Easy 5f win on soft ground at Yarmouth in May; fine second of 18 at Glorious Goodwood last month before looking stretched by 6f at Brighton 15 days ago; high on the list back at 5f.

Fine effort at a big price at Goodwood last Thursday and will be 3lb higher from tomorrow; has not always been the most consistent and has only gone beyond 5f twice before but will rightly be popular.

Off the mark on turf when wide-margin winner at Yarmouth (5f, soft) in May and he did well to finish within 2l of Naana's Shadow in the 3yo Dash at Epsom next time as he took a while to pick up; two lesser efforts have followed, though, and he looks vulnerable.

J: Daniel Muscutt

Won a 5f novice at Leicester as a 2yo; the handicapper has been firmly in command this year, with headgear making no difference on his last two starts; steps up to 7f and drops into Class 6 company but others are more appealing.

Showed improved form when dropped back to 5f in his second handicap to beat his 16 rivals at Nottingham (5f, good) 25 days ago, travelling strongly and winning comfortably; up 7lb but this well-related colt looks open to further progress.

Saw off 16 rivals when winning a 5f handicap at Nottingham (good) in decisive fashion in April; soft ground was a valid excuse for a lesser effort at Yarmouth one month later (gelded after); sold for 10,000gns since; still has low mileage and he's of obvious interest against exposed rivals.

Progressive of late, despite having had plenty of racing, adding to his C&D win in May (off 9lb lower) when going in at Bath last time (off 3lb lower); there's other pace in here, however, and he'll need another career-best effort.

Failed to beat a rival home at Chelmsford (5f, AW) in October but was progressive on turf prior to that; left the impression his first start for 200 days was needed when fourth at Bath (5f, good) last time and he is of interest with that effort behind him.

Gained both wins in 5.2f Brighton nurseries last summer; close second of four at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) last month, his second start this season, but didn't fire at Windsor a fortnight later; needs to respond well to first-time cheekpieces and prove himself on an AW surface.
