Off the mark on second start (5f, good to firm) and ran respectably on handicap debut when beaten 3l at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to soft; not clear run) in August; gelded before sharing second (5f, AW) on reappearance in March and again didn't have the cleanest shot when fourth at Bath one month later; not ruled out.

Returned from seven months off (gelded during his absence) with a dead-heat for second at Wolverhampton last month (6f); his win came on good to firm and this extended 5f should suit; not discounted.

Pulled hard in three runs after winning a small-field maiden last summer, over 6f on his final two runs, and remains relatively unexposed; perhaps the gelding operation will settle him down and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the market.

Form & Verdict
Made a promising debut when second of nine on last month's Salisbury debut (5f, good to firm; 18-1), but was well held at Bath (5.7f, good) a fortnight ago; return to this trip should suit but he now has a bit to prove.

Kickstarted 2026 with gutsy 5f Southwell success in April but suffered early interference when ninth in 5f Chester handicap nine days ago; it would come as no surprise to see him bounce back.

Effective on good to firm ground but his best turf results have come on a slower surface; got the better of Ambishio at Southwell on reappearance four weeks ago; found plenty for pressure there and should give it another good go.

Finished behind Hello Isla over C&D 19 days ago but he ran creditably in the circumstances and new blinkers could prompt extra; dropped 2lb and he's one to consider.

Beaten around 5l when third of four at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) but he went backwards from that at Chester (6f, good) on his next start; reported to have never travelled when beating only one rival on handicap debut at Leicester (5f, good) five weeks ago and now steps back up to 6f for AW debut.

Like Dandy's Rocket, his second start stands out and he's been gelded before switching to nurseries; this half-brother to five winners makes more appeal though.

Some promise when third of seven on her Kempton debut (6f, AW) last month, but no improvement when beating one home at Windsor (6f, good) 11 days ago; needs to step up and not sure dropping in trip is the answer.

Found things happening too quickly for her in the home straight at Kempton on debut 12 days ago (6f), but she was plugging on for third and can build on that effort in time; stable's record here means she can't be discounted.
