Form & Verdict
His second of 11 over C&D (wore cheekpieces) on reappearance in March was a new high and he bettered that when landing soft-ground Yarmouth handicap (1m) in first-time blinkers in June; off since and no headgear for this stable debut (same owners) but he still commands respect.

Keeps getting better and arrives on a hat-trick after wins at Yarmouth (final start for James Ferguson) and over C&D; heavily backed and quickened smartly to come from the rear and beat seven rivals last time; does not look overburdened by a 5lb rise, and although this is stronger he looks sure to go well again.

In and out during his light career and unproven on the forecast fast ground but he made it 3-6 when winning at Lingfield (7f, AW) last month and he's since been a good second at Kempton (1m, AW); trainer won this last year and he can be a major player if there are no surface issues.

Back from wind surgery with 7f novice win on Polytrack in 2025 and he's well treated on the pick of his later form on turf; probably handles Tapeta but he dropped right out on yard debut at York in June, following nearly a year off the track, and it's no easy matter assessing him today.
