Form & Verdict
A short head behind Miss Brazen when seventh at York last time, having made a winning reappearance at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) earlier in May; those efforts were an improvement on his 2yo form and he's bred to do even better in due course; one of two strong contenders trained by Michael Dods.

Prominent racer; two good runs back from her eight-month absence, headed close home at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) two weeks ago; that form is working out well and he has earned the 2lb rise; bold bid can be expected.

Has run just four times and he looked a useful prospect when easily winning a Pontefract novice (5f, good to firm) on the third of them last summer; only third of eight when odds-on for York nursery two months later, but he's been gelded since and may well have untapped potential; interesting.
