Well beaten over 1m2f on handicap debut in June but looked suited by drop in trip when third at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) ten days ago; ideally needs to learn to settle better in the early stages but could still have a bigger run in him.

Maiden who offered hope when second of six in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f, AW) in February but not built on it since, including on handicap debut after four months off at Ripon (9.7f, good; first start since wind surgery) in June; others make greater appeal.
