Hasn't fulfilled the promise of his 2023 2yo campaign but he was a close third off this mark at Salisbury four weeks ago (6f, heavy) and will be bang there if repeating that form.

Runaway win in a 2yo novice at Salisbury (6f, good) for Eve Johnson Houghton in 2023; mixed results in eight runs since but he was a front-running third in a conditions race in Qatar (7f) in May; on dangerous mark now back in Britain and he's not ruled out on this return to sprinting.

Never better than when just missing out at Goodwood two runs back (6f, good) and had a wider trip than Thunder Blue when finishing a head behind that rival at Windsor; thriving right now and goes on this ground.

Won this on soft in 2023 but her best form this summer has been on good to firm, winning either side of a very good second of 26 at the big Goodwood meeting in July; well below best back on soft in August and might prefer quicker ground these days.

Five-time winner (soft/good to firm); runner-up at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) in July and went close at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) next time, but she was down the field on the AW at Southwell two weeks ago (has won there); needs to bounce back but could do.
