Seemed to run okay over 7f here last October but he hasn't built on it in two handicaps since; down in the weights but something to prove on this first crack at sprinting.

J: Dougie Costello

T: Thomas Faulkner

Won off 7lb higher over C&D last May but that is his sole win from 16 starts and he's been well held in his three runs this season; visor worn last time is removed and he needs to raise his game significantly back on AW.

4 yo Colt

OR: 60

Form & Verdict
He stepped up on his novice form to win a C&D handicap (Magicinthemaking second) in October off a 5lb lower mark, coming from well back to score cosily; less good twice since, pulling hard at Wolverhampton when last seen in November (cheekpieces added, retained); gelded afterwards; still has potential and he's more appealing than most.

Done the bulk of his winning on AW (6-26), but one of his two turf wins came over C&D (from 8lb lower) in August 2024; in fine fettle, with form figures of 322, since returning to turf, beaten just over 2l by Mumayaz at Leicester (6f, good to firm) latest; should give his best.

Multiple wins on AW and turf; has done well for this yard and his 6f turf form in 2025 certainly bears scrutiny; respectable efforts back on grass of late and while not at full strength in either, he'll be suited by this stiffer test at 6f providing there's a good pace; form chance.

No win on turf since September 2024 but he ran well for third at Thirsk (6f, good) two weeks ago, form that has been boosted by the winner and second running well in big fields since; one to be interested in off the same mark.
