Displayed improvement to reward strong market support over C&D (soft; first-time cheekpieces) on nursery debut in September; off since a lesser effort in October, though, and needs to prove himself on today's much faster ground.

His first run after being gelded and in new cheekpieces when justifying strong support on nursery debut over C&D last month, which was also his first run on soft; won narrowly but a 3lb rise could be manageable.

Only fifth of six on last week's nursery debut at Chepstow (5f, good) but never really had a clear shot at the leaders and, after keeping on well, was beaten under 2l; another sound effort when third of six here (6f) yesterday; will enter calculations if she contests this race.

Unable to justify favouritism when only fourth of six on nursery debut at Lingfield (7f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) last month but could still have a bigger run in him if this very different test suits.
