Displayed plenty of ability in his five-race 2yo campaign and well backed ahead of last month's reappearance at Sandown (5f, good), where he was a 3l sixth of nine having been slowly away and denied a clear passage; could have a part to play if things pan out more favourably today.

Midfield in big-field nursery at York's Ebor meeting (6f, good to firm) last August when last seen; gelded since; however, close third in a nursery at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to soft) previously, showing good pace, and he's in the picture on that form; also effective on good/good to firm.

Split reopposing pair Utmost Respect and Shaman Champion when eighth of 23 in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot; good third of 11 in 6f nursery debut at Glorious Goodwood but Shaman Champion was just ahead in second on that occasion; meets that rival on 2lb better terms this time and there shouldn't be much between them.

Won a warm conditions race at Beverley (5f, good) on second start and beaten about only 4l when eighth of 23 in the Listed Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) last time; open to improvement now up to 6f on nursery debut and he's respected.
