Form & Verdict
Beaten less than a length into second of seven in a steadily run novice on his Newcastle debut (6f, Tapeta; 25-1) last month; the market suggested not a great deal was expected and he also showed signs of greenness, so with the run now under his belt he has to be high on the list.

Placed in all three starts over 5f/6f on turf last year but didn't really progress; returns from ten months off having been gelded in the meantime, but he is a half brother to the Listed turf winner Royal Aclaim who also won on Tapeta, so he may improve for the different surface.
