14th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest three wins at 6f/7f in early 2023 but he confirmed he's perfectly effective over C&D when running well against a next-time winner in January (first-time visor); another sound effort back over 7f since; solid claims for in-form yard. |

Five wins here including two over this trip; one of his better recent efforts when second of 11 in a 0-50 classified event over 1m here (first-time visor) 12 days ago; could go well but a losing run of 21 tempers enthusiasm. |

Ran out the easy winner of a 6f handicap here two weeks ago, recording a good Topspeed figure in the process; 5lb rise looks manageable but his stamina for 7f has to be taken on trust. |

Stayed on well to take third over C&D in September; well backed when upped to 6f for the first time at Chelmsford 15 days ago but he was too free early and didn't get home; cheekpieces now tried; still has time to do better after just nine starts. |

All runs at 5f; the odd flash of ability, including a running-on third of 14 at Southwell in September; any improvement for the extra distance would bring him into the reckoning and Hollie Doyle is a positive booking. |

Verdict
Quite a few of these are capable of having a say on any given day but perhaps ELEGANT ELLEN can confirm the promise of her second run for these connections over C&D. Things need to go right at the start but she does seem to have taken well to the AW and should have more to come at this level. As a serial winner Shamshon has to be considered and he may be the main danger ahead of Breezyandbright, Delagate The Lady and Viewfromthestars.[Emily Weber]
