his debut in December (7f); this well-bred 420,000gns yearling has been gelded since and should appreciate the longer trip; stable also runs Invincible Duke.

Comfortably on top at the finish on his Newcastle debut (7f) 16 days ago having initially looked green when asked for his effort; that form nothing special and he has to concede a penalty to some useful opponents so he will need a big step forward today; given his pedigree that's not out of the question.

Placed in May/June in his first two handicaps (1m/1m1f, good to firm/good) and he's of interest on that form; two lesser runs have followed (1m2f, good to firm/soft) and he has something to prove, but this 3yo remains lightly raced and is in top hands; not written off.

J: Warren Fentiman

Has looked a bit quirky but his close second at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) in June shows he's capable off this sort of mark; never a threat on quicker ground at the Newmarket July meeting but it was a hot 3yo only handicap; returns from two months off, minus the blinkers he's worn on last two starts and with his yard in excellent form; going softer than good would be an unknown but there's still a feeling he might have a bigger performance in him.

Dual turf winner but has mixed record since his emphatic win at Ffos Las (1m, good) last August; didn't live up to market expectations on Doncaster reappearance (good to soft) 12 days ago but he missed the break and may have needed that run; should be sharper this time and has possibilities if he can rediscover his spark.
