J: Tom Marquand

T: William Haggas

Made a promising debut at Newmarket (6f, good to firm; strong form) last August; plenty went wrong at York on his second start and he showed his true colours when comfortably on top at the finish at Leicester when last seen in October; appeared to win that race in spite of the drop back to 6f and soft ground and he brings considerable potential to this handicap debut.

Got off the mark at the eighth attempt in Chelmsford nursery (7f, AW) last November on his second AW start, and he again had plenty in hand when following up at Kempton (1m, AW); needs to transfer that improvement back to turf but he did show promise on grass last season; not ruled out.
