Lightly raced 4yo (3-6 on turf) whose latest win came when when just getting up to beat 26 rivals in the Irish Lincoln at the Curragh (1m, soft to heavy) in March; again ran well when second of ten in the Spring Cup at Newbury (1m, soft) the following month and respected on AW debut (half-brother to a Tapeta winner).

Well beaten in the Lincoln in March on sole outing this term (1m, good to soft) but he was runner-up in two major handicaps (both 1m on soft) during a light campaign last season and yesterday's rain is a major positive for his claims; capable of a big performance.

Eight months off (has a good record fresh) before second of eight behind a progressive filly at Redcar (1m, good) six days ago; second of three in one start on Polytrack so has to prove himself on Tapeta, but shortlisted if repeating that latest effort from the same mark (due a 1lb rise).

Began 2023 with a pair of AW wins, notably the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton (RPR 106); also ran a fine race at Newcastle in June (1m) and this month's fifth in a 1m Listed race at Kempton was another fair effort; stamina for today's trip not assured but he won't be far away if it sparks anything extra from him.
