Made all to win the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) last September; good form in Dubai earlier in the year, winning a 5f handicap before a Group 3 second (6f) in February; 40-1 and well held in the Wokingham latest; others preferred for win purposes.

These big-field 6f handicaps suit him down to the ground, and having finished fourth in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood (good to soft) and the Portland at Doncaster (extended 5f, good) he led home 24 rivals in the Ayr Gold Cup (soft) last September; mostly in good form at Meydan this year but he's 10lb higher than at Ayr which is a big burden to carry.

Several good efforts in defeat against top 6f handicappers this year but he never shifted much in the weights and the return to soft ground may have made the difference when he made nearly all to win the Ayr Gold Cup recently; serious rain would bring him into the reckoning.

40,000euros yearling who has several sprint winners in his pedigree; this is his trainer's first runner since leaving Middleham last autumn and the market could be a good guide to prospects.

Six wins, all at 5f, include five on turf, most recently when making a winning reappearance at Nottingham (good) in April; slight concern that his sole run here was his worst but he's won off this mark and looks a player.

In better heart than recent form-figures suggest, shaping encouragingly at Beverley on reappearance and poorly drawn at Ascot next time; usually runs at 5f but also successful at 6f; falling in weights and has each-way hopes.
