Form & Verdict
Promising third on debut at Windsor (1m2f, good; hood) in April; fifth in both subsequent runs but the latest was in a hot maiden at Yarmouth (11.4f, good) when he kept on quite well; has been gelded since but sets the standard on this switch to AW and still has potential; key player.

Won a beginners' at Tramore on chase debut on his penultimate start but it was a low-key run when sent off favourite for a handicap hurdle at Wexford last week; workable mark if he can bounce back (went close off mark of 100 last summer) and return to this sort of trip will probably help.

Has worn a hood in both his runs; promising start when fifth at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) last month and he built on that when finishing well to score in similar conditions at Pontefract (RPR 75); this is tougher under a penalty but he has a good pedigree and is open to more progress on this step up in trip; respected.

Disappointing favourite at Goodwood (1m2f) in sole 2yo run for Godolphin; left Charlie Appleby for 60,000gns in February; withdrawn (unseated rider and got loose) on his intended reappearance but showed plenty of promise with his eyecatching fourth at Windsor (1m) five weeks ago; finished well in that race and has claims if he can build on that on this step up in trip.
