Down the field in three maiden/novice runs but he proved a different proposition on his handicap debut last September (6f, AW; first run after wind surgery), landing a gamble in emphatic fashion; followed up, again easily, in a selling handicap at Thirsk one week later; came up short off his revised mark at Newcastle five weeks ago (first run for 193 days); better than that but dropping to 5f asks a new question of him.

Much improved sent handicapping after wind surgery, easily winning 0-65s over 6f at Lingfield (AW) and Thirsk (soft) last September; this represents a significant hike in grade but there's almost certainly more to come from this very lightly raced 4yo.

Made a winning start to his AW career in a 5f Chelmsford nursery in August 2024 and shaped well when pitched into a Group 3 over 6f at Kempton just a week later, impressing with his headway into contention before his effort flattened out (raced keenly); not seen since but retains plenty of potential as a sprint handicapper, for all it would be understandable were this outing to be needed; the betting should provide more clues in that regard.
