Form & Verdict
Brother to 5f-6f winner Stone Of Destiny (RPR 109); only fifth of six on Wetherby debut (5.5f) last month, but he found stacks of improvement when going close over C&D (good to firm) three weeks later; sets a useful standard on that form and he's a strong contender.

Last three starts at Bath and went close there (5.5f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) in September; narrowly off the mark (5f, heavy) the following month and handled the rise in grade well when second (5.5f, good; kept on) on his comeback three weeks ago; return to 6f unlikely to represent a problem and should run his race again.
