Form & Verdict
Promising third on his Kempton debut in December (6f) and more than backed up that positive impression when running away with a 7f maiden (good) at Newmarket 11 weeks ago; looked a fine prospect there and he's a strong contender despite his 7lb penalty; been gelded.

Two from two this term, namely comfortable wins in C&D maiden in April and Haydock novice event in July, both over 7f on good ground; gelded prior to last time; respected with further improvement plausible.

Form & Verdict
85,000euros yearling; tenth foal; closely related to 5f-1m winner Ocean Jewel (Group 3; RPR 109), half-brother to four winners including Mother Earth (6f 2yo/1m including Group 1; 116) and Night Colours (1m 2yo including Group 2; 103); dam 7f-1m1f winner (including Listed; 118); looks the part on paper and market confidence would be significant given he has a useful level to aim at.

Both runs over 7f at Haydock, the first more encouraging than the second; the debut run gives him good form claims if he can repeat it dropped back to 6f.

T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero

Yet to score but he went close at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in December and was only beaten 3l despite finishing in midfield at Nottingham (8.5f, good; Powerful Response third) on his return three weeks ago; shaped well that day (hit the front before fading) and he's a candidate to build on that despite being drawn widest.

Inconsistent seven-race maiden; raised his game with a close second in Wolverhampton handicap (9.4f) in December, but he faded on his return visit four weeks later; still has potential but he needs to step up again after 99 days off.

Has shown some ability over 7f/1m at novice level while shaping as if this drop to sprinting, combined with first-time hood, may well prompt progress; tongue-tie also added; interesting.

Two good runs since the visor went on last month, finishing second at Chelmsford before justifying favouritism in good style at Newcastle two weeks ago; up 4lb in a better race but on the right path now.

0-12 but she has run some good races at a modest level, including her plugging-on second at Chelmsford 16 days ago (1m2f, visored first time); likely to remain competitive.
