Form & Verdict
Belied 20-1 odds when going close on debut at Carlisle (5f, good to soft) 12 days ago; he wasn't stopping at the line at that stiff track and there's every chance 6f will suit; leading claims.

Dual 6f winner, latterly a Haydock nursery on good to firm in August; respectable efforts in defeat since, including on good soft, and down to only 1lb above the mark he defied at Haydock.

Off the mark in Hamilton maiden (good; second start) in June and won a Haydock nursery (also 6f; good to firm) in August; first attempt at 7f came in a warm York handicap and looked like that experiment was worth repeating back at 6f last time; respected on AW debut.

Made it two wins from his five starts when landing Haydock nursery (6f, good to firm) last month; merely mid-division at York since but in a hotter race than this; has shown promise on good to soft; has a chance.

Form & Verdict
15-2, made the running when promising third on last month's debut at Pontefract (6f, good to firm); this well-bred colt is open to improvement and could have a big part to play.

Hasn't built on a 6f win at Pontefract last summer, and two runs for his current yard have been some way below par; falling in the weights but needs to turn over a new leaf.

Clear signs of ability in two runs (6f/7f) last season, racing too freely for his own good (beaten favourite on second occasion); still has potential and now returns from a break; should stay 1m (dam 1m2f winner); might be the answer.
