Had them well strung out in a 2m Southwell maiden (soft) in early March but that was a modest contest, for all that the second and third horses have won since, in low-grade races on the Flat and over hurdles; this 5yo may need to be on a sharp upward curve if he's to defy this initial mark.

Made the frame in a bumper; only midfield in both attempts over hurdles but appears likely to fare better in this weaker contest; similar type to stablemate Collanisi and is one for the shortlist.

Fourth in good-ground Worcester bumper on debut in October and also showed significant promise before weakening into seventh (just behind Harbour Island) in good Newbury maiden hurdle (2m, soft) in November; needs improvement over this longer trip but well worth keeping an eye on with the future in mind.

Maiden who returned from wind surgery to finish a respectable fifth on AW Flat and backed that up when 15l second in a 2m maiden hurdle at Southwell (soft) last month; a lesser effort in a handicap hurdle at Wetherby three weeks ago needs forgiving but he dips into a Class 6 for the first time now back on the Flat and has the ability to make his mark at this level; cheekpieces rejoin the tongue-tie.

Fair maiden on the Flat and he ran okay when 15l second in a maiden hurdle at Southwell (2m, soft) a fortnight ago; now goes handicapping in this code off a modest mark and he could have a part to play.

He's shown little across his seven starts but makes his handicap debut off a very lowly mark and his trainer's last two runners have won, so he's worth a second look.
