A fair 7f/1m maiden for Peter Chapple-Hyam in 2025; changed hands for 7,000gns and he's finished ahead of only one rival in two runs for new yard this year; overall record is now 0-8 and he needs a big turnaround.

A fair 7f/1m maiden for Peter Chapple-Hyam in 2025; changed hands for 7,000gns and beat only one for his new yard in 1m Newcastle handicap 16 days ago after three months off; has a bit to prove.

Failed to win in six runs for Peter Chapple-Hyam but he finished second in handicaps at Chelmsford (7f) in August and Yarmouth (1m, good to soft; 14 ran) in October; sold for 7,000gns shortly after the Yarmouth effort; unexposed at a mile and he's one to note for market confidence.
