Thrice-raced colt who is showing good progress; placed twice for Ollie Sangster, including in the Windsor Castle, then readily won Listed Rose Stakes at York (5f Listed) for new stable; withdrawn from the Flying Childers due to soft ground, campaigned on good to firm otherwise; top on the figures and could well have a lot more to offer; respected.
