His 2yo season was chaotic at times, including when winning a 1m AW novice, but there was no sign of awkwardness here on final 2yo start, nor when bearing up well in a tight finish to 1m Listed AW race on return; made most of the running and kept on steadily in 1m2f Listed race at Newmarket (good) since and this step up in trip should suit on pedigree; needs to find much more but the yard's outsiders have proved well worth a look in this race.
