Gelded prior to readily making all in novice event at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) in June and improved again when second of 13 on handicap debut at York (1m2f, good to soft), again front running; in the right hands to keep up the momentum.

9st 7lb

J: Adam Farragher

T: William Haggas

Son of Highland Reel, out of a French Listed winner; built on his promising debut when third at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) in April but he flopped on the step up to 1m2f at Ripon (soft) last time; has something to prove after that but he's been gelded since and is a big player if he can recapture his penultimate form.

9st 7lb

J: Adam Farragher

T: William Haggas

He made a promising start to his career when a close fifth at Newcastle last month (1m); beaten favourite but still improved his RPR when third of 12 at Nottingham (extended 1m, soft) 24 days ago, hanging left under pressure but keeping on when running into a dead end in the closing stages; should stay this longer trip and he is a major player for last year's winning stable.
