Represents major connections; only midfield at Redcar last month but seemed green, met a spot of trouble and gave the impression 6f was possibly on the sharp side; should improve upped to 7f with the experience under his belt; shortlisted.

Prominent in the market for all three runs; overcame an awkward start to win his maiden on the AW (7f) but couldn't concede weight to a Stoute-trained winner (disappointed since) when upped to 1m at Lingfield; doesn't look obviously well handicapped on his bare achievements to date but clearly open to improvement for his top yard.
